Are Siberian huskies good with children?
The Siberian has a gentle and friendly disposition which may be a heritage from the past as the Chukchi people held their dogs in great esteem. They housed them in family shelters and encouraged their children to play with them. They are alert, eager to please and adaptable. The Siberian husky is not usually a one man dog, but are capable of showing strong affection for their family. The Siberian husky is not a guard dog, but may unwittingly act as a deterrent to those ignorant of his true hospitable nature, due to his intense personality and appearance. However, as with any dog, it is not a good idea to let puppies and children play unattended. Children and puppies tend to be unaware of their own size and strength and could accidentally injure each other. If you teach your child and new puppy how to behave around one another and you shouldnt have any problems.
