They're dogs that need a walk everyday. They are full of energy, but really hard to train. They are however beautiful :D

any pet will get anxious,

but dogs(especially big huskies) can destroy furniture , lawns, fences, everything, they NEED to be exercised thoroughly

that's just personality though, most huskies are extremely playful


he's playful but on "his" time. when he'd bring you the toy he'd play. if i wanted to initiate the playing he'd snob it up. my other dogs jumped at the opportunity. it might have been since i was young and wasn't the alpha of the house but still, a snobby dog.

I know an owner of a Husky.

She said that she takes him to a dog park 2-3 times a week to run around + daily walks :)

I would suggest a different dog. Because they require alot of work.
It's all worth it but you won't be able to properly assert your alpha role over a husky when your schedule is so full.


Alright then =] Thank you for your help as well

my parents had one when i was growing up. cute/pretty but stuck up personality. if that makes sense. we also had a dog at the time we got from the pound. they had completely different personalities

you put food in front of the mut and he went to town

you put food in front of the husky he'd get up and walk away

he was cool to look at, but wasn't nearly as fun to play with as the golden retrievers, boxers, german shepards, etc etc other dogs i've owned.

also very territorial. i remember he took one of my socks and i went to take it from him and he snapped at me. i could pick up my st bernards favorite toy/food with my mouth (not that i would) and he would just watch me do it.


Ahhh I feel the same way; some dogs are very nice to look at but when you interact with them it is very hard to get to them =]

Ahhhh, yeah I have only had experience with smaller - medium size dogs but not big ones like a husky, wow that is crazy; I have never seen a dog do that except for maybe pooping on the carpet when I come home; and yes huskies look like awesome dogs >D<;

ALL dogs will do that if they're not properly exercised

if you plan to get one, get a bike or learn to run :P
