204. E-mail research. The Husky in the Aluminium Crate

Met the family and thanked the girl who sent me the Husky picture earlier. The Husky was in excellent condition when I saw him yesterday at the surgery. She replied to my e-mail queries as follows:

I thank you for emailing the pictures of the cage. This will be very
useful for my book to be written for first-time puppy owners. Toilet-training
book for first-time puppy owners.
You got a nice composition of the puppy as both eyes are visible in the picture. If possible, please let me know his toilet-training routine for my
research.
>1. His date of birth.
26th of June 2005
2. What time he is fed?
9 am and 4 pm
3. How many times?
Twice.
4. Do you take his feed bowl away after 10 minutes or leave it there?
I would take the food bowl away after 10 minutes.
5. Per day, how many times he goes to pee? This may be difficult to answer.
Frequently. Rough estimation would be around 8 times or more.
6.1 Per day, how many times he passes stools?
No less than 4 times per day.
6.2 When he passes stools?
He passes stools usually after meals.
6.3 Where he passes stools?
On the Grass.
7. I believe he goes to the grass to pass urine and stools. Please confirm.
Yes
8.1 Is he learning toilet training from an adult dog?
Yes, I guess he is learning toilet training from the adult dog as he went onto the grass to pass his stools without us teaching him during the first two days when he first arrived.
8.2 Does he use the same location for his toilet as the adult dog?
Yes.
9. Does he sleep inside the aluminium crate at night?
No. He does not like being cooped up in the cage so he would bark and whine incessantly thus we tie him in the backyard at night where he sleeps.
10. Does he bark a lot if left alone?
Yes. He yearns for attention and would whine especially if we were to pat the adult dog instead of him. But at times he's fine being left alone running around with the adult dog as well as at night when he's sleeping.
11. Is he toilet-trained in the sense that he does his business in one or two spots in the garden now?
Yes. Actually we did not even toilet train him ourselves, he just figured it out himself which is quite surprising.
12. How long it takes for him to be successfully toilet-trained?
He got the gist of it after around three days.
13. Did you give commands like "pee here" or scolding on week 1?
No.
14. What were the training done during the first week after purchase? Or he is left alone to follow the bigger dog?
We taught him to follow basic commands like 'sit', 'come', 'go' and 'lie down' which he did very well. No, he does not follow the adult dog when training is concerned.
All these questions are important for my case study. Will appreciate your time in replying.
