The Siberian Husky is a medium-sized working dog from Siberia. They are known for their thick, double coat, which can be black, white, grey, or red and white in color. Siberian Huskies are friendly, outgoing, and loyal, and make great family pets. They are active and require plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to stay healthy and happy.
