What are the Best and Worst Things About Siberian Huskies

[@Playingwith3D]

yup, Totally agree about the hair. My husky shed enough hair every day to knit a new dog.

[@sofia-ei3re]

Haha :p

[@karencash39]

Playingwith3D lol

[@daveb9370]

THE HAIR! We deal with it constantly, but owning huskies is the best experience in the world. They are so loving and the personalities are special. My first husky saved my life only a few weeks after I rescued him. He is my bestest buddy and my hero. God, I miss him every day. R.I.P. MAX. They are one of the oldest breeds and they are very loyal and friendly. Rescue a Husky today- you wont regret it! Peace.

[@Maltos1987]

Ours is named Max as well.

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

Good idea!

[@1patrat]

You are spot on when it comes to their personalities and being a loving breed. I have 4 huskies and each one has such a different personality from the other. After having huskies you would never want any other breed,they are the most loving dog I've ever seen or owned. Your huskies are very beautiful.

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

We had that Lab when we lived in a one bedroom apartment. . with no yard. . . And no, our huskies are pretty darn crazy when they don't get their exercise!

[@katyjackson1021]

I also love animals,and I want to thank you soooo much for making these "treasures" so happy,protecting,loving,and helping them so much.I'm so thankful and proud of people like you who are making a big difference in these doggies' lives.I truly hope there will be more people like you,and I myself am always helping and loving animals(not just dogs) as much as possible.I was so happy and touched by watching how you treated your "treasures" that the tears were coming out of my eyes.Thank you so much and I wish you and your doggies the very best.

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

Thank you so much!

[@iluvmy2intn]

Just found you on KZbin. We have an 11-month-old husky (our first). We got her when she was 8 weeks old and it has been a wild-and-crazy ride. We went from our beloved, 15-year-old Westie to the crazy-funny Husky, Minka. What can I say? She is absolutely amazing. Yes, she "pinches" us and digs huge holes in our yard, licks like crazy and chases our cat all over the house, but I wouldn't trade her for anything. I'm with you...the only negative is the hair-we use a Furminator to brush her out.

[@maryrose4182]

When I was -very- young, we had a husky named Xena. During a period, in which, we were doing some repairs at our house we had to put her in a leash for one month. She somehow got out of it, went to the neighbours house and killed all his 25 chicken. My dad gave her away to someone that wanted her. I have a repressed feeling for that and I want to get one cause... I don't know... that howling of hers (that I used to hear at night from my bedroom) is vividely imprinted in my head!

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

Oh i bet

[@Earthlinked]

Huskies howl as a form of "calling the pack"!!! This is simply how they get their pack together - usually at night - and if you have a Husky - you are part of their pack!!!!!

[@maryrose4182]

Oh I didn't know that! It is SO cool! Thanks for the info!

[@tripods66]

I live in Norcal with real wolves on 14 acres. I her the howls everyday as they get off my damn bed.

[@mekohusky6360]

My black lab left us yesterday, i just wanted to say, your babies are so sweet, watching this helped take away a lot of the pain, thank you so much for posting this.

[@jeremyj.5687]

Oakley is such an itty bitty little big tank, it´s so cute. Love it when dogs are a bit burly.

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

They sure do!

[@theHuskyCrew]

I find it funny that each of your dogs have a different way of getting your attention. My husky pinches, licks, pokes, and paws. She's very manipulative too.

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

+Beth They sure are!

[@2410jrod]

Mine claws but Bo has the funniest stories ever. I think that's the best part of huskies. You always have an adventure

[@ybbrach]

+Gone to the Snow Dogs Can huskys live in warm climats, and what if u have cats then u might get a husky . im begging my dad for a husky!

[@2410jrod]

Amy White make sure your ready for it, Gone to the Snow Dogs and I and a lot of owners of huskies will tell you, they are a lot of work and they will require a lot of attention. I would say do some research on them and ask owners first.

[@theHuskyCrew]

Amy White A word of caution. If you have never had a dog before, don't get a husky. If you don't have a fenced in yard, don't get a husky. If you are gone for more than 8 hours a day, have small animals, don't want to brush your dog 3 times a week, haven't done months of research, have never been around huskies before, and don't have the patience to spend 5x more time training than you would with an average dog, then don't get a husky! For a first time or inexperienced dog owner, I recommend a Golden.

