Question
Hi my names Elyas i have a 12-13 week old husky. he is my first pet, and ive been told that its very tricky training huskies. What are some good ways training husky pups? hes very smart for he already knows how to sit and lay down. and how can i be the alpha or know if i already am??? what do you sagest?

Answer
The bets way to train a Husky is consistancy. One you have decided that something isn't wanted (i.e. jumping up) do not award the pup for jumping up like patting them. Ignore what you do not want. Playing is important to a healthy husky. The eaisest way to put yourself as alpha is taking him for a walk, if you can make a husky listen during a walk they will listen to you anywhere. Always walk a Husky on leash. Never trust them loose, Loose is the last time you will see your dog. Most importantly never get mad, never loose your cool. Dogs do not understand Anger being calm keeps you in control.
