The Siberian husky is a beautiful dog breed with a thick coat in multiple color variations. With their blue or brown eyes, they look very nice. Many people love the look of this wolf-a-like dog. We have Siberian husky puppies for sale.
History
The Siberian Husky is believed to have been developed by the Chukchi Indians, natives of the region now called Siberia, more than three thousand years ago.
Siberian Husky’s were first used as a sled dog and hunting dog to pull small loads in the extreme cold and harsh environment of Siberia.
The word “Siberia” is commonly associated with a very cold environment, however, the earliest Chukchi’s probably enjoyed a much milder climate than they do today. In those warmer times, they may have relied on dogs to assist them in hunting the plentiful reindeer. About 3,000 years ago the climate changed for the worse and the reindeer had to travel farther and farther to find food, the reindeer dependent Chukchi’s had to travel with them taking their entire households along. This added sled hauling to the list of the Siberian Huskies accomplishments.
Chukchis and their huskies
Chukchi’s respected their Siberian Huskies greatly and only the very young, old and sick people were allowed to ride in the sleds as passengers. The sleds were mostly used to haul goods, whilst the people walked. On occasion, the Chukchi women and children pulled the sleds alongside the dogs.
The Chukchi people were illiterate, they had a very complex culture. They developed a religion base on shamanistic healing and conceived of a heaven whose gates were guarded by a pair of Chukchi dogs. The Chukchi’s believed that anyone who mistreated a dog would not be allowed into heaven.
After a while, the Chukchi’s learned to domesticate reindeer, as a result, the Siberian Huskies were taught to herd deer instead of killing them. Siberian Huskies were bred for multiple purpose work such as hunting, herding and hauling light loads. Now that the Chukchi’s had domesticated their reindeer, they were used to pull the heaviest loads. Huskies were developed for their strength, endurance, and agility rather than brute strength.
Because of its isolation, the breed was kept very pure until the twentieth century, when Alaskans began importing the dogs to use for sled racing.
Although largely replaced in dog sledding by the more-competitive Alaskan husky, the Siberian husky continues to be used as a recreational sled dog and companion. It also served as a sled dog with the U.S. military during WW II.
The Siberian husky is also called arctic husky.
