Please understand that Huskies are an energetic breed, smart and family oriented but not for everyone. They have been bred to run for thousands of years, they require an escape-proof fenced yard and supervision. If you expect to be able to train your Husky to stay on the property, don't fool yourself. It is not that the breed is less intelligent than others, just following their basic instinct to run and not stop. They are a pack animal so prefer not to be tied up outside by themselves, they like to be part of the family. IF YOU DO USE TIE OUTS- please remember...Make sure the line is TOO SHORT for a climbing dog to get over the top of any fence. OR, the line is long enough, so the dog who climbs the fence will be able to land completely on the other side. This will prevent potential tragedy from strangulation. Also, body harness type of devices are best, rather that just a plain neck collar for outdoor dogs. Dogs left outdoors on tie outs are easy pickings for any animal who may want to attack.
Choose an older Husky if you want a calmer dog, young Huskies need a lot of exercise and stimulation or they will become bored. A bored Husky can get destructive, that is not their fault. Please don't rush into a Northern Breed Dog only because of their beauty. Be prepared and know what to expect! These dogs are not watchdogs and are independent. Do your research first! Good Luck!

There are active puppy mills all over Canada. Their biggest customers are pet shops, and dog fight rings.

Please consider adopting a rescue dog instead of supporting the greed and abusive practices of puppy mill operators.
