What Huskies are like to live with
The Royal Kennel Club calls the Siberian Husky "the lightest and fastest of the sled dogs". It says the breed comes from the north-east of Siberia, where it pulled sleds over long distances and lived alongside families, who bred it for working ability and temperament. The breed standard describes a dog that is "friendly and gentle, alert and outgoing" and "does not display traits of the guard dog".
