Unfortunately, many people purchase Huskies solely for their beauty without considering their temperament and quirks. This has led to many dogs being lost, abandoned, or surrendered to shelters. Prospective owners should educate themselves about the breed and consider adoption or fostering before deciding to bring a Husky into their lives.
This high-energy breed can be destructive both indoors and out — especially when bored or not given adequate exercise. They will demolish a house if they are left alone and there has even been a case of a Siberian Husky chewing through a cement wall.
They will dig up flower gardens and yards alike, but they can be trained to dig in a specific spot in the yard. It is better for everyone if you merely teach your dog to dig in one spot instead of trying to break him of that habit. Nonetheless, they can be quite charming with their mischievous and playful nature.
