I have an alaskan sled dog(a generic term for a mutt with some husky somewhere in my dog’s case). I’d really like to be able to walk her off-leash, but I’m not sure how to train her to do that. She’s gotten good about coming when I call her to me, but what’s the next step? Any other training tips? Thanks!

Dec 14, 2011 | 0 | Famous DogsI have a 5 month old Sibeiran Husky puppy. I exercise him a lot and give him lots of love, but I need to sharpen up his training. He already knows the basics, come, sit, lay down, he’s starting to get stay. He also is really good outside and comes, unlike some huskies, who are known to be stubbon and free spirited.
I want to train him at home, rather than go to an obedience class. I don’t live in town, and to drive all the way there for an expensive class, when I’m sure I can do it at home, doesn’t seem worth it enough.
I need him to be more well mannered. I’d like to know how to get him to stay by my side, not to jump on people (he’s getting better, but I have to ask him to get down). I just want him to be a little more polite. I know he’s an abnoxious puppy, they all are, but I want to start re-enforcing good manners now while he’s still young.
He also gets really excited and leaps in the air and pulls on the leash when he sees another dog. I take him to the Farmer’s Market to socialize him, but he wants to go see everyone! Any advice how to keep him calm and stay by my side?
Also, any advice on how to stop pulling on the leash? He doesn’t really do it, but my older Siberian Husky does and he’s starting to follow her example and I want both of them to not pull. I don’t agree with choke collars.
Any other training advice is welcome.
Thanks
BTW: I don’t watch TV, so no dog training shows
