demonpuppy tells us more.
Hey you guys, the OP here! I just wanted to clear some things up. My puppy is very sweet. She has never pulled anyone else while on the leash. She's actually one of the most timid dogs I've ever owned and yes, I have owned dogs before and I know the breed. But because she is a puppy anomaly and doesn't pull, I thought it would be ok for my niece to walk her as I walked next to them. Also, this took place in my fenced off back yard. I do however have a stone terrace, which is where my niece got pulled over on. I know that my niece getting hurt is probably my fault and I've now learned that my puppy goes crazy when there are squirrels in sight. I've apologized to my sister-in-law. My niece is fine, she was back up and playing within minutes, but her mother wont let her near my puppy and I got a talking to. So, hope that clears some things up for you guys.

... 1st: 5yo's don't walk full-sized dogs. You just don't do that. 2nd: Huskies are big (well, technically high side of medium...) 3rd: Your sister sounds like a simpleton. Maybe she should nick-name her daughter something instead. :P 4th: Don't worry about the moniker, it'll be useful later. ;) "...they call him demon-dog for a REASON!" lol.
How ignorant of you!
wow...you should be ashamed. I have a husky-retriever, and at three months, he came up to my knee and weighed 70 pounds. he was able to pull a 6" man off balance. of course the dog is going to pull your little 5 year old girl! your lucky nothing more serious happened you F!@#ing idiot!
Huskies + small children = children dead. Remember how Huskies are used as work dogs up North? They typically pull things? Yeah.
#3, you're a moron. I mean seriously, you're a moron. Err. I also agree with #93. Since my parents bred Huskies for 12 years. They're strong dogs, I say you deserve it. Also, look up info on the dog you're buying/getting. If you don't know what kind of dog it is, then you don't need it. Siberian Huskies are breed for pulling sleds, they're hyper and full of energy. Just make sure not to ever let the dog of it's leash, because if you do, you'll most likely never see it again, and it'll end up hit by a car.
Um, #92, how can you agree with #93? Big deal. The kid probably whined and begged until the aunt gave in.

I clicked both "I agree, your life is f***ed" and "you deserved that one". While you didn't know its strength, you should *not* have let your niece handle it.
Stupid that she's not allowed near the puppy anymore. The puppy didn't mean any harm, your niece probably barely even cared about getting hurt, and her mom is just feeding a possible fear for puppies and/or dogs.
