Huskies are sled dogs, and for hundreds of years they have been trained as working dogs to pull sleds. Therefore, they are energetic, physically fit, and able to carry heavy loads and pull things, but their intelligence does not need to be very high, and they do not need to be able to perform many complex skills. They just need to be able to run forward when they hear a command or are hit with a whip.
This characteristic, being treated as a city pet, is actually not very suitable. First of all, it is difficult to meet the exercise requirements of his abundant energy. In order to release his energy, his average intelligence can only cause mischief.
Many sled dogs have low intelligence, including the Samoyed, which is said to be unruly as well. They often cause mischief at home and mess up furniture, but the extent of Samoyed’s mischief is not as bad as that of the Siberian Husky, and the Siberian Husky’s face is just too ridiculous, so the Siberian Husky’s stupidity is more widely known.
Among today’s pet dogs, those that were hunting dogs or herding dogs hundreds of years ago tend to have higher intelligence and know their owner’s preferences. They know when to be quiet and restrained, when to play wildly, and what to do and what not to do. For example, Lassie was a hunting dog, and the Great Dane was also a hunting dog. The German Shepherd, a common breed of police dogs, is also a herding dog.
