Huskies shed non stop and love to pull.
That’s the only 2 things in your article that are true of all huskies. I’ve had huskies for the last 25+years.
Each husky has their own individual personality just like people.
Some are great guard dogs, some love everybody.
With patience they can be trained to walk off leash, none of mine were ever tied after training.
Some are greedy when it comes to food, and i’ve had 4 share the same bowl because they hardly ever ate dog food anyways. They’d go down to the brook and catch fish when they were hungry.
My 5 year old daughter used to share ice cream cones with Loki my 160lb male, they’d take turns licking it lol
They are not a dog breed for everybody.
They require alot of time and patience to train right.
But in my experience, every 1 of them is different.
What works training 1 may not work with another.
They can be very stubborn.
Oh and some of the best dogs can come from backyard breeders. Stay away from people breeding to make money. But people breeding because they love the dogs and racing them in the winter will usually have the healthiest dogs, good luck getting a puppy from theses people though. They usually have a waiting list years long.

hi i have a husky and i’m scared he will attack my small yorkie because of their high prey drive. He has sadly killed some of my chickens and i’m starting to worry and not trust him much. Any tips on how I can avoid this.

Hello my wife and I recently got a gorgeous Siberian Husky make names Kodi. We got him from a friend because they didn’t have enough time for the pup, we were looking for a puppy to add to our family and Huskies have been my wife’s dream dog forever. So when I saw the opportunity I seized it and bought Kodi from them. When I got Kodi he was about 11 weeks old, he was born November 5th 2018. Ofcourse the first few days my wife & 7 year old daughter were in love as was I, my 1 year old son more shocked then anything lol but we were really happy with our choice. Then the fun began once he got comfortable with us he was everywhere. Now again we’ve never owned other dogs and weren’t really prepared just wanted to get a puppy for our family to grow up with us. Obviously at this stage he’s teething and learning the basic tricks like sit, lay down, give paw and even speak and was doing really well with potty training. I would say the problem started getting worst when he stopped chewing on the chew toys and started chewing everything else including the wall borders, tv remote and many other things. Through it all I forgave him and avoided keeping things that he would want to grab and just bought more toys. The house started looking like a daycare between my sons toys and Kodi’s lol. I started doing more research on the breed and started noticing a lot of things that we didn’t have to offer him as required or suggested by many. We rent our home and it’s not very big and we don’t have a fenced front yard or a backyard for that matter. So I started feeling bad because I didn’t want to negatively scold him or lock him in the cage just because he was being too hyper or biting too much. I realized he was just feeling anxious and didn’t get enough exercise. He listens to me(most of the time) but not my wife, and he is starting to bite more and more and chews on everything again. That raises a concern because I have children, which he tends to attack more my wife and daughter then my 1 year old son which I don’t understand either. I work during the weekdays and my works once in a while when she’s not being full time super mom to our kids especially the baby. I don’t want to get rid of him because I truly love him and he is a part of my family, we try to play with him as much as we can in the house, he gets his final shots this week then we’ll start to take him to dog parks, oh yea he’s really good with other dogs he has a 1 year old albino husky friend he gets to play with once a week, I’m sorry I’m rambling just need to vent and get sound advice. I was going to get him neutered but then I felt bad once I was there and walked out. My wife has scolded him a few times for biting and locked him in the cage, as have I, but we both agreed that’s not what we want to do with him. We wanna be able to leave the house and trust him enough to have to be in the cage while I’m at work or my wife is out running errands etc. I don’t mind the missed pads or accidents, but the biting, yelling, chewing on everything and jumping on everything is driving us insane and especially him launching at the kids sometimes. The kids play with him nice and the don’t bother him or they’re not screaming or running in the house, they’re very well behaved in the home so it’s not like he can get anxious from the kids. What can I do besides obedience school which we can’t afford right now? He has a healthy diet, I buy him the best food wet and dry, he has every snack possible, loads of toys even one designed to discourage chewing on anything but the toy, we play with him as much as we can and will start taking him regularly to the parks once he’s updated with all of his shots and he even has a play pal. Please help me, I’m reaching a breaking point and I’ve even cried to him and expressed my frustrations to him. He’s so smart and loving with me and I want him to be that way with my wife too. I’m sorry if everything is all over the place I’m just in a desperate state of mind worrying about him and wanting things to get better for all of us. My daughter is even afraid to walk by him without being jumped on and have him bite her. This is bad

In reply to newhusky.

I have the exact same problem!!
I adopted a 4 year old husky. I don’t know her background too much but it seems like she was left alone outside all the time because the only thing she cares about is going outside. When we’re inside, all she does is lay around. She literally does nothing else. She’ll eat, drink then lay around. If she hears my keys or my jacket, she’ll be up and ready to go out. That’s the only thing that interests her is going outside.

I have also had her for 3 weeks. I know it takes a while but I thought she’d be more active by now.

My husky Moon Moon she really love to pull and pull the dog toy with me too XD
” The easiest way to leash train a Husky, is to start when she is young and still small. “<<<<< This one I very agree with you. I start to teach Moon Moon about
" Do not destroy anything in my room only your dog toys " when she was young.
And now she never destroy anything in my room only her own toys
