There’s a chance that your husky might demand to sleep next to you. Whenever you’re working, they might paw at you just to tell you they need love and attention.
Understanding their temperament: What do huskies love the most?
Siberian husky is an independent breed. They might look sharp, intriguing, and wolf-like, but they have some really adorable personality traits.
Let’s reveal the best parts about their personality that’ll help you bond with them:
1.) They’re a ball of energy – Although huskies are big in size (the adults), they love to run around and play.
You can’t really find a bored or dull husky because they are always brimming with energy. Play fetch, take them for a swim or even head to a place where it snows. They can be great travel buddies too.
2.) Huskies are great family dogs – Families will love having a husky by their side. They get along with kids and adults. It’s easy for a husky to gel with other dogs as well.
If you have an energetic kid in the house, having a husky will make your life easier. Let them prance around all over the place like clowns!
3.) Huskies are attention-seeking and adorable – You can’t have enough of a husky! Huskies demand attention, paw at you, and might follow you everywhere.
It’s adorable because they’re the perfect dog. Wouldn’t it be dull and boring if your husky sat in a corner and didn’t interact with you?
The whole idea of bringing a husky home is because they bring joy into your life. Their goofiness and attention-seeking behavior – everything is adorable about them.
4.) They’re super smart – Alright! Huskies are really smart. As you move forward, we will share videos of huskies talking to their pet parents.
That’s right! They’re used as sled dogs for a reason. Understanding commands is their forte and they protect their home fiercely. You will have a very loyal and alert dog once you bring a husky home.
This reminds us of the beautiful movie, Eight Below. Eight dogs are left behind in Antarctica. The movie has been shot beautifully, and you can see how well-trained the huskies are.
The movie is a reminder that huskies are survivors! They are protective, lovable, relentless, and great fighters. Throughout the movie, you get to see how they find food, fight with the giant leopard seals, and showcase their emotions towards each other.
They wait for their parents and don’t give up till the end. This shows that huskies are really smart, emotional, intelligent, and strong.
If your husky waits for you all day just to see you return from work, it’s a clear sign that you’ve finally been able to bond with your dog.
Are Siberian huskies affectionate – 6 Sure-Shot Signs that You Husky is in Love With You
Have you ever wondered why God created dogs? Did he do it for selfish reasons? Well, God’s not residing on this planet – YOU ARE!
It is believed that God first created human beings and then a week later, he looked down and decided to create other living beings like dogs.
God realized that human beings needed a companion. Of course, there’s the concept of soulmates, but there can’t be a better companion than a dog.
He didn’t create a different breed at that moment. To know more about the creation of dogs, read this quick post.
Let’s cut back to the chase and shed some light on the signs that tell you your husky loves you!
1.) Pawing your hands – If your husky loves you, they will hold your hand. It’s a heartwarming gesture and we’re sure you are going to cry like you’re cutting onions. In case your husky bites your hand (lovingly), don’t be astonished because it’s a way of showing affection.
2.) Keep a close watch on their eyebrows and ears – A husky’s ears and eyebrows are intriguing. Whenever your husky is happy around you, his/her expressions will reveal it vividly. The ears will be bent backward or they will raise their eyebrows a little when they’re really happy around you.
3.) Making eye contact – What do you do on dates or a romantic evening? You stare and look into each other’s eyes. Now, we’re talking about you and your romantic partner. People who don’t like you or are too afraid to talk to you will never make eye contact.
Huskies aren’t different! If you are special to them, they will make prolonged eye contact with you to tell you that they’re in love with you. This is also a sign that they’re comfortable and trust you completely.
4.) Attention-seeking and clingy behavior – If a husky loves you, they won’t let you go out of their sight for too long. They want you to be around and shower lots of love.
They will long for you and will follow you everywhere. Don’t get annoyed by this behavior – they’re just trying to tell you that they love you!
5.) Acting all goofy and relaxed – A husky won’t act foolish or goofy around strangers. They will stay alert and look at strangers with curious and judgmental eyes.
Now, if your huskies love you, they will act goofy, lay on their back, and make funny faces. This is their way of telling you, ‘HOOMAN, YOU ARE MINE. ONLY MINE.’
6.) Huskies will tell you they love you – We told you at the very beginning, we’re not kidding! Some of you may or may not believe this but huskies have said, ‘I love you’ to their humans.
Watch Mishka, the Husky saying, ‘I love you’ to her fuzzy pet parent in this video.
If your husky is even remotely in love with you, he/she will try to howl, ‘I love you’ all the time.
In short, despite being accused of being too loud, it’s just a way of showing their affection. If you don’t like loud affectionate dogs, we’d say, the husky isn’t the right breed for you.

Who knows, they might even carry the grocery bags for you, fun, isn’t it?
