Siberian Husky

Working GroupOutgoingFriendlyAlertGentleIntelligent
The Siberian Husky is a distinctive and energetic dog breed known for its striking appearance and friendly temperament. Originating in Siberia, they were bred by the Chukchi tribe to pull sleds in harsh Arctic conditions, developing a robust and resilient nature. Their thick, double coats protect them from extreme temperatures, and their expressive eyes can range from blue to brown or even be bi-eyed. Huskies are intelligent and social, thriving on human interaction and the company of other dogs. However, their high energy and prey drive mean they require ample exercise and early socialization to prevent destructive behaviors.
