The Siberian Husky is native to Siberia as their name suggests. The Chukchi people trained them for hundreds of years to pull sleds. The Chukchi were a semi-nomadic people who used the Siberian Huskies ability to pull sleds for long distances with light loads, which made the dog an excellent companion for them. Through recent DNA testing it has been found that the Siberian Husky is one of the oldest living breeds of dog. The Siberian Husky wasn't brought to the United States until 1909 when the breed took part in the All Alaska Sweepstakes Race. After their initial appearance a number of the dogs were imported to Alaska and the breed actually won the same race in the following year. In the years following, the Siberian Husky breed not only went on to win many different races but they also gained much fame for their great speed and endurance.

In 1930 the Siberian Husky was finally recognized as a breed by the American Kennel Club. The breed is still widely used in various sledding, carting and racing events. Because of the breed these activities have became increasingly popular. However, in many of today's races the Siberian Husky has been replaced by the Alaskan Husky which is specially bred for speed. As a result people have started a movement that creates races specifically for the Siberian Husky.

The newest role for the Siberian Husky is as a hiking companion, therapy dog and devoted house pet. People often confuse the Alaskan Malamute with the Siberian Husky. However, the Alaskan Malamute is a heavily built dog that was built for draft work and not speed. The Siberian Husky itself has a very unique appearance. A part of this is their double coat, which helps to keep them insulated in both hot and cold weather. They also typically have long tails that are used to protect their noses while sleeping.

Overall the full-grown male Siberian Husky will stand twenty-one to twenty-three and one half inches at their withers with the females being slightly smaller. For females their ideal weight ranges between thirty-five to fifty pounds depending on their size and the males can be up to ten pounds more in weight. The bone density and build of a Siberian Husky should be moderate and never slight or dense. In overall appearance the Siberian Husky is slightly longer than they are in height. The ideal Siberian Husky according to breed standards displays a picture of balance, grace and athletic ability. The eyes can be brown or blue and sometimes even one of each color or speckled. A white mask around their face often enhances their eye color.

The overall facial expression of the Siberian Husky is one of friendliness, alertness and even a rogue appearance. The Siberian Husky color can range from white to black but most are black or red with white markings or shaded gray. Rather than focus on color, the importance of a Siberian Husky is their ability to perform with speed, ease and stamina.
