Raising a husky is like opening a blind box. You never know whether it will be an angel smile or a "demolition site" to greet you when you get home. After many novice poop shovels are excited to take back the "Erha", they will soon be taught a lesson by its infinite energy, astonishing destructive power and "letting go" characteristics. They have paid a lot of "IQ tax" when purchasing pet products. However, in the process of fighting wits and courage with the leader of the "Three Sled Stupid", we gradually figured out the ropes and discovered some artifacts that can truly "surrender" them and make pet raising life easier and better. Today, let's take stock of those good things that have transformed from "IQ tax" to "really fragrant scene", allowing husky parents to buy back unlimited!
1. Anti-demolition and home protection: Protect your sofa and door frame
The husky's ability to demolish homes is unique in the dog world. They are not malicious, but a combination of energy, curiosity and gum discomfort during the tooth replacement period. Therefore, simple reprimand is ineffective, but the key lies in diversion and protection.
1. Top bite resistant toy: KONG classic gourd
From IQ tax to true fragrance: Atfirst, I thought a rubber toy was so expensive? Until you discover that it saved your slippers, remote control and corner line. KONG toys are made of special rubber material, which is extremely tough and can withstand the strong biting force of husky. Its irregular shape and hollow interior design can be stuffed with snacks, peanut butter, yogurt, etc., which perfectly meets the husky's dual nature of "biting + foraging". It allows them to play attentively for a long time. It consumes energy and prevents boredom. The artifact of demolition. It is recommended to choose the black "Extreme" series, which is specially designed for powerful biting people.
2. Pet surveillance camera
From IQ tax to true fragrance:Think you're just looking at dogs? No, it is a "clairvoyance" to remotely appease, correct behavior, and discover safety hazards. When you are away from home, you can observe the husky's movements through the camera. Some high-end models support functions such as two-way voice, remote snack dropping, and transaction alarms. When you find that it is about to demolish the house, you can stop it in time by voice; when you see it resting quietly, you can praise it and carry out positive reinforcement. This greatly reduces anxiety when owners leave home and helps dogs establish better solitude habits.
3. Bittering spray/anti-bite spray
From IQ tax to true fragrance:After countless repairs to door frames and sofa legs, this bottle of "magic potion" has become a life-saving straw. Spray this safe, non-toxic bitter spray on furniture, wires and other items that you don't want your dog to chew. Huskies often avoid it after experiencing the bitter taste. This is a gentle way to correct behavior, coupled with providing the right toy (such as the KONG above) and teaching it what to bite and what not to bite. Pay attention to choosing pet-specific and component-safe products.
2. Diet and Health: Eat well, you will be in good health, and you will lose less hair?
The husky's stomach is known as the "glass stomach" and it is also the famous "hair-shedding monster". Choosing the right product in terms of diet and care can save you a lot of trouble.
1. High-quality staple grain: high-protein, gluten-free formula
From IQ taxes to true fragrance:From buying research formulas casually, we discovered that dog food is the foundation of health. As a sports dog, Huskies need a high-protein, medium-fat diet to maintain energy. Many huskies are allergic to or intolerant to grains, which can cause soft stools and itchy skin. Choosing a gluten-free and high-protein staple food with good reputation can significantly improve fecal quality, enhance skin resistance, and make hair shine. Although the unit price is high, it can be digested and absorbed well, and the feeding amount may be reduced, and the cost of seeing a doctor for gastrointestinal problems is reduced. In the long run, it is a really fragrant choice.
2. Fish oil/Omega-3 supplements
From IQ tax to true fragrance:To deal with "walking dandelions", internal adjustment is more important than external comb. Fish oil rich in Omega-3 (especially EPA and DHA) nourishes the skin from the inside, strengthens hair follicles, significantly reduces un-seasonal hair loss caused by dry skin, and makes hair soft, shiny and smooth. In addition, Omega-3 is also beneficial to joint health and the cardiovascular system. After persisting in feeding for a period of time, you will find that the floating hair and "dog hair masses" at home are significantly reduced. It is definitely a health care product that can be bought back endlessly.
3. probiotics
From IQ tax to true fragrance:Huskies occasionally have soft stools, vomits, and loss of appetite? Keep probiotics at home. It is used to regulate the balance of intestinal flora and quickly stabilize the intestinal environment when dogs change food, stress, and gastrointestinal problems. For huskies with a "glass stomach", probiotics are like a "stabilizing force" for the gastrointestinal tract, which can improve digestion and absorption and enhance immunity. Choose products that are specific to pets and have guaranteed strain activity.
