Experiences with huskies

You can experience a lot with sled dogs, whether it's sporty or just relaxing. In winter, you naturally think of sleigh rides first, but you can also do exciting things with the dogs when there is no snow or even in summer. A carriage ride through the forest, a ride on a scooter or simply a walk can be very nice for both dog and owner. After all, the animals want to be exercised in the warmer seasons too and they enjoy that. Pulling sports (pulling in a team) should only be done with the dogs when the temperature is below 15 degrees, because then it gets too warm for the dogs. With a well-trained husky, you can also go on exciting mountain tours in summer. However, you should also be fit enough yourself, because going on challenging hikes with a dog that is willing to work can quickly become quite exhausting. But there are also huskies that don't like pulling, i.e. are rather lazy. With a dog like that, you can of course also go for a very relaxed walk. In summer, however, you must always remember that dogs do not sweat and can therefore overheat, which can be very dangerous for them. That is why it is very important to keep a close eye on your four-legged companion and always have enough water for him.
