Lifesaving Dog
Siberian Huskies thrive in freezing subzero Arctic climates thanks to their weatherproof triple coat and resilience.
Built For Cold

Compact Paws
Black and white coats camouflage well in snowy environments while allowing people to differentiate them from wolves.
Snow-Hued Coats
Icy blue and brown multifaceted Husky eyes absorb sunlight well preventing snow blindness outside for longer trips.
Blue Eyes
Genetic testing links Siberian Huskies directly to ancient breeds surviving over 9,000 years ago in frigid Siberia.
