Question
hi again marcus im writin 2 u again re my husky caesar basically we jus moved and wen i let him go in the garden he eats snails slugs n worms he sniffs round n digs lookin for worms n surely he does find it n eats it, is that normal n wat would be the impact 2 his belly? Also another thing he's 3 n half months n wen he goes to pee he dont yank his leg up like normal dogs, is that normal 4 a husky? Thanks again

Answer
It's all normal.  I wouldn't encourage the eating of snails and such, but I wouldn't fret over it either.  Just try to eliminate what you can, and dogs will be dogs.  As far as impact his digestive system . . . well . . . he might end up with some minor issues, but just keep an eye on him and only worry if you notice loose and runny stools or vomiting.  Otherwise, it's just part of being a dog.  :)

As for the leg while urinating . . . hiking a leg can come pretty late to some dogs, and Sibes in particular, so no worries.
