Siberian Husky

Breed History

The Siberian Husky breed started its iconic history from the Chukchi people of Siberia. These dogs were developed as sled dogs capable of enduring the harsh environment of the Arctic.

Sibes were considered more than just working dogs, as they were also valued as family. They tend to sleep beside their owners for warmth during freezing nights.

These dogs caught the world's attention in the early 1900s when they were imported to Alaska for sled dog racing. Their speed, agility, and stamina quickly outshone larger freight dogs.

Today, these dogs are considered one of the most loving and loyal dog breeds in the world.

Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the white blood cells. Additionally, it can also cause problems in the spleen, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.

Siberian Husky Grooming Guide

Coat Maintenance

Siberian Huskies have a dense double coat that requires brushing 3 to 4 times a week to remove dirt and loose hairs. Use a slicker brush and gently brush away.

Skin Health

These dogs will need brushing to help take care of their skin. Gentle shampoos, coconut oil, and oatmeal creams can also help prevent skin issues.

Bathing

Huskies are naturally clean and don’t need frequent baths. A bath twice a year is already enough. Use gentle shampoos and dry them thoroughly.

Nail Trimming

Generally, their nails should be trimmed every month, depending on the length. Use sharp, dog-specific nail clippers.

Ear Care

They require regular ear cleaning every month or if you notice any signs or odor. Use a pet-safe cleaning solution and cotton balls.

Eye Care

Huskies benefit from eye cleaning every 1 to 2 days because they are prone to tear stains. Use a soft, damp cloth and wipe away from the eyes.

Teeth Care

Daily brushing is recommended, but even brushing 3 to 4 times a week is a good routine. Use a vet-approved toothpaste and toothbrush.

Physical Characteristics

Head

Siberian Huskies have a medium-sized, well-proportioned head. Their muzzle is of moderate length and tapers slightly.

Eyes

Their eyes are almond-shaped, coming in shades of blue, brown, amber, green, or even bi-colored. The eyes help create the iconic mischievous gaze.

Ears

Their triangular ears are set high on the head with slightly rounded tips.

Body

Sibes have compact and well-muscled bodies with a deep chest.

Limbs

They have strong, well-proportioned legs, with feet that are compact and well-padded.

Tail

Huskies have a bushy tail, which they often curl over their nose when resting to stay warm.

Coat

They have a thick double coat comprised of a dense undercoat and a soft top coat. Common coat colors include black, white, gray, copper-red, and agouti.
