Pulling the Sled
Lots of Energy
Siberian huskies are very active dogs that enjoy regular exercise. The breed needs space to run around and burn off energy.
Made for the Snow
With a double coat of medium-length fur, Siberian huskies have a soft, dense undercoat and a straight, somewhat flat-lying outer coat. It's an ideal coat to keep the breed warm in cold climates.
Serving in the Army
During World War II, many Siberians served in the U.S. Army's search-and-rescue teams, which gained them popularity amongst the public.
Long-Distance Runners
Siberian huskies have great endurance, and can run at medium speed over snowy terrain for lengthy distances.
