    Samoyeds are really great dogs, as long you completely understand their needs and demands. I struggled with figuring out what my first Samoyed needed. I've owned dogs of other breeds, my entire life, but for 2 years, Chewy ate my entire house. Chewy was my first Samoyed. Once you figure out what they need and how to train them, they're fantastic dogs.

They were watching Ralf drag me up the hill to where they were all siting. One lady looked at me and I said to her, "would you like to have a tractor ?" At that moment Ralf bolted off in the opposite direction to introduce him self to a poodle, pulling me like a sled. Every thing you have mentioned in this video is absolutely true.

We live in tornado country and if there were warnings our son at 5 would go into the hall and our Samoyeds would surround him. They are loyal. They are very loving. You do need to be give the attention. They are very family oriented. They need to be part of a pack. They do want to heard anything. Or at least mind did.

    I haven't checked in in a while been busy with my puppy, can't believe he is almost 8 months old. When we got him the breeder selected the Sammy to the family instead of the other way around so everyone got the right fit. We also have a Facebook group and get to see all the puppies grow up even if some live in Dif states. Yeti is so handsome

    • @YetisPlace
      @YetisPlace  Před 3 lety +1

      The best breeders always select the best Sammie to fit the families. That’s why they ask a lot of questions. They get to know the puppies’ personalities and are able to find the best fit. They know which dog is the dominant dog, which dogs are more quiet. That’s the way it should be. So glad you got a great match!
      That’s wonderful that you’re able to stay in touch with all the puppies. I bet it’ll be great for them, if you’re able to meet up with the littermates.

      When they’re young, like a few months of age, it’s fine to walk them less. One walk per day would be ok. As they get older, they will demand more. Yeti likes going on 3-5 daily walks, of at least a half hour at a time. Once we get home, within minutes, he begins begging for more. Sams love walks.

    What would you recommend doing if a samoyed puppy keeps trying to bite you? I have a 10 week old Samoyed , and sometimes when we’re playing she out of nowhere comes after my legs. She bites an area once, I yelp, and she just moves on to a different area of the leg and bites again. I tried redirecting her to a toy as well, but she is way too focused on LITERALLY EATING MY LEG to notice the toy.

      That is so painful to go through Yummy Yummy. I hear your pain, as my dogs have always done that too. I would continue doing what you’re doing, but add turning/walking away from your puppy, ignoring her. Stop playing. It does take time for them to learn this. Their normal play activity, involves puppy biting. She’ll eventually learn the only way you’ll play with her, is if she isn’t biting. I wouldn’t hold the toy, but give it to her and ignore her.

    First of all, I want to say I'm so truly sorry about your cancer scare. I hope you recover well, I didn't even notice the mark on your face until you mentioned it. Second of all, I am a HUGE animal lover. I am an aspiring veterinarian or trainer, and I would love a Samoyed someday. The problem is, I already own a small cockatoo that's obsessed with attacking my dog. She seems better around big dogs, but I'm scared I'll have to always separate my future sammy and bird. It appears sammy's have a prey drive, do you think one would find a large bird scary or a chew toy? 🥺😬🤞🤔 I badly want this type of dog someday, but I am not an active person, vets often work long hours, and I've only ever lived with hypoallergenic small dogs. Hoping there's still a chance I could figure it out and there will be a day I can own one. 🥺✨🤞

    • @YetisPlace
      @YetisPlace  Před 3 lety +3

      Thank you for the kind thoughts. The doctor said he got it all and no further treatment will be needed. I’m really thankful of that. Turned out much better than I had thought. I applied a lot of tinted cover up, followed by makeup over it, to minimize. It should fully heal, but it can take up to a year.
      A Sammy puppy, is small, who quickly grows. When you get a Sammy pup, if you train him/her to treat your cockatoo as a pet, they’ll be respectful pretty quickly. Cockatoos are gorgeous!
      Sammies do need a lot of daily walks, plenty of daily playtime. They’re quite active until just before they pass away. They need to work. You could put roller skates on, or grab a skateboard. That way, your Sam could pull you on a walk. Working dogs really do live up to their name. If they don’t work, they will literally eat your entire house. Work can many times be identified as intense playtime.
      Sammies are hypoallergenic, no oil in their coats. However, if you have allergies to anything outside, or dust/mold from inside, anything and everything gets trapped in their thick, double coats. After a walk, Yeti gets everything trapped. Prickers, seeds, weeds, etc.
      Sammies need people around them. They do ok if they’re left alone for a few hours a day, once they’re full grown (age 2). They sleep, reviving their crazy energy for later in the day. To get them to be good, they need a long walk before you leave for the day, or a lot of games of fetch. Crate training, is key.

