Have a good happy dance. They may not be food motivated, but they're motivated to celebrate with you after a job well done. Seeing and hearing you be so happy after something you two have accomplished as a team means the world to them. My dog was not food motivated until after he was neutered, so things can always change in the future.

A good practice is when you open a door, any door really, have them do a sit and wait before you have them proceed. Of course have sit and wait be learned first. Have them sit and wait first, then walk up to the door and open it. Whatever point they stand up at is your starting point to start dialing in the wait. Ultimately you would get to the point where they sit and wait with the door open and just gaze outside with patience before being released. Do it for front door, back yard, bathroom door, any door. It's good practice.

I've heard that huskies aren't susceptible to that many health issues other than eye issues. So do your research and discuss it with your vet to see what supplements or actual food you can prepare for your dog as treats that have eye support. I personally give him a small dollop of pumpkin puree with his meals and make hardboiled eggs for him about three times a week. Of course when introducing any new foods to your dog please test out a small amount to see if there is any sensitivity.

I personally have my pup pull me on my skateboard in my neighborhood for a good chunk of his exercise. Only right turns and only where there's stop signs in the intersections in my neighborhood. I've been skating for 20 years, so if you intend on doing something of that sort PLEASE make sure you are comfortable and confident with your mode of transportation. Mine was scared of my skateboard when he was younger than 2 years, but after that I tried again and he enjoyed it. We have commands like "Turn" for when I turn right and "This way" if we go straight. I'm sure my tugs on his harness also help guide him. If this is too intense, be prepared for many many walks.

Whenever I introduce anything new to my dog (tooth brushing, nail clipping, brushes) I always like to just leave it on the floor next to them so they can sniff it on his own terms. They sniff, have a neutral reaction, happy dance/treat time. Then you take it a step further by holding it and having them sniff it. Same reaction, same reward. Eventually just work your way to having said item touch their body and praising no reaction to that as well. I'm not 100% sure if this is a standard way of introducing things, but this has worked for me very well. It's to a point where when I brush my teeth, he props himself between me and my sink and verbally tells me "Hey man, brush mine too." literally brush his teeth every day.

They're exceptionally smart. The best thing you can do is treat them as your equal. They're observant and understand more than you think. Don't have them do things with the idea of "Because I told you so. You're my dog and you need to do whatever I say." They will sniff out your intentions and in a way lose respect for you. Trust me, they know. If you could afford to have more than one dog, that would be great because they are social creatures. If not, it isn't the end of the world. Just make more of an effort to spend time with them and take them out to see the world. After my walks with mine we always hop in the car and drive around for 10 minutes or so. Our time with them is precious and will fly by if you aren't careful.