[@carolmcauliffee5802]

havent watch u for awhile still love watching u

[@quantummath]

you're a kind girl I can tell ... and by the way, those Huskies are just Loooovely!

[@saintgeezus]

I love both your videos and your dogs :D

[@kylekok4150]

Can't wait to get my own husky :)

[@Nitalla_Creates]

Shelby is one of the most prettiest huskies I have seen, amazing colour and texture of her fur and that her eyes are such an amazing blue!

[@IcyPlayzOfficial]

I don't know if you will ever read this but. I WANT TO SAY that you are by far one of my favorite youtubers. When your doing your vlogs, you say so many awesome things and legit facts to back it up. Because of you, I am inspired to adopt a husky myself! I will shortly be doing everything you did to have the amazing dogs that you have thanks! Subbed and liked!

[@sunflower9481]

our husky calmed down after we adopted another husky and kept one of their puppies; he isnt naughty out of boredom anymore (doesnt chew on everything) and can play with the others and therefore uses up some energy... also having fellow dogs around can teach puppies the limits of biting...

[@AwayToMeBus]

Great video and I agree with the pros & cons (the HAIR ugh!). I would also add their ability to find any hole in a fence to escape. They also like life on their terms. You might think you're training them, they're usually training YOU :). This is probably why you don't see a ton of them doing agility, been there, tried that lol. I also have Border collies, both great breeds but they are totally different personality wise!

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

Cool

[@caitlinrudalavage6691]

SO BLESSED Y HAVE 3 HUSKIES THEIR MY FAVE

[@stevendemoniac]

Absolutely gorgeous pups, and very well behaved, mine is part wolf, but definitely behaves more like a husky (thank goodness). Gotta love their happy attitudes, Puts everyone in a good mood.

[@AirFire18]

Thank you!!!, I know i will have a siberian husky when i get my own place. I can't wait. I am ready to be a parent :D .... for a doggy ^-^

[@kittykitteh3747]

You're dog names are so cool and original!

[@andreaschminkey5128]

Thank you so much for reinterating facts about breeding and how many dogs are left homeless in shelters to be put to sleep only be cause their time runs out, not because they are bad dogs!!

[@DesignbyJandJ]

Hey don't show my dirt!!! hehe "I clean my house every other day… this is the other day" Where is that sign... I love the Roomba commercial on the side... how fitting. :)

[@andrewtrask9650]

Anyones else husky jump from couch to couch like a crack head after coming in from outside then fall asleep almost instantly

[@AnimeGoddess1000]

love the girls, love you and Jamie and LOVE the ending song haha I have to sing to it all of the time. You should make a lyric video to go with the song so all of your long-term fans can sing to it haha.

[@kiwi5133]

I just found this vid and you have a new subscriber. And when I saw your P.O. box address my jaw dropped cuz I didn't know there were youtubers from Michigan!!!!!

[@synfinity]

out of all your dogs i love shelby the best then shiloh and then oakly. shelby i have noticed is so face expressive and the most out going. shiloh is the prettest in my opinion and oakly is so laid back all awesome dogs you got and love them all:) they are very pretty:) love them:)

[@Bellsell77]

Man, having a husky would be a dream come true for me. I always stop husky owners so i can pat them. All your dogs are so beautiful. One day when i have a place of my own and im settled down a bit i will definatley get one :) Ive loved them since i was very young. Used to have a stuffed husky called Josh that I took everywhere with me.

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

Never give up on that dream!

[@Aquaria]

A friend of mine used to travel a lot for business, so I'd take care of her Husky when she was out of town. It's an understatement to say they shed. It's more appropriate to call them the ultimate fur-making machines. Every single day when I'd brush her dog (outside!), I'd have fur up to my ankles, all around me. I adore Huskies, especially how smart and loving they are. But I hate hate hate their fur.

