Working and Exercising

Siberian Huskies were born to pull something 40 times their own body weight over long distances in temperatures that you wouldn't like. It's what they do - it's in their blood.Siberians can get bored very easily and then can become destructive. A great way to exercise both your dog and yourself is by trying Dog Scootering or Dog Sledding.

Dog Scooters are for 1 or 2 dogs and are great for the novice rider. They can be used in many places where a dry rig or sled cannot.

If you want the ultimate thrill with 6 - 8 dogs, then Dog Racing with Rig/Sled is for you.

Siberians are still used occasionally as sleddogs in dogsled racing but have been widely replaced by the more popular Alaskan Husky and hound-type crossbreds that are specially bred and selected for speed and have less heavy coats. Siberian Huskies were designed to pull a light load over long distances at a medium pace, and simply can't keep up with their faster counterparts. Siberians are still popular in races restricted to purebreds and are faster than other pure sleddog breeds such as the Samoyed and Alaskan Malamute. Today the breed tends to divide along lines of 'racing' Siberians versus 'show' Siberians.
