Huskita

Huskita History

The Huskita, or Huskie, is a mixed-breed Australian cattle dog. The Huskita is a mix between a German Shepherd and an Australian Cattle Dog. The Husky is a medium-sized working dog with a thick, double coat. The Huskies were originally bred by Siberian nomads, who needed a dog that could travel long distances over rough terrain and would be able to pull sleds loaded with supplies. The ancestors of the modern day Husky date back to 3000 BC. The modern day Husky is a domesticated version of the wild Alaskan Husky. The Alaskan Husky is believed to be a direct descendant of the Siberian husky, and was selectively bred by early fur traders in Alaska. The Alaskan sled dogs were crossed with European huskies to produce the modern American (Alaskan) husky. The Alaskan huskies are smaller in size than the Siberian huskies and are thought to have originated in the Canadian province of British Columbia.

Huskita Activity Requirements

The Huskita is a very rare, relatively new hybrid dog. It is the result of breeding a Husky with a Bull Mastiff. The level of activity your dog requires depends largely on their size. Larger Huskitas will need more exercise and mental stimulation than smaller dogs. The Husky and Bull Mastiff are both high-energy breeds, so a Huskita will not be content lounging around all day, however, they are not as demanding as other high-energy breeds. A daily walk, swim, or game will keep any Huskita happy, healthy, and well-behaved.
