I know a ton of you are dog owners. Any of you own a Husky? Any main stuff you feel I should know?

Yes, I can Google or watch Dogs 101 but all that stuff is contradicting. I'd like to hear from the owners directly.
My aunt used to raise Samoyed Huskies a long time ago. Beautiful dogs, and friendly, super-cuddly pups.

All I remember is that the male decided to tear his way out of the kennel and ended up killing a sheep and chickens before he was hunted down, and - the same night her mate ran away - the bitch killed all of her cubs. This might have more to do with my uncle being a dick than the breed itself, though.

One of the cubs I named "Teddy", as he was going to be mine when he hit eight weeks old. He never made it.

I don't know if Samoyeds are "special" (beyond being insanely beautiful), but I hear all Huskies can be a handful.

But they are, perhaps, the most beautiful - and primal - of dogs. Gorgeous creatures.
