Husky dogs are a mix between wild and domesticated dogs originating from northern regions. There are several breeds including Siberian, Greenland, and Sakhalin Huskies. They are energetic, athletic dogs with typically blue eyes and warm fur known for activities like dog sledding, skijoring, hiking and scootering. Huskies are genetically close to wolves and are known for howling, sometimes having two different colored eyes, and historically being important for transport in wilderness areas.
