Husky dogs are long haired dogs that are less than optimal in ultra hot areas such as Arizona, where the heat can be a burden to them.

Due to this, temperate or colder climates are going to be fantastic for a Husky, and make your dog companion very happy. Huskies are lively, talkative, intelligent dogs with a hankering for play time. The Husky lifespan is generally 12-15 years, and these large dogs grow to be 20-27 kg for males and between 16-23 kg for females.
