Anyone who has had a Siberian Husky for a pet has often had to answer this question and anyone who has ever lived with one knows that it takes a special person to rear a Siberian Husky. This strong and sturdy working dog is a loyal companion without being sentimentally sappy, mature yet playful, sociable with people and other dogs and has an incredible amount of energy. If you are an outdoor person with a love for trekking and hiking, you will love being with the backpacking Siberian Husky. They will love lugging a light load and be ready for every physical challenge. Siberian Huskies are brave hearts who love being where the action is. Not for then them the fireside - what they want is a something to do. This breed is active, athletic, and intelligent and can rough it out in any kind of weather. Siberian Huskies are pack animals raised around people so they need to have company around them. Besides you will need to be there for your Siberian Husky because his natural instincts will lead him to dig up escape routes! Owners of Siberian Huskies will tell you the importance of being as agile, alert and intelligent as they are. However, despite their intimidating wolfish looks, Siberian Huskies are amazingly gentle with kids and aren’t much of guard dogs since they cozy up to strangers. They love toys of their own and can be quite a bit of the clown and entertain the family with their antics. However don’t let his playfulness fool you into believing that your Siberian Husky will do your every bid because he isn’t a people pleaser. He’s got a mind of his own and isn’t always up to fetching that stick you throw, though he will happily pull a sled and whatever else that keeps him busy. There are quite a few challenges of rearing the free- spirited Siberian Husky and that’s where this ebook steps in to direct you with what you need to know about this breed. Find out if you have it in you to be an owner of a Siberian Husky. Read on to find out the history of this dog, the accepted breed standard and its unique personality. If you have one already then follow the guidelines on how you can care for your Siberian Husky in the best possible way and keep him or her healthy. Take advantage of the advice on the right diet and grooming techniques. Don’t be put off by people who will tell you that it isn’t possible to train the Siberian Husky. Use the training tips to get around the stubborn streak in Siberian Huskies and get them to be more obedient. Find out what dangers you need to protect them from and what makes them content. It all depends on the choices you make for your pet and the patience you show. If you are lucky enough to be a Siberian Husky owner, this ebook will be an invaluable guide to a happy and healthy pet. After all, you do owe it to your Siberian Husky to cherish the companionship, reward the loyalty and be his or her guardian angel. ________________________________________________________________________ © 2004, 2005 Andrew Preston 4 The Siberian Husky Manual! An Insider’s Guide To A Happy, Healthy & Well Behaved Siberian Husky. Chapter 1: The Origin & History of the Siberian Husky! Where did it all begin for the Siberian Husky? As the name suggests, it all began in the freezing land of Siberia. A tribe known as the Chukchi lived along the cold Arctic coast of northeastern Siberia, where they hunted for seal and battled the severe weather. What they needed was a companion helper who was strong enough to haul their loads of harvested seals from the Anadyr River, resilient enough to take on the cold and friendly enough to live along with humans. That’s how they came to develop a breed that we know today as the Siberian Husky but that began as the Chukchi dog some 3000 years ago. A dog called Chukchi Picture this- a medium sized dog with adequate fur to keep him warm from the freezing winter winds and minimum needs when it came to food. During the day he would, thanks to his strength, haul the loads of seals harvested from the Anadyr River with the men of the Chukchi and in the evening he would settle around the women and play with the children. Herding reindeer was another task they performed without buckling down to the reindeer or the weather. The dogs were so much part of their lives that they were even used as virtual blankets! The dogs were actually made to sleep close to their owners and their children for their warmth. It is said that they would speak of how cold the night was in relation to the number of dogs they used at bedtime to keep them warm, so they had a “two dog night” or a “three dog night"! The gentleness of this breed sprung from living around the people at such close quarters and pulling the sled along with the rest of the other dogs. The aggressive strand came from being let loose in the summer to hunt in packs just as the wolves did. The Chukchi dog became so much part of the tribe that it even became a status symbol. Soon the wealth of a Chukchi man was measured by the number and quality of his dogs. The Chukchi dog even became part of many religious beliefs and folklore. Onwards to Alaska The importance of their dogs increased even more when the Chukchi tribe managed to outsmart the Czar’s soldiers who were sent in the nineteenth century to open the area to the fur trade. The Chukchi dog sleds were faster than the reindeer powered sleds of the soldiers so for a while the Chukchi people managed to survive till they were finally cornered and overpowered! They continued to live in the region but now that they were ‘discovered’ so were their dogs.

Berns 8 [email protected] 9 Keywords: Dog, odor, mixture, fMRI, RFC, MVPA, decoding, brain 10 Abstract 11 In working and practical contexts, dogs rely upon their ability to discriminate a target odor from 12 distracting odors and other sensory stimuli. Few studies have examined odor discrimination using 13 non-behavioral methods or have approached odor discrimination from the dog’s perspective. Using 14 awake fMRI in 18 dogs, we examined the neural mechanisms underlying odor discrimination 15 between two odors and a mixture of the odors. Neural activation was measured during the 16 presentation of a target odor (A) associated with a food reward, a distractor odor (B) associated with 17 nothing, and a mixture of the two odors (A+B). Changes in neural activation during the presentations 18 of the odor stimuli in individual dogs were measured over time within three regions known to be 19 involved with odor processing: the caudate nucleus, the amygdala, and the olfactory bulbs.

  • Health Management: Doggy World Aim at Making Pet Parenting an Enjoyable Process
    # Health Management: Doggy world aim at making pet parenting an enjoyable process. This can be achieved only when a regular update regarding the care and management of dogs for all the stages is provided to the parents beforehand. Vets at doggy world regularly update the owners regarding the care and management during different pet stages. 1. Care and health management of puppy Bringing home a new pup is very easy task but making him a part of a family is a very difficult and tedious job. It require a lot of responsibility and care to make him part of the family. Many things need to be taken care of like: • Feeding – Like a small child a pup needs to be fed at short intervals. An interval of 4-5 hours is good enough to begin with that is to be increased as the pup grows. The suggested feeding time as per the age is as below: Age (months) feeding (no. of times in a day) 1-3 5 3-6 4 6-12 3 Above 12 2 Suggested food to begin with-cerelac, curd, porridge, puppy dog food (starter diets), paneer etc. A pup’s feed should be very different from a child’s feed hence a vet opinion is to be taken for formulating the pups diet. A pup’s diet should be rich in protein and good fats apart from having sufficient energy hence adequate provision should be made to fulfill the need of these nutrients. Most of the pups cannot digest milk hence it can be avoided in case of problem.
