GENERAL APPEARANCE

General Appearance : The Siberian Husky is a medium-sized working dog. Their height ranges between 21 to 23½ inches at the withers (measured from ground to base of neck) for males and 20 to 22 inches at the withers for females. Typically, Siberian Huskies weigh 45 to 60 pounds for males and 35 to 50 pounds for females. Often people envision these beautiful dogs as much larger than they are, but they were bred to be moderately compact in build.


Despite this, these agile dogs are not only quick and light on their feet, they are also exceptionally strong for their size. In action, these dogs move freely, effortlessly, and gracefully over practically any terrain. In fact, they will happily perform their original function in harness most capably, carrying a light load at a moderate speed over great distances.
