Siberian Husky

Odin is a Siberian Husky!

Siberian Huskies originated in northeast Russia in the Chukchi area where it was used as a sled dog. Weighing around 50 pounds and standing about 22 – 25 inches tall, it still excels at this task and is well represented at the 408 mile All-Alaska race.

This is an adventurous, independent and fun-loving dog. It can be stubborn and mischievous too, although it has a high desire for human or other canine companions. Most of these dogs are intelligent and courageous.

This dog was bred to run for miles in the cold and needs a lot of exercise. It prefers cooler weather and can spend equal time indoors and out. The heavy coat will need frequent brushing for maintenance.

We are pleased to welcome Odin to our practice!
