All about Siberian Huskies Trivia Quiz

Answer: False

The Siberian Husky is extremely gregarious, and will greet an intruder with the same love and affection as any other visitor to your home! On top of that, they do not bark very often either. The only thing that may put an intruder off is their size and wolf-like appearance.

Answer: Sledding

Huskies are one of the best known sledding dogs, others are Alaskan Malamutes, Samoyeds, and Eskimo Dogs. Although Huskies are only a medium sized dog, they are very strong, and able to pull sleds over long distances.

Answer: Stubborn and easily bored

Obviously there are exceptions in all breeds, but in the main, the Husky's stubborn streak means that it is unlikely to do well in obedience trials, and all training must be geared towards keeping the Siberian's quick-to-wander attention.

Answer: True

Many Siberian Huskies cannot be let off their leads unless in an enclosed space. They are very independent dogs and do most things (including coming back to you) on their own terms.

Answer: True

Siberian Huskies are very clean dogs, requiring little grooming or bathing, except during shedding times, when they will fill your home with more hair than you thought possible!

Answer: up

Siberian Huskies ears stand up like those of a cat.

Answer: Spitz

Answer: All of these

Siberian Huskies are often known to raid bins and kitchen work surfaces. They are great escape artists and will not only jump over fences, but also dig under them. Huskies also have a strong hunting instinct and have been known to kill rabbits, squirrels and even cats (though most will live with a cat if introduced at an early age).

Answer: Howling rather than barking

Because they look more 'wolfy' (and are sometimes used to portray wolves in films) it is a common misconception that they are more closely related to the wolf than any other dog. Huskies often howl rather than bark and that reminds the people around them of the ancestor they share with all dogs, the wolf.
