I was half way hoping others would post so maybe there could be a discussion on training tips. Training a dog that hates food is an interesting experience. Especially if you are trying to avoid positive punishment if possible.
He was supposed to be a service dog, but much to stubborn for the specific duties he would have. Stubborn disobedience would be good for a seeing eye dog out a sled dog, but not so good for other things.
Ohh gotcha, well you should update the description then! That’s where I went to check first. And maybe make a text post stating as much where others could contribute. Otherwise this is just a very confusing community of a cutie pooch 😅
He is 100% German German Shepard, but he throws larger tantrums than any husky video I've seen...... One day I'll get a video of him throwing a tantrum when he is given the command to eat.... Never though I would have to train that command.
