I have a few things I'll be changing as far as when I am up, how he is getting his food, the amount of mental stimulation he gets, along with taking main responsibility for solving this, simply because I am more patient. I know huskies are a handful, to say the least, but he is an absolute doll and I do want to work with him on this. I feel much more equipped to not only solve this problem but also to talk to my partner in a constructive way to hopefully discourage the discipline.Īll the advice I received here has been amazing and really helpful in figuring out how to go forward. Thank you all so much, I can't reply to everyone, I didn't expect so many responses. I've tried desperately to explain why ignoring him will work and what to expect, the reason why he is doing that, but he just won't listen to me and keeps disciplining our dog for doing dog things every morning. He thinks that we have to discipline him in this situation for him to learn that it isn't what we want instead of going with a less traumatic route. I have the patience for this, I will just lay down and ignore it until the dog stops but my partner just does not have that same patience and idk what to do. I'm at the point where I'm tempted to push to rehome this poor pup. They are LOUD and I tried explaining that as well even before we got him here. His previous home had him crated for like 8+ hours straight a day, and would go check on him and let him out when he yelled so yeah the pup thinks that's how you get people's attention. Cause he thinks that's how he gets attention. The dog will literally scream for an hour, my partner goes in and grabs his snout and tells him no repeatedly, then the dog will go right back to yelling. I keep telling him to ignore it and while, yeah, it's gonna be intense for a bit our dog will eventually realize that he gets nothing out of screaming in there. My partner thinks the solution is to discipline him when he screams in the morning and I just don't see how that is the actual solution, at all. Our 3 month old puppy SCREAMS in his crate for up to an hour, despite having exercise, mental stimulation, and letting him out of the crate for a potty break.
