How old does a Husky dog ​​need to be before it can be considered an adult dog? Many people are concerned about this issue, because it involves how old a Husky dog ​​needs to be to eat adult dog food. Generally speaking, a Husky can be considered an adult dog when it is one year old, and it should not be more than one and a half years old at the latest.

1. A Husky can become an adult dog after one year old (one and a half years old at the latest)

The first year a Husky dog ​​is born is equal to 17 human years, and each subsequent year is approximately equal to 4-5 human years. Therefore, if a Husky is one and a half years old, it is equivalent to 20 years old in humans, that is, it is an adult dog.

2. The key points of raising Huskies of different ages are as follows

Generally speaking, the first six months after the birth of a Husky puppy is very critical, because these stages will determine the dog’s personality.

1. Husky dogs start to run and jump 4-12 weeks after birth, and the female dog’s immunity gradually disappears. Therefore, vaccinations should be carried out at this time, and basic training such as teaching the Husky to use the toilet should be started.

2. Husky dogs can be taken for walks after 4 months, so that they can begin to learn human and social rules, and can also be trained on commands other than eating and going to the toilet. 4-6 months after birth is approximately equivalent to 12 or 13 years of human life. A dog’s personality is very easy to train and finalize during this period.

3. After 8 months, the Husky will enter the estrus period. At the same time, dog food can be changed from puppy food to adult dog food one year after birth.

4. Huskies should have a health check-up once a year after they are 5 years old. At the same time, after they become adults, they should take sufficient walks to solve the problem of obesity.

5. A Husky’s 5-year-old age is equivalent to a human being’s 40-year-old age. At this time, a Husky must receive a health check-up every year. It is cost-effective for an adult to have a health check-up only once every four to five years.

Generally speaking, small dogs live longer than large dogs. The average age of indoor dogs is about 13-14 years old, and that of large dogs is about 10-12 years old.
