get a full blooded female husky from a reputable breeder. their avg weight is around 45 lbs. males avg weight is usually around 60ish which is far from REALLY big. you might be thinking of a malamute and yes... those get quite large. huskies are amazing dogs. very loyal, protective, but still good with people. i had one for 15 years. i will have another one.Originally Posted by Maverick
