Siberian Husky
The Siberian Husky, a thickly coated, compact sled dog of medium size and great endurance, was developed to work in packs, pulling light loads at moderate speeds over vast frozen expanses. This northern breed is friendly, fastidious, and dignified.
About the Siberian Husky
The graceful, medium-sized Siberian Husky’s almond-shaped eyes can be
either brown or blue—and sometimes one of each—and convey a keen but
amiable and even mischievous expression. Quick and nimble-footed,
Siberians are known for their powerful but seemingly effortless gait.
Tipping the scales at no more than 60 pounds, they are noticeably
smaller and lighter than their burly cousin, the
Alaskan Malamute. In fact, breeders and
fanciers prefer the moniker Siberians over huskies, as the latter
suggests a bigger, brawnier dog than what is the standard for the breed.
As born pack dogs, Siberians enjoy family life and get on well with
other dogs; their innate friendliness render them indifferent watchdogs.
This breed is also energetic and can’t resist chasing small animals, so
secure running room is a must. An attractive feature of the breed:
Siberians are naturally clean, with little doggy odor.
