Chelsea is right. Dogs can become very much part of the family and bring great joy but it is a longterm commitment. You need to choose a breed that is going to suit your circumstances - and the rest of the household, who might not quite appreciate all the fur everywhere and their belongings being chewed up because the dog is bored. I would really suggest you pop along to visit QAWS and take some of their unwanted dogs for a walk. Or let the bigger ones take you for a walk! Its a great way for you to see some different breeds, and bring a little bit of excitement into their day too. QAWS do a great job taking in unwanted animals and are always grateful to have volunteers help them out.

There is a huge difference between reading about owning one and actually owning one. I've read lots about owning lions but there's no way I would be able to cope with owning one!!

Have you had experience with huskies before? Have you owned dogs before - especially breeds with under coats? As you are under 18 you wouldn't be able to adopt one anyway - it would have to be your parents and you haven't mentioned whether they are prepared for all the hassle that comes with a husky.

They can live 15 years - are you ready for that commitment? He/She will be quite expensive to move when you leave Qatar as they are big dogs. They can suffer major seperation anxiety so someone will need to be around for most of the day. It's not a dog you can leave at home whilst you all go out for the day.

It's a shame because you are obviously choosing a husky purely for it's looks and not for it's suitability.

We used to have one years ago too. Fur everywhere, headstrong and very difficult to manage. As your age is apparently "less than 18" you are not old enough to understand the obligations which come with responsible dog ownership - particularly with the needs of this breed.

It doesn't matter how much you have studied Siberian Huskies and how 'ready you are' to have one, they don't belong in this climate. Dogs of any breed are not toys. Ask your parents to buy you a playstation instead.

Huskies do badly in this heat, even with air-conditioning - take it from someone who owns them here!!

They shed a lot, all year round and when their winter coat is shedding you'll need to sweep your house twice a day!!

They can also be hard to train as they don't listen to what you say and they are very well known for running away so you can't let them off the lead when on a walk or leave the door open.

QAWS have had a lot of huskies in the past as people buy them as puppies and don't realise how hard they are to look after so when they reach about 10 months old and start to misbehave as they haven't had the right training - they abandon them.

Normally you find them in Siberia. That's where they belong. Hence the name: "Siberian Husky".
