    siberian husky

    Help!  We have adopted a 1 year old female husky.  We have two other dogs in our household.  She whines and cries, doesn't like being outside (that is where the dogs stay until we get home from work).  Last night she was up for almost 3 hours (until 1am) whining, crying, panting, trying to get on our bed and trying to get out of our bedroom.
     
    I went to guide her yesterday to come upstairs with me and she bit me! She is intolerant of our other two dogs.  The other two romp and play outside.  She paces for hours on end outside and when she finally lays down, she is off on the side of the house where the other dogs are not.
     
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  We have had her since Mon, resuced her from the local shelter.  I told my husband she has a week to settle down and behave, if not I told him we are taking her back and choosing a different dog.  Thanks!

    Poor girl!  The way she keeps whining make me think that she may have some seperation issues.  She bit you?  How is she with your hubby?  She may prefer men over women.  As for not getting along with your other dogs, does she bite them or is she submissive?  She may need to be in a one dog house.  Sorry, that's all I could think of.  Hope she gets better.  Let us know how it goes!

    how long have you had her? it sounds like she may still be adjusting to a new house/surroundings.

    She may just be adjusting still.  She might be a little scared in her new surroundings. 
     
    I'm sure there are other people on here that can give you good advice.
     
    Good luck, hope she calms down a bit for you.
