A striking, tireless sled dog with a wild look.
The Siberian Husky is a medium-sized working sled dog bred by the Chukchi people of northeast Asia for endurance and companionship. Known for its wolf-like looks, blue or bicoloured eyes and boundless energy, it is friendly, mischievous and famously escape-prone.
Huskies are sociable, pack-oriented dogs that are gentle with people but poor guard dogs — they rarely meet a stranger. They have a powerful prey drive, love to run and dig, and are notorious escape artists, so secure fencing and constant exercise are non-negotiable. They "talk" with expressive howls and are stubbornly independent.
