Sounds like he is engaged in doing commands and going on walks? Those are two great areas to build on. Since he likes being around people, have you tried doing recall training? That could be a fun thing to play with a dog, and it is a very useful command as well.

Where do you currently go for your walks? What does he seem to enjoy doing during walks?

What games have you tried playing with him? Does he take food from your hand? When he is just hanging out with you, what does he choose to do? Does he like getting affection?

Different dogs are motivated by different things. Part of this is also based on past experience. I try to observe my dogs carefully and see what motivates them most, then I can use those things to engage them. Some dogs are motivated by food, others by toys, some by affection, new experiences, other dogs, and the list goes on.

Also, because of temperament and past experience, some dogs may also become anxious and fearful of certain things. For example, some dogs may fear loud noises, others may fear being alone (separation anxiety) or being abandoned.

Here is a bit more on dog anxiety.

We have had our husky for about 6 -7 weeks, he doesn’t leave my side when we are in the house always has to have eyes on me. Beautiful manners, no pulling on leashes, no jumping, no chewing, knows basic commands but still a very very picky boy about everything. Only update I have is I figured out he was not eating his dinner because he doesn’t like his wett food touching his dry food. Still walks around and crys, I try to play with him and hes not interested. I just dont know what to do to get him engaged in something.

How many days have you had him? Moving into a new home can be very stressful for a dog, and it may take a while for him to get used to the new environment, people, and everything else.

When we moved houses, I quickly set up a fixed schedule for my dogs and a consistent set of house rules. This helps to create some certainty in a time of change, and helps them understand what to expect from me, what I expect from them, and what to expect from the environment.

My Shiba Inu also needed more space after the move, so I made sure he had a quiet and safe place to rest, and I wait for him approach me when he is ready. I make sure to reward him very well when he chooses to interact, but I also give him quiet time to rest and relax. My dog only had to deal with a new environment, and that was already causing some stress. I imagine things would be a lot worse if he had to deal with both a new environment and totally new people, and before that life at a shelter.

I try to observe my dog quietly but carefully, so that I can better understand what things he enjoys, what he is trying to tell me, and what types of things cause him stress. It took some time, but now, I understand my Shiba quite well, and continue to learn more about him every day. 😀

Thanks for your comment. I have added a section to provide greater clarification.

Yeah, Sephy is like that. I think it is the guard dog in him.

What I do when they bark outside, is I first give them the Quiet command (which I have pre-trained). If they stop, I make sure to reward them well for following my command. If they do not, then I no-mark them and bring them inside if they continue.

Congratulations on your upcoming Husky puppy!

In terms of FB, I am there as Shiba Shake. I don’t get on there much though – mostly use it to view puppy and dog pictures! 😀
