Huskies do not make good watch dogs as they are extremely playful and love everyone. They are quite patient and gentle with children and prefer to be part of a pack. So they do well in multi dog homes. As a member of a working breed your Husky may become bored easily and require not only exercise but also interaction with its people or its canine companions. Their thick coat normally sheds heavily twice each year with the change of seasons. But if your Husky lives in a warm climate it is likely to shed heavily all year round. Regular brushing is essential for this breed. A brief walk for exercise is not enough. Your Siberian Husky would prefer a long jog or the ability to run freely in a safe area.