[@lb5139]

My husky Nova is a gem, even though yes quite a lot of maintenance and basically, i'm husky whipped! :)

[@firephoenix1015]

Your dogs are absolutely lovely! :)

[@aqslke]

very nice video, love it (even if i'm not a real husky fan) you are great :)

[@bassetbaby67]

I had a husky years ago named Shasta. He was the best dog I ever had and I miss him so much

[@dracoangelrojo]

Ahahahahhaa, I LOVE how Oakley seems to be smiling at 5:04 right after the "Such a wet licks, Oakley!", she's practically snickering at your cute complaining, sweet fluffy Oakley girl

[@chris1083]

lol at 5:21 she was like... "That's my move, don't take my move."

[@WhiltiernaAria]

My bunny sheds all year, small clumps with 2 blown coats a year, not really comparative with 3 huskies, but I'm getting in the habit to weekly vacuuming and learning to aim the fans so fur doesn't get everywhere....when we get a house we're expanding the pack. ;)

[@glasepsilon]

Alright thank you for the reply. I have always loved huskies, and I think they are beautiful dogs, and hoping to get one soon :D

[@PeterDoornbos1981]

Worst parts are 1) Shedding hair (Never invite someone with black clothes), 2) Try to get them house broken. 3) Try teaching them not everything is a chewingtoy, I remember I get home my husky destroyed half my home and that look saying "Look at what I did! Aren't you proud of me?"

[@crabtrap]

no that look was "LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!", they will torture you if they don't get enough stimuili

[@DragonsOfSnow]

I've seen your videos here and there, but never really followed them. 1st, I just saw the "last video of Shiloh," which I am very sorry for your loss. She was definitely my favorite (although all of your dogs are beautiful!). Like I said, I haven't followed, so I don't know what led to her declining health, other than guessing it was old age. Second, I always wondered if you bred/bought. I'm so GLAD to hear that these girls are rescues! More people need to rescue and NOT BUY!

[@danieltinelli608]

"The Hair". I know this is old(er) but I love it. The hair. Stopping frame and looking at the bundles of dog hair all of the the floor. Yep! We sweep EVERY DAY!

[@liztharuler4057]

I cant get over Shelby's face like around 3:25 😂

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

heheheh

[@Nitalla_Creates]

I reckon that Shelby would of had such amazing puppies because her coat is absolutely stunning!

[@jernejatovsak6151]

Well, if your dog is hyperactive, especially when they're young: Get up, run and run and run and run... This is what helps. I remember when our husky/border collie mix was little this was the only thing that helped - at least 2 hour walks + a looooot of running.. We were lucky that we live on a country where there are fields and forests where she can run free :)

[@persephonemaeve2704]

Thankyou for the advice. I just bought a husky puppy. I tried so hard to rescue one but it was too difficult due to our pocket pets and cats.

[@chocolateandbooks]

That's so funny when you say they have the craziest personalities that Shelby goes to knock you down. Dogs are the best :)

[@XxKyKiske2007xX]

I like your dogs! They are so beautiful!

[@marietravers3814]

their beautiful i myself is getting Siberian Husky tomorrow looking forward to it 😃

[@joanbates9022]

Great advice about adopting,spay or neuter. If you go on Google plus,your heart would break,there are good stories of responsible people but a lot of un responsible people who are cruel and throw there dogs away without a thought! Sorry for preaching but it's true. Happy Mothers day Jesse to beautiful Siberian Huskies. JoanBates

[@tman6117]

1:27 those eyes

[@nickb4245]

I can watch your dogs all day :)

[@Khurzan72]

I breed huskies, and every husky finds a home. The 1 out of 10 is a bit exaggerated. Side note, love your huskies. Reminds me somewhat of my 3 :)

[@carolmcauliffee5802]

yes very loving huskies the best because i know i have a beaufull one❤

[@michaelbaez9133]

Wow, the 1 out of 10 thing is really sad... I just adopted 2 huskies Zasha and Mia. They were bought at 4 weeks old... saddly their owner couldn't handle them(serves him right). They are now 6 weeks, they are now a healthy weight and really active and playful, Zasha is really handsome and very smart, and MIA has endless energy. I'm not a puppy fan but they stole my heart.

[@MsBojaa]

my fav type of dogs are golden retrivers and huskys they are absolutely the most adorable creatures in the world and i wish i could have em both.. a few days ago i was car traveling for 20 minutes and the people i was traveling with had a husky in the back of the car the first thing that i noticed was that she was young, very soft fur that i didn't know they had and she had a blue and a brown eye and it way wayyy cute ^^in three words I LOVE HUSKYS

[@Draknar]

i have a 3 month husky and my sister is 7 so they should be fine, you just have to make sure like all dogs that your stern with them and they know your the boss as well as getting them through the teething stage. There pack dogs so as long as you treat them right and assert yourself correctly they will be great and super friendly.

