THE GROOMING ABCs: SIBERIAN HUSKY EDITION

There used to be a time when Siberian Huskies were a rare sight in India; that’s not the case today. Nowadays, one can come across many Huskies across the nation, which is why the grooming of a Siberian Husky is now a topic that needs to be discussed. Grooming is an extremely important aspect of your Husky’s well-being, as their physical state infl uences the way they feel. Siberian Huskies as a breed have double coats, and have 2 seasonal coats: a heavy winter coat, and a lighter summer coat. During the winter, Huskies will have an incredibly thick and fl uffy coat, which helps them keep nice and toasty warm. The same thick coat also makes them vulnerable to overheating in hot weather. At least once a year, a Husky sheds its entire undercoat. The process takes up to 6 weeks from start to finish. Here are some grooming steps you should take to maintain your Husky’s health.
