We've always had male dogs, Sydney is the first female dog that has lived at our house. Reggie and Nebo are males.

I think Nebo is the most intelligent of them and the best behaved...he's the only one I took through obedience classes too though. He was neutered at 4 months, it wasn't until he was over a year old that he started lifting his leg. Though he's had accidents in the house, I wouldn't consider any of them because of marking (just because he couldn't hold it!) he's never lifted his leg in the house. Even still he doesn't go out of his way to leg lift, he still squats he just lifts his leg if there happens to be something nearby to lift it on. Though not overly affectionate, he's a very laid back dog, I've heard female huskies tend to be more high strung. The term "bitch" didn't become the slang it is today for no reason.

Sydney is very affectionate, she's a sweetie for sure but we call her a dumb blonde sometimes...she just wants to be petted and loved, she's not really interested in learning tricks much.

And Reggie...well, when he was younger he was affectionate...now he's just old and crabby. The only time I remember him ever specifically marking in the house was after we watched my aunts female dachshund. I don't think he was neutered at the time though. Smokey (RB poodle) did mark in the house, but, once again, we were stupid and didn't neuter him until he was old.
