Q: What is the Nature of a Samoyed Husky Mix? My sister just got an 8 week old Samoyed Husky Mix. I was wondering what the general nature of these dogs was. My sister has three kids ranging from 1-7 years old. Are they kid-friendly? Do they enjoy the snow? Answer by Peggy The Samoyed and Husky mix is a popular crossbreed because it retains some of the appearances of both breeds. It also accepts attention from strangers better than some other dog types do. Photo Credit: steve.garner32/Flickr CC Answers and Views: Answer by nat As the owner of the pictured dogs, they are both great with kids but Huskies are hard work, they love to run and run and run and ESCAPE. They are escape artists, very independent, clever, push boundaries, inquisitive, like to dig, like to wander and most have high prey drives and would see if it benefits them to follow orders... Samoyeds are a little easier, slightly better for families, although they have a lot of similar behaviors they are not as hard as a Husky. They also shed, A LOT, you need to keep up with grooming their beautiful double coats. We live in subtropical temps and with caution can live in all climates, especially with the air con. Exercise for us is mostly Winter due to this. They love kids and great family dogs with great temperaments but like all dogs should never be left alone with kids. Huskies and Samoyed are both working dogs, so they need a lot of exercise, but both love to be with their owners, they are not really yard dogs, they are family dogs. You do need good strong, solid high fences. My husky does bark and howl and shriek LO she copies our Sammy. Answer by Louis I love both Huskies and Samoyeds, but after getting my Husky Samoyed mix, I will never get a purebred of either breed again, only mixes! My dog is the absolute perfect mix of both breeds. Just as beautiful as a purebred Husky or Samoyed except much calmer. He doesn't bark like Samoyeds do thanks to the Husky side and he is much calmer around the house thanks to the Samoyed side. He's just as playful and loving as both breeds but much easier to train and much more well-behaved than any purebred Husky or Samoyed I've ever met. Answer by Vicky L Both dogs are from the "spitz" species of canine which means that they thrive in cooler weather, but will survive in a climate such as the Midwest — I would not suggest them for the Southern states or the desert Southwest, however. Husky's like to dig and both breeds like to run. Be sure to keep it on a leash when walking it and a fenced yard is a MUST. Both breeds are very kid-friendly and generally not aggressive. Should be an excellent family pet! Answer by A.Dough This crossbreed has three variations: 25% samoyed, 75% husky; 50% samoyed, 50% husky; and 75% samoyed, 25% husky. Their temperament varies depending on the exact proportions of each breed in the mix. RUMBLE VIDEO: Samoyed/Husky is playing with a Beagle Answer by Rob It is not easy to find the exact temperament of this mix but they are known to be very intelligent and they need constant mental stimulation. Huskies are energetic, but they calm down considerably after about 2 years old—this does not seem to happen with the Sami who will remain highly active for his whole life, which may not suit every home's lifestyle. Answer by Rob The mixed breed of a husky and a samoyed is known for its friendly personality. This is the perfect mix if you want a pup with a social personality, that loves children and can keep up with an active lifestyle. It will have a silky coat that is sometimes white with patches of black or brown. They shed and they do need to be groomed regularly due to their double coat. They are intelligent, gentle, sociable dogs who are excellent with kids. However, they are also prone to be overweight due to their high metabolism so watch your dog's diet carefully! Answer by nessa Hi! I have had a Siberian Husky (my baby, who recently passed at 14 1/2 … I miss him so much). I recently adopted an all-white Husky/Samoyed mix who is absolutely beautiful and loving as well (just as Joell said above). From my experience, both of these breeds are very similar and are wonderful with kids. I will confirm that they do love to run and explore, and anytime either of mine has gotten away I've had to go searching because I agree that they will never come back. Either they will get too far and just keep exploring, or someone will take them because they are so beautiful. The microchip is the way to go! East or West Siberian Laika vs Siberian Husky? What is a labrador-samoyed mix like? Will Siberian Husky protect you from an attacker? Anyway, going back to your original question… their nature is wonderful. They are very sweet and loving – I know both of mine adore children. They may attack them, … but with kisses :) My husky always loved to sniff babies, and would gently lick the baby's toes if they were within reach. My sister's Husky would circle my niece's crib as a baby during thunderstorms because she was so worried about her…. Although for the most part they are not guard dogs. I only remember a few occasions when my dog was ever "not friendly" to someone. Usually, all he did then was turn his back to them or ignore them, rather than bark or growl. Once when someone uninvited came into my house, however, he did bark and growl and would not let that person much past the front door. In my opinion, with most dogs, especially smart dogs like Huskies & Samoyeds or a mix of the two, if you treat them with love and respect, you will get that love and respect back in multiples. They are one of the biggest joys of my life. No joke. Good luck! and I wouldn't worry about the safety of the children if that's what your original concern was. They are gentle, loving dogs who love kids and love to play. Answer by mrlucky both samoyed and husky are runners super friendly and kid-safe but loyal only to the call of the wild if she doesn't have the land for it to roam it will likely disappear (sorry to say - but my family lost two when I was young) Answer by Lyle Jones Can’t wait to get my samoyed husky mix I will love him unconditionally!
