{"product_id":"9781118053669","title":"Siberian Huskies For Dummies","description":"Bred for loyalty, strength and endurance, the easy-going and sociable Siberian Husky is a very pure and ancient breed, dating back 4,000 years or more. First bred by the Chukchis, a semi-nomadic people of northeastern Siberia, to hunt reindeer and pull sleds, the Siberian is an active breed that loves the outdoors. Prized for their great beauty, intelligence, wonderful way with children and lack of “dog smell,” they are also more free-spirited (and free-ranging) than many other popular breeds, and have a reputation for stubbornness and relentlessness in pursuit of a goal. \u003cp\u003eIs this breed right for you and your family? \u003ci\u003eSiberian Huskies\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eFor Dummies\u003c\/i\u003e answers this and all your questions about getting, caring for and living with a Husky.
