The Husky Lady in Waiting Fluttered Her Fan in Pale Blue Silk
Pale blue eyes, a black mask and soft grey and white fur make this Siberian Husky an elegant lady of the court. She wears a pale silk gown with lace trim at the sleeves, a pale blue ribbon sash across the chest and a delicate lace collar around the neck. One white paw holds a folded fan with gentle painted flowers. The background is dark and moody, with soft green drapes. Lady Aurora looks calm and polite, the way a Husky does just before she tells the whole room what she thinks of the dinner schedule.
Siberian Huskies were bred by the Chukchi people to pull light sleds over long distances, and they are built for stamina and cold weather. They are friendly, social and talkative, often howling and chatting. They need a lot of daily exercise, and a bored Husky can dig, chew or escape, so secure fencing and plenty of activity are key. Their thick double coat sheds heavily, and brushing helps. They overheat more easily than many dogs, so keep them cool in warm weather and ask your vet about safe exercise. Many Huskies love cold days and a good roll in the snow.
The fan is the picture of refinement, and the silk the picture of gentility. Under it all, there is a little sled dog's heart that would love a good run.
