We adopted Ruby at ten months old, so we have not had her very long. We adopted her from my dad, after Ruby had a fall out with his 15 month old Alaskan Malamute, Jess. My dad adopted Ruby at seven months.
The poor baby has been pushed from pillar to post, coming from a family who had no time for her, or cared enough to make the time. She's a beautiful little lady, with a big heart and stunning baby blue eyes. She weighs in at around 24kg, stands around 60cm, and is a beautiful mixture of tan and grey.
My dad had already done a lot of work with Ruby, (he got Jess from a similar family when she was 8 months old, he's used to it) so she was mostly house trained and knew a little lead etiquette. She has also calmed down when it comes to food and stopped trying to steal it from your hands.
She is a complete live wire, but with alternating shifts at work for us, she is never alone, never neglected.
In this blog I will be charting and discussing our trials and tribulations with Ruby's training, and here to answer any questions about Siberian Husky's, or other big breeds, as chances are, I have had at least a little experience with them! As I said, my father has a Malamute, my mum has a Rottweiler, and has previously had German Shepard's, Bull Terriers, a Pit Bull Cross, Dobermans, and a Collie.
I hope you enjoy, and I hope I can offer a little bit of reassurance for those of you out there who are going through the hell that can be dog training!
Meet Ruby!
