My high-energy husky mix puppy is overwhelming. What can I do?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | 6 months and 21 days old | 60 lbs

Our puppy is adorable and we love her so much but she is a little bit of a pain. She has husky in her mix so she is a ball of energy. Because of this we are debating giving her away. But we love her so much and feel that she is part of the family. What should I do? My two kids love panda too and feel that she is part of the family.

Puppies are a lot of work, especially when the puppy is high energy. You need to make sure that she is getting plenty of exercise as that will help decrease her energy. Enrolling her in puppy training classes and working with a trainer may help, too. Good luck!
