• The daily diet of the husky should consist of natural food and dry (factory) feed. At the same time, dry food is best to buy a super premium class: it consists of lamb, turkey and fish meat. After feeding, the dog must be given fresh water, access to which must be constant. In the case when the owner prefers to feed the pet with natural products, then the balance of each portion should be controlled.

• Before conducting each new class with a pet, its owner must tune in to the absence of aggression, perseverance and consistency. In no case can not be torn on the animal and beat him. If the owner has a bad mood, the Husky will immediately feel it and think that something bad has happened.
• In addition to periodic training on the street, you should conduct educational activities with the dog and in the house. The animal should not spoil things and furniture in the room. To distract the pet from "pampering", he needs to buy special toys, it will save shoes and furniture from sharp teeth.
• It is also important to teach the Husky to the cage, it will be useful in the future for long trips. The owner needs to purchase a structure of sufficient size in advance, in which the adult individual would feel comfortable and could rotate freely. You can not close a pet in a cage forcibly - he must feel for himself that this is “his territory” and not a place for punishment. To speed up the process of accustoming to the cage will help feeding the pet in it with treats.
