People looking for pets today are interested in getting miniature versions of large dogs or extra large versions of large dogs. Miniature versions are in demand partially because they generally possess the same personality traits of the standard breeds with an element of being cute to seal the deal. One very popular choice is the mini husky. This smaller breed offers all the good parts of their larger cousins without being too big to live in apartments in the city.
There are two versions of this dog and although very much alike, they are considered separate breeds by breeders and kennel clubs. The first to appear was introduced by Linda Spurlin in the 1970s. She started working on her version when her female dog was accidentally impregnated by a smaller dog. As time passed she brought in smaller versions of Alaskan Huskies, Siberian Huskies and American Eskimo breeds to keep the puppies from losing the standard form of the breed. This dog is considered a mixed breed by kennel clubs.
In 1990 another breeder introduced a line of miniature huskies that was created by carefully selecting the parents by size and stature. Bree Normandin used only Siberian Huskies to create her line of dogs. The result was a much smaller copy of standard sized dogs with the endearing element of a shorter muzzle. This line is accepted by AKC as a member of the Siberian breed classed by size.
People who wish to adopt these dogs need to be aware of special needs that they have. They are a high energy dog and need to have a yard to run and play in. They also need to be walked daily to help prevent boredom. They have a thick coat that is moderately long and requires brushing and bathing on a regular basis. They shed heavily and even with regular grooming and can easily become matted.
They are happiest when they are allowed to stay in the house with their people. They are easily crate trained but should not spend long amounts of time them. They mix well with other pets and are family oriented towards children who treat them well. This dog does not do well as an outdoor pet. In warmer areas the heavy coat makes the heat intolerable and although cooler weather is better they adjust better when allowed to be inside the home.
Before you choose to adopt a specific puppy you should determine the quality of the care the breeder gives them. Go to the home and view the dogs as well as their living area. It needs to be clean and roomy so the puppies car able to run and play freely. Ask about shot records and health reports from the veterinarian. The breeder should show an interest in what type of home the dog is going to. He should ask questions about you and your household if he does not he may not care who gets the dogs or what kind of life they will have after they leave his care.
Many people look into rescue shelters before taking on a puppy. Rescue animals are generally adults and have been neutered before adoption. They may also be partially trained before they come home with you.
Miniature huskies are great companion animals. Their loyalty and dedication to their human is well known and they will be happy healthy companions for thirteen years or longer for most owners.