[@MechaAkuma]

I feel that this video doesn't respond the serious issue about the bad parts of owning a husky. As a former husky owner, shredding is the *LEAST* of the problems when considering getting a husky. I'd like to see a video with a serious discussion about the serious negative aspects of owning a husky. I feel that while you are being light hearted with your answer you are giving people the impression that huskys are easy dogs when in fact they are *not*. Huskys are REAL dog of a dog. They will NOT back down if challenged. They have high hunting instincts that must be surpressed and worked with. They cannot walk freely without a leash unless years of training is made. They are high maintenance dogs. They require a lot of both physical and mental stimuli - more so than other typical housedogs. Same-sex agression is not uncommon SPECIALLY amongst males. They can be incredibly stubborn. Highly intelligent dogs that WILL come up with michiefs if bored. They cant be left alone for hours. Some of them will wreck your house if left alone for too long. Etc. Etc. Etc. This is NOT a breed for beginners! I'd be interested if you made a serious discussion video talking about these issues with more serious topics so that people seriously learn the responsibility huskys require. Love your content but these real problems should be adressed in my opinion.

[@ilariaorlando6036]

MechaAkuma She adressed them many times in the past. Also not only husky's are high maintenance dogs. I hate it when people say "Oh nice dog, but they're so hight maintenance", dude almost every big dog breed is energetic and needs attention and alot of activity. Have you ever seen a border collie? They rip your house apart when they're bored, they herd your children when you don't raise them right, and they need a lot of brain stimiulation. Stop talking about husky's like they're the only high energy/high maintenance breed in the world. Getting ANY dog breed should be a well researched and discussed decision. Also, not being a breed for beginners, that a load of crap. Not being a dog for people who didn't research the breed, yes, but that counts for a lot of breeds in my opinion. I've seen alot of other breeds being mistreated because the owners thought "oh what a cute dog" without thinking it through or researching what kind of breed it was and what kind of needs it had.

[@crabtrap]

@@ilariaorlando6036 I have owned both....and if you think a border collie raises to the level of bored mischievousness of a same aged Husky....you sir are NUTS!

[@crabtrap]

everything Mechaakuma just wrote is 110% TRUE! i have raised 3 generations and they WILL punish you for lack of exercise, and "exercise" doesn't mean a walk around the block once a day. Its means a several mile bike RUN at least a few times a week with 3 mile walks in between

[@TastyGravy1]

Absolutely gorgeous animals. You are very lucky!

[@lollipopciel]

our puppy is a husky/german mix..shes 3 moths old and she loves everybody

[@cwolter7887]

We have an "Isabella" white Siberian, and I agree that they are the most loving, funny and surprising breed of dog. Alakai does the licking thing for attention, and the pinching thing, but the funniest attention seeking tool of hers, is she will grab my hubby's jeans by the ankle, and pull and pull and pull. She has done this since 10 weeks of age, I dont think she will ever grow out of it. Thanks for posting :)

[@tudoriusmaximus]

Shelby is my favourite!

[@mutoneon]

My husky was such a gentleman. He never barked, he would just put his paw on your leg to be let outside. His favorite food was a loaf of rock solid stale bread, which he would carry around with pride for a few hours before eventually burying it in the backyard. His preferred activity was running, so we would ride a bicycle behind him with the leash in one hand. Squirrels meant hazard for the rider, but it was worth it because he loved it so much. The cancer began in his paw. He was Zipper.

[@pcvids2850]

i have a Husky German Shepherd Mix i love him:)

[@ThisInsurrection]

I'm getting a Siberian Husky out of a shelter soon who was abandoned by his owners. I've always wanted a husky my entire life. adoptapet informed me that he was at risk for euthanization, so i email spammed the shelter and they promised to take him off the list until i can return from out of state to go meet him this weekend. I'm so excited! He was only referred to by his code, so i have already given him a name for the shelter to know him by. His name is Azzuen

[@ProffesorAw3some]

its funny at 5:35 she says " we dont need no puppies" and shelby winks. HA PRICELESS

[@care4uqueen]

Hi. How long have you had your dogs for? They're so lovely and friendly! I'd love to adopt a Husky one day, but my main fear is the bite. Do they ever bite? And how hard could they bite?

