Is It Advisable For A First Time Dog Owner To Get A Siberian Husky by Gentlewarrior1(m): 4:41am On Jun 26, 2019
So i have never had a dog before but i intend to get one by december.

I am considering getting a husky because i am quite fascinated by the dog. And among the dogs i have researched on; it seems to be my favorite.

From its looks, intelligence and strength.


What do you guys think or what would you advise a first time owner in regards getting a husky or which other breed will you recommend

What i seek the most is a smart dog that i can groom well and one which wouldn't attack people for no reason

As long as you have the space for a dog of that size, go for it. They're great pets, but don't expect it to be much of a guard dog. At least in my experience.

Thanks bro

Guard dog is not my main priority if not i would most likely go for a rott; although i don't like it.

What i seek is a personal pet that is smart and calm. But also alert and tough if need be maybe when it senses intruder in the night or something like that. But my number one purpose of getting a dog is to serve as a pet

Wow. I still need to do more research. Never thought about this full breed and naija breed stuff. I have never own a dog.


But please a budget of say 100k - 150k should be enough for the full breed

I don't know the cost but if you are going for an husky...they don't want heat so u can't cage them outside and be ready to spend money on vet and food

Haha... A full breed husky will cost you around 450k bro. This is not me guessing. My uncle has one and we went to buy it together.
Though some are cheaper but still won't come as low as 150k. The least you'll get is 300k.
As for your question, as long as you have a compound and can handle the cost of feeding an high breed dog, go for it, they are adorable and very friendly too.
