I would really like to hear more about this breed. Are they good with cats and other dogs? If you get them as puppies that is.
They can be a handful for inexperienced owners. They have a high prey drive, so small animals need to be kept in their cages away from the dog. Sometimes cats are okay, as long as the husky is socialized well. They "blow their coat" twice a year. They have been known to jump 6 feet while standing in spot, so they must have a high fence to deter them. They are also champion diggers. They are very independant and stubborn, so they should have some obedience training. But they are very very nice dogs. They love everyone. They don't make good guard dogs. They love to be close to their family. They aren't really big "barkers" but they are big "screamers!" You should hear Tikeya lol.

I used to have a light red husky with amber eyes. His name was Cheeko. He was gorgeous, and HUGE, way bigger than a husky should be. My mom took him to the Spca when I was 10.
