2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited.

Hi everyone
i have just got a 4 months old puppy a week ago
she has not been trained by her previous owner.
shes very teething i guess shes on the stage of changing her teeth or something.
the problem is that when i'm not around her or on her sight, she starts wander off and bite literally everything she sees. i have tried those anti bite bitter spray but she seems to very enjoy that taste.. Shocked Shocked

i've crate trained her and she's very comfortable with her crate. she never cry or scram as she's only 4 months old.
i take her out for walk or run every 3 or 4 hours i make sure that she gets enough outdoor exercises.
im living in a one bedroom almost 65sqt apartment.
i tried let her stay away from my room since my mom is allergy to dogs[ shes gonna be with me in mid July]
so when i tried to do my stuff like study/do hw/skype my parents,etc in my room which will take me at least 2 hrs to get done, i dont know if i should let the puppy stay in living room alone.
she bites everything and doesnt listen to me for that at all.
so i started taking her to her crate while i have to do my things in my room.
she never crys and seems okay and comfortable with that.
but i really dont think its a long term thing, afterall husky if full of energy and stuff.

do you guys have any suggestions /
or is it ok to keep her in crate like that?

If you're home, keep her on a leash with you with plenty of chew toys and treats near you. If she cant be with you in your room, I'd definitely find a way to do the homework in the living room.

While you're out and about, I would crate her with a bunch of chew toys (some with treats in them). My opinion is that teething is the best time to teach your dog what is acceptable to chew on and by limiting it to chew toys/antlers/bones, you help her develop a taste for them instead of your rocking chair or insert other valuable item here.
