Despite the fact that the husky's ancestors originally lived on Far East, the breed is considered American, since it was the breeders of America who brought it into the form in which these dogs became known throughout the world as blue-eyed wolves.
Sled huskies are perhaps one of the oldest dog breeds that have survived almost unchanged to this day.
All this time, huskies have been a serious help to a person, no matter where his fate takes him: these are real working dogs.
Nowadays there is no longer such a need for the working qualities of these breeds; they gradually become companion dogs, successfully performing at exhibitions and competitions, and even nugget actors, as in any of
Compatibility of Husky and his owner
If you fall for the appearance of a husky, before buying a puppy, be sure to read information about the character of this breed, and first, enjoy it.
Any dog is not a plush toy, and when it comes to working huskies, the pros and cons need to be weighed more than once.
What is he like - perfect husky owner? Yes, almost any person, there are only a couple of nuances: he must be a temperamental and active sports fan.
If you prefer to relax on the couch, you shouldn’t take a puppy of this breed - it won’t end well: it’s a very pity and a shame for a beautiful animal, for whom all life is movement, being walked around the house on a leash.
At the time of the highest popularity of the breed, when everyone rushed to get huskies for their stunning appearance, advertisements often say “I’ll give away a husky due to a move.” But the problem was that the owners were unprepared: people simply did not calculate the time and effort.
So, what surprises can you expect from the breed?
How do huskies get along with cats?
Great, but only with your own people - you should always remember this.
Husky – good hunters , although highly specialized (they are capable of finding and killing a small animal, but bringing it to the owner is not a fact), so any strange cat will be perceived as an object of hunting.
The same, although less often, applies to small decorative fluffy dogs.
- You are unlikely to be able to completely suppress this instinct, so you should pay more attention to behavior correction.
Husky attitude towards children
This is one of the few dog breeds that does not have aggression towards humans, so you can be calm about your child.
The only problem- the size coupled with the activity of the husky: a dog that is not trained in correct behavior can simply knock down a child in a game.
- Therefore, all communication between the animal and the child should be under your control.
Have doubts about the size of your dog?
Why does a husky howl and what to do about it?
Most of this breed extremely talkative, which does not mean they are gibberish - barking at any incomprehensible sound is beneath their dignity.
But the huge range of different grunts, growls, whines and howls will make you doubt the phrase “with Bucks can't talk».
In fact, huskies rarely howl, usually just out of boredom. Therefore, if your neighbors start greeting you home from work more joyfully than your dog, it means your husky is clearly lacking in physical activity.
Huskies were created for good physical training, which is quite difficult to imagine in a city, so you will have to use your imagination.
- An excellent solution would be training classes: This will help you build a relationship with your dog and keep him fully engaged. Usually, after mental exercises, dogs sleep peacefully and grumble less.
- As after others useful exercises : long walks in the park, cycling, rollerblading, skiing. If possible, you can join the sledding sport enthusiasts - this is the dog’s native element.
Husky habits
In fact, there are few of them and most habits are banal mistakes in education. But there are a few that are worth highlighting:
Digging– the passion of many huskies.
If you live outside the city, on your own property, then your day should begin with an inspection of the perimeter of the fence. Otherwise, next time you will encounter a second problem with this breed.
Husky doesn't care what to dig- a hole under a fence, a garden bed, a hole on a path - they like the process itself, and city residents often encounter this on a walk.
If you have a few huskies in your dog walking area, the area will soon resemble a field after a bombing.
Unfortunately, in a city apartment, huskies can also engage in digging, masterfully opening up floors and lifting linoleum.
In this case there's no use scolding them: better let's more loads for a walk and make an appointment with a dog handler.
Vagrancy- in general, the problem of almost all huskies, but with the condition of the gullibility and curiosity of the husky - sometimes it becomes simply a disaster.
In no case do not self-walk this breed: firstly, it is illegal; secondly, it is deadly for a husky.
Although here it is necessary be extremely careful: Husky is not a breed that always runs side by side and looks into your mouth waiting for a command.
Stubbornness- this statement may be controversial - many Husky fans believe that this is not stubbornness, but independence.
In fact, whatever you call this quality, the fact remains a fact: Husky is not a breed for beginners. Its representatives are very smart and self-sufficient.
If you want quiet devotion, following on your heels and stability of behavior, get or.
Huskies quickly get bored with monotonous commands: you will have to work hard to interest the dog.
And for any ban you have, the cunning one will have a lot of ways to get around it.