We are trying to puppy proof. In the meantime this saturday we are going to meet a samoyed pup we may potentially get. We have a big yard and A big basement too. Do you have any tips personally?

    • @YetisPlace
      @YetisPlace  Před 3 lety +1

      Congratulations on your upcoming Samoyed puppy! It’s a big moment for you and your family. Don’t allow full access to your house, until around 2 years old. Gate off most of your house and only allow them in one small area for the first few months. The reason, is because they’re small and get overwhelmed easily. They’re easier to train if you only allow access to small areas. Potty training will be easier, so will no bite, come, down, stay, sit, leave it, etc. Keep your puppy away from all plants. Plants can cause adverse reactions that we may not have. If anything, plants provide plenty of mental stimulation with the feeling of the cool dirt, on their fuzzy paws and snouts. They dig them up very quickly. Therefore, gate off all plants.
      Big yards are awesome! Hopefully it’s fenced in. If not, keep your pup on his/her leash. Only release, if they’re in a fenced in yard. They love hunting small animals, using their hunting/herding instincts and will take off. That’s true of a Sammy, regardless of their age.
      Get a crate for overnight and when you’re not home with your Sammy. Get them used to it, though when you’re home with them. They’ll feel better about going into it, when they need to. Provide plenty of daily walks and a lot of fun, mentally stimulating playtime (fetch, bring here, will kill 2 birds with one stone). That will eliminate boredom, which in turn, will prevent digging and home destruction. But, still, please use a crate. I cannot tell you the thousands of dollars I would’ve saved, had I known that with my first Samoyed, Chewy. He literally ate my entire house. All because he was bored.

    • @YetisPlace
      @YetisPlace  Před 3 lety +1

      Potty training.... something I just learned.... bring them outside every half hour, regardless of whether they have to go or not. Bring treats and praise. Continue that, every half hour while up for the day. When you’re home, watch them like a hawk. If you’re not in the same room, gate them in a smaller room, or in a big, puppy playpen. Those little, razor sharp puppy teeth, won’t be able to eat much of what they’re not supposed to, if you do that. If they make a mess, it’s easier to clean.
      The every half hour, then outside, will only last for around 2-3 months.

      Unfortunately none of the 3. Huskies bark and sass even more than a Samoyed, who still talks way too much. Dobermans are big dogs, too big to be in an apartment, if you have a size limitation. I’m unsure of their barking, but I know they have to go through training.
      Huskies and Sammies shed a LOT. Their fur gets clogged everywhere, including in your heating and cooling vents.

    I bought a puppie for my ex’s birthday in 73. We wanted the male runt of the litter but he was promised. So we took the female runt. She lived to 16 and our daughters grew up with her. We didn’t have a digging issue but she did chew up a pair of steel toed work shoes. Chinook was smart and a ball of energy and stronger than we realized. Built a 2’x4’ dog house and put carpet squares on the floor. She pulled them all out we had to chain her as if we didn’t, a fenced in yard, she’d run and we lived inner city. She chewed through a couple nylon reinforced plastic chains, kept breaking most metal chains until we relented and got a heavier chain 20’ long. She didn’t break it but dragged the dog house all over the yard. She was smart and learned several tricks. Which she would do as soon as she saw we held a Milkbone. Without any command she would do every trick! Then look at us as if to say I did them all now give me my treat! She’d rollover one way, if we said No back she’d roll the other way. She’d shake paws, sit, sit up, hop on hind legs, dance, speak on command, lie down and get her tennis ball but not let it go but would roll the ball back if it was rolled to her. All for a dog biscuit! She’d sleep under the oldest girl’s bed until she’d fall out of bed onto Chinook. After the second or third time during the night Chinook would move to our room for safety from falling kids. We were on a picnic and a friend offered to take my ex and daughter on a boat ride and Chinook wanted to go with and let us know in no uncertain terms! We thought she’d jump up on the bow when called? Nope, she launched her self into the canal and swam up to the boat with that “here I am , let me in?” She didn’t get the ride but I got the wet dog on shore. She she’d loys of fur, continuously, and in clumps. But I’d take another Samoyed in a minute, though I don’t think my wife would like all the hair and I’m not able to take a Sami for the walks it needed. She loved the girls and was an endless source of entertainment!

