About the Husky

The Husky is a large breed of dog with a thick coat breed that originated in eastern Siberia. They belong to the dog family of polar dogs and sled dogs.

It is recognizable by its thick double coat, curled tail, and straight triangular ears.

An active, energetic, and resilient breed, a perfect dog for someone who can provide plenty of exercise.

The Siberian huskies were brought in from Alaska during the 19th century, spreading throughout the United States and Canada as sled dogs. Later, they conquered Europe and other parts of the world.

They quickly gained the status of a family pet and show dog. They were no longer used as much as sled dogs as before.

They can usually live between 12 and 15 years.

Height and Weight

A male stands between 53 and 60 cm tall and weighs 20 to 27 kg.
A female stands between 51 and 56 cm tall and weighs between 16 and 22 kg.

Character and Temperament

Despite their wolf-like appearance, the Siberian Husky generally has a gentle temperament. They are a working breed. They are very energetic and enjoy exploring and running. This, combined with their striking appearance, has made them popular as family pets and show dogs.

The Siberian Husky can be extremely friendly, curious, and welcoming towards people; a trait of a poor watchdog. Well-socialized Siberian Huskies are quite gentle with children. However, they should always be supervised around small children. They won’t give up their food easily since food was often scarce in the past.

For this reason, Siberian Huskies may instinctively attack animals such as house cats, birds, squirrels, rabbits, chickens, quails, and even deer. Still, many households enjoy harmony between the cats and Huskies. This works best when the dogs grow up knowing the cats from an early age.

Most Huskies are not aggressive, but some dogs may have a stronger prey drive than others, which can sometimes manifest as aggression towards people.

The Siberian Husky sometimes has traits that some pet owners find undesirable. Despite their friendly nature, they are not as attached to their owners as other popular breeds. They may occasionally refuse to perform a task.

The Siberian Husky can sometimes be challenging due to its independent thinking and requires a firm hand to train them. Proper training requires patience.

The main character traits of a husky are:

Loyal
Reserved with strangers
Active
Intelligent
Alert

Care

The husky’s thick coat requires some care. They should not be clipped or trimmed, although a weekly brushing is recommended. This removes dead hair and also allows for a quick health check.

A husky’s coat consists of two layers. An undercoat to keep him warm and an outer coat that keeps the dog dry during rain.

The undercoat will become thicker or thinner depending on the seasons. This causes a coat change where the dog will shed twice a year. It certainly does no harm to give the husky an extra brushing during this time.

Appearance

The Siberian Husky shares many outgoing similarities with the Alaskan Malamute as well as many other Spitz breeds like the Samoyed, which has a history similar to that of Huskies.

Siberian Huskies have a thicker coat than most other dog breeds. They come in various colors and patterns, usually with white paws and legs, facial markings, as well as tail tips.

Colors

The most common colors are black – white, gray – white, copper red and white, and pure white, but some individuals may be somewhat brown or reddish spotted.

Distinctive masks, spectacles, and other facial patterns appear in great variety.

They tend to have a wolf-like appearance, although the breed is not more closely related to the wolf than any other dog breed.

Eyes, ears, and tail

Their eyes can be brown, blue, amber, green, hazel, or light brown. The light blue eye color is also part of the breed’s traits, but it is not completely genetically dominant.

The breed may have one brown or hazel eye and the other blue (called “bi-eyed”), or may have blue and another color mixed within the iris of one or both eyes; this latter trait, heterochromia, is called “parti-eyed.” This is one of the few breeds for which different colored eyes are allowed in the show ring.

Its ears are triangular, medium-sized, and erect. Their ears are soft and they have a very good sense of hearing. Its fox-like bushy tail is carried in a sickle curve over the back. Most Siberian Huskies have a white tip at the end of their tail.

Coat

The coat of the Siberian Husky consists of two dense layers. An undercoat and a longer, coarser topcoat.

This topcoat can actually have two different colors. It is not uncommon to find a hair with two colors.

Huskies shed their coat twice a year, with the change of seasons.

Healthy Siberians have little odor. A well-maintained coat is important especially if the dog enjoys playing in water, as the risk of fungal infections increases with a wet coat.

Living Conditions

They are usually not recommended for apartments; however, they can live in apartments if well trained and taken on frequent walks.

Siberian Huskies are very active indoors and ideally have a fenced yard.

Due to their thick coat, these dogs prefer cool climates. They should be monitored on hot days and provided with some shade and air conditioning.

This breed prefers to live in a group.

The Siberian Husky requires a considerable amount of exercise, but should not be overexerted in warm weather.

They need a large garden with a tall fence, and bury the wire at the base of the fence a little into the ground because they will likely try to dig their way out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a husky need to be on a leash?

Siberian Huskies are generally not recommended for first-time dog owners. The Siberian husky has a strong running instinct and for their own safety should never be walked without a leash. They are trained to travel long distances without looking back, and a fenced garden ensures you won’t lose your dog.
Siberian huskies also dig large holes and are extremely resourceful in escaping from a fenced garden.
Because they are sled dogs, they have a very strong desire to pull, so good obedience training is advised. The Siberian husky requires daily exercise and a secure fence.

How much exercise does a husky need?

A lot! This is not a breed for someone who sits on the couch all day.
A puppy should gradually build up exercise. Too much too soon could strain their joints. Start with short walks and increase gradually. You wouldn’t let a child run a marathon without prior training.
An adult dog can probably walk longer than you can keep up. Fortunately, it can also do with less as long as the dog gets its daily exercise. And don’t overdo it at the start or the dog will simply be over-exercised. What does a Siberian husky eat?

A Siberian husky is a carnivore. It will therefore need to eat either meat or a meat substitute. A dog kibble is the easiest to provide. Anyone can feed it, including the caretaker during your leave or illness. Be sure that the dog kibble is of high quality to prevent problems.
Some huskies suffer from a grain allergy. In that case, try a grain-free diet. This can be done with special dog kibble or by feeding meat.
Puppies also need different nutrition than an adult husky. Naturally, a puppy eats puppy dog kibble.

Origin

The husky was brought to Alaska in 1909. They had been used for centuries by the Chukchi in Siberia to pull sleds and as guard dogs for the herds. This is the only dog breed that officially carries the name sled dog (= husky) in its breed name.

There are different versions about the origin of the name ‘Husky’ for sled dogs. The most likely explanation is that it derives from the name the first explorers gave to the Eskimos and their dogs. A sturdy, fast sled dog with a lot of endurance from Siberia became known as a Siberian Husky; this breed name was officially recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1931.

They were perfect working dogs in the harsh Siberian conditions: strong, capable, and quite happy to work for hours on end.

It was brought to North America by fur traders in Malamute for Arctic breeds because of their great speed.

Popularity surged in January 1925. At that time, a diphtheria epidemic broke out in Nome and there was not enough serum available. It had to be brought from far away and in winter this was only possible with the help of sled dogs.

Under normal conditions, it took about 25 days to cover the distance of roughly 1000 km. Many Eskimos, Native Americans, and trappers risked their lives with their sled dogs.

Expeditions

Gunnar Kasson with the lead dog Balto was the first to bring the life-saving serum to the city of Nome on February 2. The transport had taken a week! Although the many brave men and their dogs who participated in this rescue mission have been forgotten, one dog keeps the memory of this race alive. It is the statue of Balto, which still stands today in Central Park in New York. Below it is inscribed with the words:
Endurance, Fidelity, Intelligence (uithoudingsvermogen, trouw, intelligentie).

This pool dog was also used during Admiral Byrd’s Antarctic expeditions, which included an exploratory trip over the North Pole (Feb/Mar 1947).