[@deidradupuis]

I soo understand the hair issue. Grew up we had a pure white husky. Needless to say black clothes did not stay so.

what kind of meaty treats would u recommend to use to train a 6 month old Sibe ? i have given her Science Diet Ideal Balance soft and chewy training treats before and she likes them but they seem like a tease to me since they are so small

[@robertkrug6824]

we got our rescue husky "nikko" 3 weeks ago. we did not pay a re-homing fee. we spent $150 bringing his shots and licensing up to date. he is 5 yo. and he is never left alone.He replaced our last rescue when he died at age 14. He was a white german shepherd wolf hybrid.

[@anthelios77]

You could get a Furminator (Google it) to remove loose fur from the under coat. It works wonders, but you have to to it once in a while.

[@SuperMillhill]

Shelby was my favorite ❤

[@GoneToTheSnowDogs]

We d that too

[@JJKnapich]

I noticed u have a gate. I was thinking of getting one but it almost seem like it won't stop a husky from jumping it if they want to get on the other side.. Have you run into a problem with your dogs jumping the indoor gate to the kitchen or there actually good about it?

[@Xaocka]

so positive!

[@71Macola]

It's called 'agouti'. Each hair is striped with different colors, and they blend in really interesting ways. Agouti can come in blends of any colors!

[@JosephW99]

We have a Boxer now and are considering buying a Sibe. I have researched the net all day for answers to all of my questions and I am starting to get a bit turned off from what I'm reading. The prey drive, digging, and escaping the yard seem to be my biggest worries. The hair can be delt with. Draining the energy out of this breed...daily may also be too challenging for us. It's seems to me that a Sibe needs constant cognitive training or they will easily become bored and then who knows what will

[@BySixa]

OMG! 5:36 she winked at you! soo cute

[@jasonsmith1738]

I love husky i always wanted one. And everytime i see you guys i love you more and more. And two of my bigst wishs are meat shelby and mempish and baby Kara. And i also would be a dream come true to get a sweat shrit with the dogs on it

[@heartmaster1234]

Spaying or neutering dogs helps before behavioral mannerisms have set in, that means don't leave it until you have a problem. If your dog is not for breeding, get it to the vet early. This is also important for frenchies and terriers.

[@DragonsOfSnow]

Oh one other thing I forgot to mention...you talked about the lab that you had before your huskies and how active it was...a little more than you could handle. I always figured huskies matched a labs active nature, if not more so. I've always loved this breed, but the only dog that I ever had close to a pure husky was a gorgeous all white Husky/Shepard mix. She was EXTREMELY hyper/active and a great escape artist. Do you find your dogs more mellow than most Huskies?

[@evelynluna1286]

Love your video and they helped me out. Question: I have a 10 month old female S.Husky. When will she become calm and behave like your Huskies. :"( Even on the days I take her to the dog park ( 1-2 hours ) and then run her 2-3 miles. She is STILL hyper at nights when I am trying to relax. Any tips will help. Thanks.

[@MrsMelyHumphrey]

THANK YOU!!! for your views on breeding. I am pro rescuing as well. Doesn't matter the bred. I have a wonderful husky/german shepherd mix and a beagle mix. I would rather go to the pound and adopt a dog or cat. If fact the husky/german shepard mix was supposed to be my step son's dog, until I took her and had her spade. There are too many unwanted animals in this world!!!

[@Dynamic_Dynamo91]

I have a husky and when you said the worst part, in my head I said "the hair" and then you said, "the hair" and I laughed. IT'S EVERYWHERE NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO. Wouldn't trade my girl for anything though :)

[@sophiebresnahan7509]

My family had a chocolate lab. But like you we had to give him away. He was veeerrryyy hyper, when he got excited he would just pee and he was too much. We had next to no back yard and when my mum got pregnant that have him even LESS room! But he lives in this massive house with a big field now so I'm happy about that :-P

[@DJTEVAdotCOM]
