The Siberian sled dog (Russian: Сибирский хаски, Sibirskiy haski, English: Siberian husky) is commonly known as Husky. The Siberian Husky weighs between 25 to 55 pounds (16 to 27kg) and is about 20 to 23.5 inches (51 to 60cm) tall. It is a medium-sized dog. The Siberian Husky is an original and ancient dog breed that lives in northeastern Siberia and southern Greenland. The Husky's name comes from its unique hoarse cry.

Huskies have changeable personalities, some are extremely timid, and some are extremely violent. Huskies that have entered the mainland and families have lost these extreme personalities and are relatively docile. They are a popular pet dog all over the world.

The Siberian Husky has a larger body size

Several dog breeds have thick coats, and come in many colors and patterns. They usually have white claws and limbs, facial patterns and a pointed tail. The most common coat colors are black and white, gray and white, copper-red (copper-red) and white, and pure white. Many individuals also have brown. , reddish hair, gray-brown shades or mottled spots. It is also very common to have various patterns on the face that resemble masks or glasses. Despite their smaller size and softer hair, Siberian Huskies have a similar appearance to wolves because their genes are closest to their original wolf ancestors than other types of dogs. [1] It is for this reason that Huskies are His expression can often switch between handsome and cute in an instant.

Eyes

Usually brown, light brown or blue. Light blue eye color is a common eye color, but there are exceptions. A dog may have one eye that is brown or light brown and the other eye that is blue. This phenomenon is called "bi-eyed"; Or one eye may be blue and the iris of the other eye may be mottled, a condition known as heterochromia iridis, known as "parti-eyed" by Siberian Husky enthusiasts. Among the dog breeds that are commonly raised by people, the Siberian Husky is one of the few dog breeds that can have two eyes of different colors. At the same time, it is also one of the few whose common eye color is blue.

Ears and tail

The Siberian Husky (side) is triangular in shape, with thick hair, medium in size, and generally upright. The tail is brush-like and has an appearance similar to a fox's tail, usually in the shape of an upward sickle.

The Siberian Husky's coat consists of two layers: a dense, cashmere-like undercoat and a long, coarse uppercoat containing short, straight guard hairs. They only shed their undercoat once a year.The shedding process of Gejiu coats is often referred to as blowing their coat. Dogs that mainly live indoors generally don't shed their hair completely once a year, so they don't shed much. In addition, they don't need to be brushed frequently; since soiled hair will fall off naturally, bathing is usually not necessary. Moreover, this kind of dog will often clean its own hair carefully like a cat. Healthy Siberian Huskies have no body odor. Their ears are soft and they hear well.

Nose

Like all dogs, Siberian Huskies' noses are often cool and moist. In some cases, Siberian Huskies can exhibit a phenomenon called 'snow nose' or 'winter nose'. Technically known as "hypopigmentation," this phenomenon is caused by a lack of sunlight during the winter, which causes the nose (or part of it) to fade to brown or pink. Things will get back to normal when summer comes. Snownose occurs in other short-haired breeds; this color change in older dogs may be permanent, although it is not linked to disease.
