Ok, not really but this boy is testing me to no end this past week!! He is still doing great with no accidents, walking great on a leash but has stopped listening to me and has become a hoarder. He drags EVERYTHING outside...I mean everything and if you think you put it out of his reach.....he finds a way to get to it. I have found bed sheets, shoes, plates, spoons, stuffed animals, pillows, cell phone and my kindle fire in the backyard..lucky he doesn't chew on things...he just wants them outback. I do not know how he gets these things with out us noticing LOL...anyway his latest attempt was a case of beer...I heard all this noise and go to investigate and he was trying his hardest to get it through the doggie door....he dragged a whole case of beer across the kitchen to get it out back!

I was teaching him "leave it", "come" and "stay" he was doing awesome..not anymore...he totally ignores me.

All in all he is still a good pup...just testing me I think. He is 12 weeks old and getting his last puppy shot next week (I think) so we will be doing some classes and getting out more. Where I live they are having a big outbreak in parvo and distemper (?) so the vet told us not to take him anywhere until his shots were done. Maybe it is just cabin fever :-)

I am sitting here laughing thinking I would love to see him drag a case a beer across the floor.

Wishing you the best on finding answers to you problem I have not ideas being both of my pups came to me older one was 2 years old the other was 9 months.

good luck.

This made me laugh! Lola just tried to take a sock outside with her this morning.

Haha,too bad you didn't get pics of the case of beer.

Maybe you can positively reframe this for him and turn it into an intentional game or job??

"Take the Kindle Fire, but not the BEER!"

haha this gave me a good laugh, I can totally picture myself saying the above. If it was a iPad I wouldn't say it.lol.

Meeka did the same thing to me for a week. It appeared as our training (Sit, Down, Stay) went down the tubes, What I did is I stopped training her for 2 days and picked up some better treats and it got her attention back to me. Not sure if Nanook just needs reinforment in training.

Hope it all works out.

have to say this made me laugh also.

i don't have that problem but my Maya wants to bring the outside toys and sticks inside with her

I would have loved to see a shaming pic of this

Once I left my girl Tasha in the car for 2 minutes while i carried a couple things upstairs. I actually ran up the stairs because I didn't trust her alone in the car. When I came back down to the car she had ripped open a bag of dove chocolate and swallowed a bunch of it whole, foil and all! I forgot I had it in there. Needless to say after a few panicked phone called to the vet they suggested I keep an eye on her and bring her in if there were any signs of toxicity. She was fine, and had sparkly poop for a couple days from the wrappers. The beer story is hilarious! Maybe he's planning a neighborhood doggie party the next time you're out of the house.

Pup after my own heart, he just wants to chill outside on a nice sheet, with a good ebook and have a few beers!

I have absolutely no suggestions for trying to get him to "leave it" with a doggy door. My oldest two are not huskys, but I taught them that none of their toys could go outside by just not opening the door for them until they dropped them. Now, there is always a mound of toys right next to the door, wish I taught them to put them back in the toy box. My husky is a year old and I've only had her a little over a week and so far no battles with this. (I have plenty of other battles with her though). Good luck.

LOL...yes a nice book, sheet and beer in the back yard in the nice weather does sound good LOL
I have to be on the ball with the camera for now on!! I missed the jeweled poop and the beer stealing! HHMMM I wonder if I can send him into the liquor store
When I told my husband about the beer he was proud LOL..."that's my boy"

OMG that is so funny. Taking a case of beer out the doggie door, LOL. We have been lucky, Kodiak only takes his stuff animals and occasionally our shoes out the door.

Not gonna lie the beer sounds hilarious. My pup tried opening a beer left on the floor from a party we had the night before a couple of weeks ago Luckily I took it away just in time

It could only be cuter with a sledding harness.......
