Thanks Aly! I love my dork dog too.

I agree with Aly...how much experience with dogs do you have? Huskies are very independent, and definitely not the dog for everyone. They are of course very intelligent but really, really stubborn....you can teach them something, but they will only do it "if they feel like it." lol

How big is your yard, and how secure is the fencing? Huskies are known to be bad diggers (though for some reason mine is not) and also extreme escape artists...the fence should be at least 6 ft high. They also LOVE to run, run, run, RUN! They should never be allowed to run off-leash except in a fenced yard.

Siberian huskies shed like crazy...expect them to "blow" their coat about twice a year, and also they will just shed pretty much constantly on a normal basis.

As far as temperament, huskies are not guard dogs....they will not bark at intruders, and usually are friendly to everyone. They may be a bit reserved at times. My Nebo is a very sweet dog, when he feels being one. He loves kids, but has a tendency to knock them over, lol. He likes other dogs for the most part.

Oh, and they have a very high prey drive, so it's usually pretty hard to get them to behave around small animals like cats, birds, etc.

Feel free to ask any more questions!
