Siberian Husky

Siberian huskies are classic northern dogs, originated in Northeast Asia as a sled dog. He will tempt you with his playful demeanor and eager attitude. He's ready to try anything that involves movement and satisfies his curious mind. They are intelligent but somewhat independent and stubborn. These are dogs bred to run, and their love of running may overcome their love for their guardians at times.

Outgoing and friendly, a Siberian greets anyone who comes to the door with a sniff and maybe a head bump, sweeping the floor with his wagging tail. He's a wonderful host-which means he's not remotely interested in keeping anyone away, so scratch "guard dog" off your list.
