Huskies are endurance athletes bred for Arctic sled work. They need more exercise than almost any other breed. Without it, they howl, dig, escape, and destroy furniture. If you're tracking a Husky's walks, prepare for big numbers.
2–3 walks or runs per day, plus free play
A tired Husky is a good Husky. They need long runs, not just walks. Avoid exercise in heat — they overheat easily with their thick double coat. Track distance goals, not just time.
2 meals per day
Surprisingly efficient eaters — they need less food per pound than most breeds. But they burn a lot of calories on active days. Log exercise alongside meals to calibrate portions.
2–3 times per week, daily during coat blow
The twice-yearly coat blow is legendary. You'll fill garbage bags with fur. Set grooming reminders to increase frequency during shedding seasons.
Recommended vet schedule: Annual exam, eye checks every 6 months
