1.The development of a Siberian Husky’s personality is determined by its owner.
Many books suggest that a dog that comes running when called is lively and easy to care for when choosing a Siberian Husky puppy. However, the reality is often not so simple. Because a dog’s nature can change continuously based on its owner’s personality, its family members, the environment, and its upbringing methods.
Suppose there is a timid puppy here, with few people coming and going, no TV or radio noise, and a small number of family members, who grows up in a quiet environment. He will gradually become accustomed to such a quiet and undisturbed environment. As he grows up, he also becomes more timid. As soon as he meets strangers, he shows an eagerness to flee or barks incessantly, making it difficult for him to get close to people other than his family members. However, a timid puppy with the same characteristics can be trained by its owner to change its timid personality. The owner deliberately takes it to crowded places or allows it to frequently come into contact with strangers, and takes it to a noisy environment. The puppy will gradually get used to it and gradually change its original timid personality. Similarly, a lively puppy with a quiet and reserved owner who grows up in a quiet environment may become bored and bark incessantly or become restless due to boredom, causing the owner to become annoyed and often scolding it. Over time, no matter how well-behaved the puppy was originally, its personality will only become worse and worse as it grows up, rather than better. Therefore, dogs are animals that show different personalities depending on the environment in which they grow up and the training methods used by their owners.
2. Factors That Affect a Dog’s Personality
1) Dog’s innate personality (character)
2) The family environment (the number of people coming and going, and whether you often see other animals passing by)
3) Family members (is it a large family, or are you single?)
4) Methods of Dog Training
5) The external environment (is it an apartment, or a standalone house: is it a quiet location, or a lively area?)
6) Other reasons (whether you also keep other animals)
As the puppy grows up, the above factors play a role in shaping their own personality. Except for one, all the others can be attributed to the owner. To cultivate a good personality in your dog, it is important to have a thorough understanding of him, knowing what he is good at and what he is not, and then taking advantage of his strengths and correcting his weaknesses. Raising a dog is actually the same as educating a child.
