In the following, we will attach information about Husky ​​that you must know before adopting it.

1- Husky Loves to Run

Most of them are sled dogs for the Chukji people of northeast Asia. Husky are trained for speed and endurance. Therefore they really like to run and often run many miles before they finally stop. Use a leash when walking Husky because they are very strong and impulsive and like to chase small animals. This means the owner must hold the leash firmly enough to hold them if necessary.

2. "Houdini in the Dog World"

The Pennsylvania-based rescue organization Tails of the Tundra Siberian Husky Rescue calls huskies the “Houdini of the dog world”. They warned that Husky likes to enter small holes, climb or dig the ground under the fence, run away when the door is open and they also dare to break even the electric fences. So keeping this Husky safe requires supervision and should not be out of sight of the owner. 

3. Husky Should Not Be Lonely

Husky is a very social dog and is pack/group oriented. They want companionship with people and other dogs. If Husky is left for a long time, you must be prepared to accept the consequences, usually Husky will howl, destroy some of your favorite things or may even try to run away.

4. Husky Loves Everyone

Husky is not suitable as a guard dog, because Husky gives love without love. It could be that if there is an intruder they will be welcomed like their family.

5. Have a strong predatory instinct

If you raise other animals such as cats, be careful because Husky also has a very strong predatory instinct. They are probably good with people and most dogs though. Not infrequently they will also chase and kill other animals such as small animals, livestock such as chickens and even small dogs. Your husky should always be under your control when they are outside and never escape your care when you have other small pets at home. But not all huskies are like that.

6. Get Ready for Husky's Hair Loss

For prospective foster parents/owners of Husky who do not have a vacuum cleaner, you should prepare it immediately before you bring a Husky home. In addition to their daily shedding of hair, a Husky will undercoat at least once a year or two undercoats at least once a year or twice. And don't even think about wanting to cool your husky by shaved; because their undercoat fur acts as an insulator, not only against cold temperatures, but also against heat and harmful UV rays.
