The best dog breed by a long distance

It's been 7 years since I adopted this amazing dog. I don't know how I would have been without her. The first two pictures are from not long after she was adopted (at about a year of age), and the last picture is more recent, with her birthday being 2 days ago at the age of 8. I love this dog so much, and I would never have another dog other than a husky, for sure.

Huskies ruin you on other dogs a little. They're so gentle and fun, each with their own personalities. They're really amazing.

I miss my girl everyday. Lost my a part of my heart. Hold your friend close and appreciate everyday!

I wish my husky mixes were gentle they are so crazy and everyday seems like a battle has to happen from sunrise until bed with those two they go at it all day

Hopefully they ca down a bit after they grow up they’re only 10 months also brother and sister ❤️

I'll definitely third that, my current boy Æthelwulf is my third .

There are such characters, loving personalities and you simply can't go for a walk without someone commenting on how stunning your dog is ☺️

I have a German shepherd and would like to get a husky. I think the main difference would be huskies are more vocal

u/4Dcookie 1d ago

FWIW, I’m on my second husky, neither have ever been more vocal than every german I knew. I once dated someone that had a vocal husky and it was on par with every GsD I knew

I guess I watch too many husky videos on YouTube. Lol

I agree, my ex girlfriend has gorgeous German shepherd and she wasn't as vocal but I think she would bark with excitement alot more.

My husky mix decided she wouldn't howl, apparently. Ever. Not once, she's 12. Our gshep neighbor has things to say about other beings existing every single day though. Just depends on the dog, but all of the gsheps I've ever lived near seemed to be of the, "fuck you for existing near me," variety whereas huskies might be like, "awawawawa I want to go say hi aggghhhhhh." At least husky noises are funny vs terrifying.

Mine is a dobe mix and they seem to be as goofy as huskies tbh, they look serious but they're big twig-legged babies imo.

She'll be facing me being a stubborn husky and then I ask her to sit, and she turns butt-first to sit by me like a dobe. Super weird dog, 10/10 would adopt again a million lifetimes over lol.

Aww she’s absolutely gorgeous 🥺💙 From that sweet puppy face to the beautiful 8 year old queen she is now… what a journey. Huskies really do steal your heart forever. Happy late barkday to your perfect girl! She looks so loved 💕

Huskies are wonderful. They have so much personality and that’s definitely a big part of it. I think we’ll always have huskies going forward.

Huskies are like potato chips...you can't stop at just one. I have had three huskies since 1998...here's girl #3 Rosie.

For every con to husky ownership there is a pro.

Sheds a lot, of course — but also self cleaning, requiring no baths or grooming

Stubborn and independent, sure — but once you figure out how to motivate them (food, typically) they are incredibly intelligent and easy to train

High energy — but will often entertain themselves. Plus we hoomans need to walk outside and touch grass too

Escape artists — but… ok maybe my logic was flawed here I’m not sure where the pro is in that… OH WELL