      @@YetisPlace Hi, I love watching your videos and those of an owner of three Newfies. Another anecdote for you. We were talking with someone on our front porch and Chinook was getting most of the attention. Our daughter, oldest but not school age yet, ran inside and ran out with a full box of medium size “Milkbone” biscuits and she tripped and fell dropping the box. Dog biscuits fanned out across the porch and Chinook was in doggie heaven! Look at all those treats! She was grabbing in her mouth, one after another but not eating any as there were too many in her mouth. While our daughter picked up the dry ones I got the privilege of trying to get the gummed ones away from Chinook. Every dog owner should have to experience that fun chore! Needless to say Chinook had lots of biscuits that day as the ones she grabbed were too wet to put back in the box.
      One other episode had to do with giving a dog a pill from the vet. We tried all the tricks of hiding it in small pieces of food. Didn’t work. She’d eat the food and spit out the pill now wet as the dog biscuits. That meant opening her mouth, put the pill in the back of her mouth hold her muzzle shut and stroke her throat until she swallowed. Even then she’d swallow, I’d let go and she’d spit out the pill. Then before I could pick it up she’d grab it and swallow it. Then one day , we kept her pills on top of the fridge, as I was getting her pill when I accidentally dropped it. She pounced on it and ate it! Light went on in my brain. She had associated the fridge with food or treats. So from then on we kept her pills on the fridge, take one and just toss it to her. No more hiding it in food or puppies up fingers. As you’ve said, they are very intelligent dogs!

      Congratulations on your upcoming Sammy pup! It’s like waiting for Christmas Day! I have a small yard. You’ll be fine. Just bring on a lot of long walks around your neighborhood daily. At first, because they’re little, not too long. Once they get bigger, more and longer daily walks. 3 to 4 hours a day, would be fine, just crate train. That’ll keep your puppy safe and away from eating electric cords, furniture, stuff they’re not supposed to eat. It’ll also help with potty training too. Best wishes to you and your soon-to-be, adorable little Samoyed puppy!

    • @YetisPlace
      @YetisPlace  Před 3 lety +5

      Sammies and Huskies are beautiful, hard working dogs, who need excess energy release. If it would be your first breed of dog, they can be challenging. They need a lot of daily exercise, or they’ll eat your house. Once they get over the challenge hump, at 2 years old, they enter their demanding phase. They demand even more walks, more treats, filming even more CZcams episodes. They’re very schedule oriented dogs, extremely stubborn, but one of the sweetest breeds I know.

      You’re welcome. You want to introduce the moment you bring your puppy home. Hold your puppy and tell your little girl to be gentle. Let your Sammie sniff her hand. Once your Sammie is ok with her, have her scratch your Sammie underneath his/her chin. Then, she can be gentle and can rub his/her ears. You’ll want to supervise them playing while your puppy is little, due to needing to go outside frequently (every half hour, bring your Sam outside) and due to puppy nips for playtime. Those razor sharp teeth can be painful. They puppy bite, because that’s how they play. Work with your puppy to learn not to bite. Here’s a video on that. m.czcams.com/video/BZa1pR4tH30/video.html. It’ll take time, but eventually they’ll be best buds and your puppy won’t nip at heels and fingers/hands.

      Samoyed growth estimates are estimates. Some grow faster, others grow more slowly. Some are bigger, some are smaller. The average weight for a male Sam at 7 months, is 35-45 lbs. I would ask your vet about his weight, since he’s still growing. There are so many variables. Follow your food dosage, based on age. The food dosage is found on the backside of the food packaging. It’s based on age and size. A Sam is a medium-large dog.

