Off-leash romps in the woods

LoveMySiberian:
I am SO proud to say that I have a Siberian Husky that is good off leash! I've been practicing with Taz  (considering when we're at the dog park, he doesn't let me out of his sight, so I thought I'd give this a try) off leash at a local preserve, and he is doing so great! He doesn't go that far ahead of me, and if he does, he'll stop and wait for me, or I'll just tell him to wait (he knows that command thank goodness!). He gets a little off track sometimes if he sees a bird or a squirrel, but I just call him and he comes back on to the trail. I have been blessed with a Siberian whose an exception to the rule, I got really lucky! I'm not sure if I'll ever get this lucky with a Sibe again LOL. I totally trust him, but of course I'm still cautious, I would never let him off leash out of an area that's not enclosed.

Later on, I'm going to take him to a bigger and better preserve and see how he does. I can't wait! I'm really glad he's like this, because I don't have a fenced in yard (phooey) and I don't have a car, so I can only get to the dog park so much. So, I'm glad this is another option to get him out and running!

Here are some pics, actually most of them he's waiting for mommy's slow butt to catch up with him  :D

Way to go, I'm proud of him.  I wish I could get Rocco to be that good, how did you do it?

LoveMySiberian:
I actually really have no tips, because I only adopted him a month and a half ago. His previous owners were very neglectful of him and since I got him, he does not want to leave my side, and I guess it's attachment issues maybe, since he never really had a human. When we go to the dog park, I always attempt to hide from him so he'll leave me alone and go have fun LOL. So, I did get very lucky!

greek4:
Rocco definately has absolutely no attachment issues.  He loves everyone and always hangs out with the newest person to come into his vision.  It makes me feel so special sometimes.

Tulsas' Dad:
You are indeed fortunate! I had a Husky/Shepard mix, and when he got loose he was GONE! Huskies love to run, and run, and run...Funny thing is, our house cat, Oliver, would go with him! They'd come home covered in Cow Dung, Mud, filled with Burrs, Ollie with a prize catch, bird, rat, or field mouse, usually alive. Which he would release once inside the house!
Glad I was younger then.
