    I do not think a siberian husky would be good in your situation at all. They have a strong prey drive and a desire to run....I just can't imagine one being happy without a fenced yard to run in. They are medium-large size (40-60 lbs). They do usually love kids (mine does) but they may be too rambunctious and could knock them over, etc.

    I would talk to some good rescue groups. Hopefully there are some near you that have dogs fostered in homes and have had them around children so they can tell you how they are with them.

    That's what I kind of figured.

    I don't want to adopt a husky and have him unhappy. My daughter will just have to wait until she gets on her own to adopt a husky.
