 |
APPEARANCE
The Siberian Husky is a
medium-sized dog, quick and light on his feet and free and graceful in
action. An agile, athletic and tireless worker. The Siberians are known
for pulling sledge over great distances and herding reindeer. His
characteristic gait is smooth and seemingly effortless. His body
proportions and form reflect this basic balance of power, speed and
endurance. The males of the Siberian Husky breed are masculine
and reflect a basic balance of
power, speed and endurance, never appearing so heavy or coarse as to
suggest a freighting animal, nor so light and fragile as to suggest a
sprint-racing animal. The bitches are feminine but without weakness of
structure. In both sexes the
Siberian Husky gives the appearance of being capable of great endurance.
In proper condition, with muscle firm and well developed, the Siberian
Husky does not carry excess weight. It seldom barks but does howl like
wolves. It is one of the few breeds that can have blue, brown, hazel or
non-solid coloured eyes.

pleasant companion. The temperament of the Siberian Husky is friendly

strangers or aggressive with other dogs. His intelligence, tractability,
and eager disposition makes him a great companion.
