a siberian husky in s'pore
my friend has a husky in his house. it belonged to his son's friend who has gone overseas for studies. the dog stays in a big cage outside the house, just next to the garden. it is kept on a leash most of the time. when my friend is home and free, he lets it play in the garden. it does not bark much but today when i visited his place, it barked quite loudly.
huskies are not meant to be first time dog guardians. they are difficult to train as they are very strong-willed. you have to be physically strong to just walk them. they will certainly need obedience training. and they need space as their excercise needs are above average. they are very independent creatures.
they are runners and they have no homing instinct, so if they escape, do not expect that they will return. you have to have a fenced area for them. they are working dogs, so not the most suitable breed for pet duty. not really suited for young children whom they can knock over with ease. they need to be challenged and have something to do daily.
they are not a particularly protective or loyal breed. they have the potential to be aggressive. (they are not descended from the wolf!)
they are double-coated so not suitable to living in singapore. their grooming needs vary, depending on the type of husky. be prepared to brush daily. they are big eaters. they need a lot of protein to maintain muscles mass.
