They were bred to perform as part of a pack; thus, sociability is in their blood. They are, first and foremost, very loving and gentle dogs, who give a lot of affection and love to receive it.

They’re good with children (though, of course, they should be supervised at all times) and friendly towards strangers. For this reason, I don’t recommend them if you want a guard dog, as they are likely to greet an intruder with a wag of the tail rather than a menacing bark.

Siberian Huskies shouldn’t be left alone for too long (no more than 3 or 4 hours), and they like to live with other dogs.
