Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

So I have an eleven month old German Shepard Dog (Justice), I am taking care of him for my brother who is in the Marines. First off, Justice is very well trained for his age, he's very protective against any people he doesn't know, but he's been trained not to engage other dogs in the neighborhood, however ANYTHING that comes on to our property is fair game as far as he's concerned.
As for my Husky (haven't picked a name yet), he's gonna be coming home at eight weeks of age. So I'm hoping someone here has had experience with both Huskies and GSD together, how do you think I should start socializing them? I know Justice will not like him at first; I've had other dogs visit the house before and he gets really protective. Does anybody have any advise?

Have them meet each other on NEUTRAL territory. The GSD is obviously very territorial of the home, so DON'T have them meet in the house. Take them to a park, or somewhere the GSD does not associate as his. Have them do a pack walk to get used to each other. Take it SLOW. Do not rush either dog into a situation were one will retaliate against the other.

This is going to be hard because you're husky is an 8 week old puppy, who really can't go very many places due to not having shots yet or go for long walks. It needs to be somewhere that isn't used very often by other dogs so that there is less chance of your puppy picking something up during the meet.

Ohh yes. I totally passed over that...

Honestly, the Shepard sounds like he is under socialized. I would contact a behavior based trainer before you get the Husky.

When you are getting the pup??