3. Cleaning and Nursing: Farewell to the "hair" disaster and "body odor"
The husky with double coat falls off twice a year, each time for half a year. Only when daily care is done well can the home be refreshed.
1. Formenite hair removing comb/professional bottom hair comb
From IQ tax to true fragrance:Ordinary combs can only be used for loneliness, but this kind of professional combs can make a lot of them. Hair-removing combs from brands such as Formenet have cleverly designed heads that can efficiently remove the heavy underlying waste hair of husky without damaging the healthy surface protective hair. During the moulting season, comb it once a day, and the amount of wool collected is enough to weave a small sweater. The effect is immediate and the problem of floating hair at home is greatly reduced. Although it is expensive, it is definitely one of the most worthwhile investment tools for raising huskies.
2. Pet vacuum cleaner/sweeping robot
From IQ tax to true fragrance:After raising a husky, I realized how important an easy-to-use cleaning tool is. Powerful vacuum cleaners (especially models designed for pet hair) or sweeping robots that can work regularly are the "model workers" for keeping the home clean. They efficiently clean up carpet, sofa, corner dog hair and incoming dust, freeing you from the heavy cleaning work. Considering the amount of hair shed by the husky, the return on investment is extremely high.
3. Pet disinfectant and deodorant
From IQ tax to true fragrance:Although the husky's body odor is not heavy, its saliva and occasional accidental feces need to be thoroughly cleaned. Ordinary cleaners can only remove stains and cannot decompose odorous molecules (especially urine ammonia). Dogs may make mistakes again in the same place due to residual odors. Pet specific enzymatic cleaners can biodegrade the source of odors, completely remove odors, and prevent repeated labeling. They are a must-have for home cleaning.
4. Going out and exercising: Dealing with "letting go" and infinite energy
Without enough exercise, Huskies will release their energy at home. Equipment is essential for safe travel.
1. I-shaped/Y-shaped chest strap
From IQ tax to true fragrance:farewell collar! The husky has a strong burst force, and the use of a collar can easily damage the trachea. A well-designed chest strap evenly distributes tension to the chest and back, making it safer and easier to control. In particular, the "I-shaped" or "Y-shaped" front buckle chest strap (buckled on the chest) will naturally guide the dog to turn to the side when he bursts, thereby effectively slowing down or even correcting the burst behavior., is a good helper for training.
2. Extended version/retractable traction rope
From IQ tax to true fragrance:Give Huskies some space to explore in a safe and empty environment. A 5-or 10-meter-long training rope, or a reliable retractable traction rope, allows the huskies to sniff and run relatively freely within a controlled range, better meeting their exploration and exercise needs, while at the same time, it won't "let go". This consumes more energy than simply walking the dog with short ropes.
3. Wear resistant leaking ball/smell pad
From IQ tax to true fragrance:Can't you go out on rainy days? Indoors also consume energy! Put some dog food or snacks into a leak ball or spread it on a sniff mat. Husky needs to use brain and physical strength to get food. This "enrichment" activity can greatly satisfy their nature. 20 minutes of sniffing and exploration is equivalent to the mental consumption of an hour of walking. It is a magic weapon for dogs to calm down at home.
5. Other fragrant things
1. Large, hard-to-knock water bowl
Huskies drink a lot of water after exercise. A heavy and non-slip large-capacity water bowl can avoid being easily stepped on or pushed around the house, ensuring the hygiene of drinking water.
2. Pet ice mat/cool bed
Huskies are afraid of heat. In summer, an ice mat or cool bed can help them physically cool down, sleep comfortably, and reduce anxiety caused by heat and heat.
3. Sturdy pet fence/aviation case
It is not confined, but to provide a safe "safe haven". During puppies, training alone, or when no one is home, a suitable space management tool (such as a fence or air box) can effectively prevent separation anxiety and home demolition, and ensure the safety of dogs.
Conclusion:Raising a husky is a challenging and fun practice. The so-called "IQ tax" is often caused by the fact that we do not understand enough about the needs of this unique breed. "Really fragrant and good things" are the smart solutions we find while living with them. These infinitely repurchased items are not only tools, but also a bridge for harmonious coexistence between us and our children. I hope this list can help all husky parents avoid detours, devote more time and energy to the beautiful interaction with this "Erha" partner, and enjoy the unique and laughter company together. Remember, there is no perfect product, only the choice that best suits your lifestyle and your dog. I wish you and your husky a happy life!
