Jumping dog and pregnancy
I have a 5 month old husky. He's half husky, half lab. I'm 5 months pregnant. At first he was good, but now he's not. He jumps, bites, runs away, barks at you. I know his intentions aren't to hurt anyone. He's just a puppy after all and he wants to play. But for 5 months I have gone to hell and back trying to teach him to behave. He knows how to sit, but wont do it for long. I have asked trainers, done hours of research online.. I just dont know what to do. We cant even have him in the house anymore because he's too hyper, and he tears things up.
Trainers say that's a huskys nature. And it is. But why cant i train him? I don't have enough money to take him somewhere. I reward him when he does good, I don't smack him. I tell him no firmly, etc. but with my being pregnant, I cant have him jumping on me with such force against my belly. I cant even feed him anymore because he simply doesnt stop. And when the baby comes, i cant trust him to be around the baby. I dont know what to do anymore.
Any tips on what to do? Should I just get rid of him? He really is a sweet dog and he loves to play and he's loveable but I just cant handle this anymore seeing as my husband works all day and I take care of him.
