Originally from the Siberian Arctic, the Siberian Husky is active and resilient, bred to pull heavy loads, as much as 60 kilometers in one day, and is intelligent.

Siberian Huskies are loving, gentle, playful, happy-go-lucky dogs that are fond of their families. Keen, docile, social, relaxed and rather casual, this is a high-energy dog, especially when young. Good with children and friendly with strangers, they are not watchdogs, for they bark little and love everyone. They only obey a command if they see the human is stronger minded than themselves.

Their life span is 12 - 15 years.
