   The original posts recommended HURTIN dogs   
   to train them, malinda. What do you think of   
   shocking your Husky's to make them naturally   
   want to do anything you ask?

    I would just like to say that Sibes are one of the   
    most intelligent dogs to walk the face of the planet.   
    The harder you try to curb their habits, the worse   
    ones you find. Desensitising is the key, ask your vet   
    and he/she can advise you on the best way to do this.   
      
    Basically when you find him doing undesirable things   
    negatively reinforce the behaviour with perhaps lemon   
    juice put in his mouth. As a VERY VERY last resort   
    electric fences can be used which when the dog comes   
    into contact with it gives a very small shock. It is a   
    bit barbaric, but it is sometimes necessary to   
    prevent further damage to property and the dog.
