A husky is one of the best dogs for an active lifestyle. If you love to run or hike, a husky will quickly become your best friend. At the same time, a husky is the worst dog if you live a sedentary lifestyle. Husky owners joke about their dog eating the couch or destroying things when they become bored, and this is the truth. A husky is a smart dog that gets bored easily. He needs plenty of play time and space to run, or he will find a less ideal way to spend his time.
If you have a male husky, one of your first tasks is to find the perfect name for him. These huskies were brought from the north and were once a sled dog. Because of this, many of the best names related to the cold or from their native land.
