It IS Possible to Train a Husky

I hate seeing those same old posts saying 'You can't train a Husky' or 'You need an E-collar to get a Husky to listen'.

These posts, these individuals are one of the reasons why so many of these dogs end up in shelters, why so many end up dead.

The fault is not in the breed but at the other end of the lead.

One Husky trained with a collar, without even a harsh word.

This is what a 'Leave It' command should be like, no matter the breed...

Reminder: The Importance of Training.

We live in a harsh environment and it can be a deadly one. Today we were alerted by Tenshi that something wasn't right, we headed outside to find him growling at something under the house. A closer inspection brought us to the realisation that Koji was engaged and attempting to hold something in position, we soon realised that 'something' was one of the most dangerous land snakes in the world. As he moved towards it and within striking distance, a hurried, 'leave it' was issued, he immediately halted and stepped back. A 'To Me' (his recall command) was issued and he immediately broke eye contact with the snake, backed away and returned. A bite means death out here - training and commands are essential, they are life savers. This is the second time in 10 months these dogs lives have been saved with this command from snakes. Train your dogs, recall and leave it are lifesavers in many situations, because our dogs were trained and these...

What Happened to Outback??

Hi all, sorry for the delay in new material. We had a few things happen. In March 2019, Outback moved across country. With 4 dogs (more on that in a later post) - Akuma, Tenshi, Koji and Mia. In April, our founder and visionary, Troy Wilson, was diagnosed with extremely aggressive cancer at 55. He did not make it to May 😢 As the end loomed, I questioned what to do with Outback - keep it going or close it down? With the unequivocal and unanimous support of the amazing team Troy put together, I decided to keep going. And I have to say, these folks have been incredible. They kept the training advice going, supported myself and the members while grieving themselves. In the past few months, they have taken Outback from strength to strength, growing Troy's dream into something he would be very proud of. And a little astonished by - he never really thought he was anything special. But he truly was - in so many ways. The Outback community also stepped up - supporting each other...

The Dogs of Outback Dog Training - Tenshi

Tenshi, the ‘middle child’ of the Outback family, is a kelpie/dingo cross from a working background; his family are Victorian and are in cattle. Like Akuma, he adores swimming. However, he prefers salt water to fresh, and is very much 'Dad’s boy’. His dingo nature means he can be a challenge to train, but once he takes to something, it is locked in forever (he can be a little OCD). We call him 'The General' because he likes to direct how the other two play their war games, and isn't afraid to step in and firmly direct the action when he deems it necessary. Tenshi has an incredibly high prey drive, but also has exceptional impulse control (check out the Impulse Walking Unleashed video to see him in action). His favourite game is 'Fetch’, particularly with his Kong and he doesn’t mind a game with the flirt pole; in fact, we usually tire before he does.
