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".

1 of them is listed as a cross, as the rescue describes it: Husky Cross. Breed labels on rescue listings are often a best guess from looks.
The rescues mark 4 as able to live with children and 4 with other dogs. Where a profile says nothing, it doesn't mean no: ask the rescue.
