CLEAR ALLSiberian Huskies have gorgeous, thick coats that come in a variety of colours and patterns. Their blue or sometimes multi-coloured eyes and stunning facial masks add to their overall appeal. The Siberian Husky, as the name suggests, originated in the cold climate of Siberia by the Chukchi people. Over the years, these dogs became famed for their hard-work ethic, pulling sleds across icy and snowy terrain.
It’s not difficult to see why many dog lovers are attracted to the Siberian Husky’s wolf-like appearance. However, this is a smart, athletic breed with an independent streak that can make them challenging for novice owners. These dogs are more suited to owners who understand their unique needs. Huskies are working dogs that need plenty of mental and physical stimulation to remain happy. So, ensure you have the time to devote to these impressive canines.
With their eye-catching looks and superb talents, Siberian Huskies have become popular muses with film producers, artists, and writers. This medium-sized working dog holds power, athleticism, and an endearing charm. However, to get the most out of this breed you need to make sure they are well socialised and constantly trained so they understand their place in the pack. This social breed can be an ideal canine companion for active families who can ensure that these dogs get all the attention, exercise, and training they need to thrive.

Siberian Huskies are medium-sized canines with a distinct wolf-like appearance. They stand 51 to 60 cm tall and weigh between 15 and 27 kg; males are often significantly larger than females.
As working dogs in an unforgiving climate, Huskies have robust, muscular bodies, with a level topline, deep chest, and long, thick neck. Their heads feature strong jaws, long muzzles, and well-chiselled cheekbones.
Their coat patterning creates a "face mask", an iconic appearance trait of this breed. Most Huskies possess striking light blue eyes, but they can be brown or one of each colour. In addition, their eyes are set wide apart, unlike their ears that, sit high on their head closely together and are triangular in shape.
Siberian Huskies have dense double coats with medium-length hair. The undercoat is thicker and softer than the top coat, and their tails are well-feathered to create a bushy, fox-like tail. Their feet are also heavily covered in fur, with webbing between the toes, two traits designed to help them stay warm in the harsh Siberian climate.
A Husky's coat can be one of many different colours and with varying markings. However, grey and white, black and white, sable and white, and red and white are all standard coat colours for this breed.
Siberian Huskies are energetic yet gentle, hardworking yet cuddly, and independent yet friendly. They adore human company, are highly social, and are very welcoming to everyone they meet, including children. This makes them wonderful companion dogs for all types of families.
However, these canines are used to living in packs, so they require training to understand who the alpha is.
Huskies are playful and a little mischievous, so they may try to test your boundaries, but they are very smart and understand when no means no! Firm, positive reinforcement training is best for this breed.
Huskies should also be leash trained as they love to run and have a lot of energy to get rid of. Because of their high energy levels, they do require more exercise than some other breeds. However, you will soon know if they are not getting enough exercise, as they resort to destructive behaviour when bored.
Huskies can also be loud dogs known to howl rather than bark. However, you can minimise this by keeping them entertained and training them from an early age.
Siberian Huskies are an excellent fit for families with children, as they match the high energy of a kid. They are also very gentle towards children, but of course, as a big dog, they could accidentally knock over a baby or small child. Thus, supervision is still needed.
Huskies love to do activities with their humans, whether hiking, camping, or canoeing. So they naturally thrive with an active, outdoorsy person willing to take them on their adventures.
Finally, as Huskies originally lived in packs, they are used to being around dogs and enjoy the canine company. However, when it comes to cats, it depends on the specific Husky. As they can have strong prey drives, some Huskies chase cats while others leave them alone. Typically, if a Husky puppy grows up around a cat, it will be calm around feline
Their stories

Neo
Russian Blue
We had some concerns purchasing a kitten online but our experience with The Pedigree Paws was great. They connected us with Caroline, the Russian Blue breeder and we had many conversations and received multiple pictures and videos. She answered to all our questions.
The Pedigree Paws verified for us all the vaccinations and health checks to make sure our new kitten was 100% healthy.
Thank you for all your help The Pedigree Paws! Highly recommended!
Jack
Miniature Dachshund
One of the reasons I was hesitant to order a puppy from The Pedigree Paws is because I live in Spain. However they connected me with a very good FCI breeder in Barcelona.
He showed me all the health documents of both parents, their pedigree and answer to all my questions. I am so happy they helped me to find a healthy puppy as finding one by myself was very overwhelming. Contacting The Pedigree Paws was the best decision and I highly recommend them to everybody!

Athena
Chihuahua
It's been a few months since we decided to find a Chihuahua puppy to join our family, however we had issues finding a good breeder.
We contacted The Pedigree Paws and they connected us with a very unique breeder in Greece. Many videos and pictures were shown, the breeder shared with us the proof of vaccinations, deworming and her 5 generation pedigree. We were fortunate as George, the breeder was able to deliver the puppy to us personally. We are very pleased with our beautiful Athena. Thank you, The Pedigree Paws, for being truthful and transparent.