Do you want “something like a wolf”?
If you feel that a husky is your breed, don’t hesitate for a minute - go ahead and get a puppy!
For most dog lovers, the question of their relationship with children is relevant. Therefore, before you bring a husky into your home, it is useful to learn about how they relate to small children and other animals.
How this breed relates to children is best illustrated by stories about the Eskimos who bred this breed. The birth of a child among this people is a big event, since in the harsh northern conditions, pregnancy and the first years of a baby’s life are associated with various difficulties.
Eskimos use their beloved dogs as nannies and a source of warmth. They drive the entire pack into their home and place the child between the dogs. This is how the little Eskimo grows up, surrounded by warm and friendly Husky dogs. Of course for modern people Living in warm and cozy apartments, such excessive trust in dogs may seem strange, but this story clearly proves that children and huskies get along well with each other.
This breed is very welcoming and friendly towards all people; it is almost impossible to train. It was bred for other purposes, so it is not at all aggressive. The breeders of this dog note the husky’s reverent attitude towards children; there are no known cases of husky aggression towards people and especially towards children.
Although we should not forget that the genetic characteristics of a particular breed certainly play a big role in the formation, the upbringing of a particular dog also has a great influence. If the owner constantly shows his husky bad example, screaming loudly and physically punishing the child, then she can take this behavior as a basis.
A dog is a kind of reflection of its owner, so you should always remember this and behave accordingly, so as not to be surprised later why the dog began to treat your children badly.
They live like a cat and a dog
Husky and cat can become good friends or, by at least, live in peace. To do this, it is advisable that they appear in your family at approximately the same time. There is an opinion that huskies are very hostile towards cats. The basis for this judgment was the fact that huskies are a pack animal that natural conditions survives by killing more weak species for the sake of your survival.
If you don’t specifically train a husky to attack other animals, then your well-fed and well-groomed pet, so in this matter a lot depends on the owner. Although, of course, you should always remember that a cat is a weaker creature, and regulate the relationship between your pets so that everyone is happy and no one offends anyone.

07.12.2017 13:12In the American city of San Jose, three Siberian huskies adopted a kitten. All the world's media write about these unusual friends, and the page of the huskies Lilo, Infinity, Miko and the cat Rosie has become one of the most popular on Instagram.
The story of an animal family is a real story about an abandoned child with a happy ending. The three-month-old cat was suffering from exhaustion and, according to the owners, was “dying.”
The owners decided to take a risk and placed the foundling next to the leader of the husky pack - Lilo, who never had and never will have her own puppies. The dog immediately felt in the kitten kindred spirit and began to take care of him - did not leave for a minute.
Husky Lilo, who never had children of her own, began to care for Rosie as her child.
Friendship, attention, warmth and care saved the cat’s life. Now she copies the behavior of the dogs that replaced her parents: she walks on a leash, plays with them on the street, sleeps and eats with the rest of the “pack.”
The owners say that Rosie has completely adopted some of the traits of her friends: for example, she is “fearless” and is not at all afraid of water.
“Rosie has become a full member of the pack,” ABCNews quotes one of the animal owners.
Currently, 365 thousand people are subscribed to the account where photographs of four best friends appear. In total, more than 1000 photographs were published there, each of which evokes genuine affection.
How often does the life of our little brothers depend on happy occasion. This is one of the stories that could have had a completely different ending, but, fortunately, chance intervened, the very happy one.
A small blind stray kitten could have died somewhere on the street if kind people had not accidentally found him, picked him up and brought him home. And if in their house Rosie, as the kitten was named, would not have met a husky named Lilo. The two immediately felt a certain connection between them, and after a week of such amazing closeness and warmth, Rosie opened her eyes and was able to walk on her own.
“She couldn’t do it the first night,” Lilo’s owner writes on Instagram. — Rosie looked weak and limped badly. But by some miracle she was able to reach Lilo and clung to her. Surprisingly, the dog almost immediately became a kitten full second mom."
When Rosie was found she was very weak and almost dying
She was about 3 weeks old and in terrible shape.
But then Rosie met the husky Lilo, who replaced her mother
At first Rosie limped and was very weak, but in Lilo's arms she quickly recovered
Since then, Rosie has been feeling much better and acting like a healthy and happy kitten!
Lilo never had her own puppies, and never will again.
But perhaps motherhood was her calling
Now Rosie is already 3.5 months old, and she is happy in her new family
She even goes for walks with her new mom!