      I’ve only owned boys. I like boys Sammies, as they have beautiful manes and are a bit bigger. I’ve been around females, who are smaller, with adorable, little faces. My first Samoyed, Chewy’s Mom, stayed overnight with me one weekend. She was very sweet, well behaved, gentle and very loving. She remembered Chewy’s scent and acted like such a loving Mom. Chewy was like, who are you? I think I know you, but I’m not sure. Why do you look just like me?
      I met Yeti’s Mom and his aunt, spending only a few hours around them.
      I can tell you, both males and females, are extremely active, loving dogs, who are very intelligent, which makes them difficult to train. They’re good dogs for people who’ve owned at least one breed in the past. Challenging for first time dog owners. You need to change your training game on a dime, making it a fun game. Involve challenges and games while training, to get both sexes to listen. Even after doing that, they still might not listen, because they’d rather be chasing reindeer, skunks, squirrels, mice, groundhogs, gophers, etc., than listening to sit, stay, come, down. That’s true of either Samoyed sex.

      Sammies are indeed true working dogs. They originated in Siberia as reindeer herders and sledge pullers, pulling literally over one ton of equipment, tools, gear, etc. Sammies never went on a hunt with their humans. They do love hunting small animals, like rabbits, squirrels, gophers, skunks…..skunks are BAD! Sammies are wonderful herders of reindeer, deer, cattle, humans. Yup, they love herding their people.
      Sammies are as strong as Malamutes, being able to haul extremely heavy equipment.
      A Sammy has the same classification as a Malamute and a Siberian Husky, a working dog. They love work and get extremely bored if you just want to stimulate their brains, or bring them just on walks. They need to pull, fetch, herd and walk miles each day.
      Sammies are great at sledding, albeit slower than a Husky and without the distance of a Husky. My first Sam and Yeti and multiple other family Sams go crazy in excitement when we get the dog sled out.

I had used a game of fetch to help me with training. Just don’t let them go off leash, unless you’re in a fenced in area. They’ll see an animal and ZOOM! Many times coming back with that animal hanging out of their mouth. Skunks are really bad, like REALLY bad! My first Sam, killed a baby skunk and proudly pranced around with the skunk’s head hanging out one side of his mouth, and his tail out the other. My Sam was smiling, throwing him into the air like a squeaky toy and chasing after it when it’d fall to the ground. He was show dog prancing toward me, the cloud of stench circling him like Pig Pen. It was bad. From that moment forward, no more off leash excursions.

    Samoyed pros and cons.
    Cons: they shed alot.
    They need alot of walks love to run too so come here command is a must.
    Prey drive: they will ignore you and chase things! some more than others.
    Intilligence: they are intiligent they are like huskies in smaller amounts im clever but on my terms.
    Grooming: hahahaahaha yeah thats a thing get used to it.
    Pros:
    They are silly and sleep in all kinda shitty posetions.
    They do well with eavryone! Humans dogs uhh whanna play yeah thats a samoyed for you.
    Fur is nice to touch and you can even make things out of it like socks scarfs and a shirt if you got enough. Also inner coat is fur but outer is more like hair texture keep that in mind.
    They smile alot! and are very playfull!
    Cons Versions 2.
    They do not like to be alone! so a few hours or work from home is best option.
    Expensive is kinda relative but you do need to do alot of things in the first year.
    They need a bit more training than most cause of their stubborn nature. If you do not train it ohh hell is loose. They get very stubborn and can rase hell inside if you do not train them within 1-2years. Train them!
    first 4-6months they pee alot cause of the bladder is not fully grown. Make sure you make them pee pee outside eavry hr or play and such. Else mom i peed and im like god fucking dammit bastard! We are training Asmodai To actually be vocal when he needs hes pee pee poo poo time.
    Pros Version 2.
    If you done all the cons they are absolutly adoreble and fun to have around. If you take your time with them and treat them well you have a good companion for life.
    Dont play to rough they get over exicted. But if you play with them nicely uhhhh its funny.
