What is a "husky"?

The Siberian Husky is a medium-sized working dog breed known for its striking appearance, thick double coat, and strong endurance. Huskies are known for their wolf-like appearance, with piercing blue eyes, pointed ears, and a thick, plush coat that comes in various colors and patterns. They are highly energetic and intelligent dogs, originally bred for sled pulling and endurance running in harsh Arctic environments. Huskies are known for their friendly and outgoing personalities, and they are generally good with people and other dogs. However, they can be independent and stubborn at times, and they require consistent training and exercise to prevent behavioral issues. Huskies have a strong prey drive and should be supervised around small animals. They have a strong desire to roam and explore, so a securely fenced yard and proper leash management are important. Huskies require regular grooming to maintain their thick coat and keep their skin healthy. They have a strong instinct to run and should always be leashed or securely contained in a fenced area. Huskies are best suited to active and experienced dog owners who can provide them with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and consistent training.
