15 Husky Combinations to Melt Your Heart
The appearance of Husky mixes in social media feeds and on the streets is not shocking. Nobody can argue against the Husky's attractiveness—they have a wolf-like appearance, gorgeous fluffy coat, and breathtaking light blue eyes. Given how popular huskies have grown, it makes sense that people would begin to imagine all the cuteness that could result from breeding them with another breed.
However, genetics can show up in a variety of ways in mixed-breeds, so depending on which parent the pup takes after, the height, weight, coloring, and coat length of these Husky mixed-breeds can vary greatly. Just because you see a Golden Retriever and Husky hybrid with blue eyes and golden fur, doesn't mean you'll end up with that because it's all genetics. Additionally, you can find Husky mixes in shelters across the nation if you don't want to visit a breeder to obtain one of these designer dogs.
While some of these mixes are compact enough to fit in your bag and travel with, others may have short, sparse hair. These dogs aren't for everyone, though, as they are probably very energetic, quite stubborn, and require a lot of grooming. All of the available Husky mixes are listed below.
Types of Husky mixes
Pomsky (mix of Pomeranian and Husky)
The Pomsky, a mix of Pomeranian and Husky, is a cuddly, double-coated, and loving puppy. Depending on the size of their parents, they will fall between the small and medium categories. These pups are not the greatest choice for families with small children and other pets because they may inherit a high prey drive from their husky parent and a protective tendency from their pomeranian parent. They can be obstinate and willful, so it's crucial to train them from an early age, but they also make excellent cuddlers.
20 to 38 pounds is the estimated size.
Horgi (Corgi mix with husky)
The Horgi, also known as Siborgi, is a well-liked cross between huskies and corgis. This breed of puppy may inherit the prey drive of the Husky and the herding instinct of the Corgi, so they will need to be trained out of that behavior unless you want them herded around your kitchen. However, since both varieties are regarded as working dogs, your Horgi will be ready to acquire new skills. Due to their high level of energy, puppies of this breed are better suited for active pet parents who enjoy playing with their pets and taking them on lengthy walks or hikes.
Size estimate: 25 to 50 pounds
Goberian (Hurley mixed with Golden Retriever)
A medium-to-large cross between the Golden Retriever and the Husky is called a Goberian. Pets with yards can benefit greatly from the Goberian, as they are loving, playful, and high-energy. Although this puppy enjoys spending time with their pet parents, prolonged separation anxiety may develop if they are left alone. To keep them calm and content, mentally stimulating dog toys are also essential because they are highly intelligent and can occasionally become mischievous, especially if their personality is more akin to a husky than a retriever. Pet parents should be ready to devote a significant amount of time to constant brushing and vacuuming as this mixed breed is also prone to constant shedding.
Size estimated at 40–80 pounds.
Shepsky, a mixed German Shepherd and Husky
The ultimate working dog is the Shepsky, a crossbreed between the German Shepherd and the Husky. A confident, experienced pet parent and lots of mentally stimulating activity or a job are required for this mix of high-energy, loyal, and intelligent breeds. Active pet parents would benefit most from these puppies. This mixed-breed dog can coexist with older kids and other pets, but early socialization is necessary to prevent overly protective behavior. Although the eye and fur colors of Shepsky puppies vary, there is one thing that is certain: these pups raised in cold climates will constantly shed in addition to experiencing a few major shedding seasons.
Size estimate: 45–88 pounds
Pitsky (Husky/Pit Bull hybrid)
The first short-haired husky mix on this list is the Pitsky, a mix of a husky and a pit bull (though they can sometimes have longer hair). For people who don't want to invest a lot of time and energy in grooming, this pup is a better option. Nevertheless, the Pitsky is an incredibly energetic and loving family dog. They are better suited for an active pet parent who can accompany them on adventures, as they need a minimum of two hours of exercise daily. They can make wonderful, devoted, and cuddly additions to families if socialized at a young age.
Size estimate: 35 to 80 pounds
Chisky (Husky mix of Chihuahua)
The Chisky, also known as a Huskhuahua, is a hybrid of a husky and a chihuahua. Like the Pomsky, this breed of pup is extremely uncommon and typically necessitates the artificial insemination of the female dog. The reasons for this are probably not surprising. This breed, which can be small or medium-sized dogs, is on the smaller side in comparison to many of the pups on this list. The characteristic blue eyes of the Husky can be inherited by the Chisky; however, the length of the fur will depend on which Chihuahua you mix the Husky with and whose features are more dominant, so you may end up with a pup with short or long hair. With proper exercise, this breed can live happily in an apartment, although they do have a tendency to bark. Due to their size, this puppy may do better as a lone pet in a home without children as they are more prone to injury from mishandling.
Size estimate: 15 to 40 pounds
Mix of a Husky and a Poodle
Although it's not a given that pet parents will get a Huskydoodle with a low-shed coat, the Huskydoodle—a cross between a husky and a poodle—is typically bred for this trait. Depending on whose parent has the more dominant features, the appearance of these mixed pups can differ greatly. The intelligent and high-energy Huskydoodle needs a lot of mental and physical stimulation. The Huskydoodle is usually friendly toward children and other dogs and enjoys cuddling.
Size estimated at 40–60 pounds
Labsky (mix of Husky Lab)
Mixing a Labrador with a Husky, the Labsky is a playful friend that requires lots of playtime. Since both parent breeds are highly active working dogs, their dream home would be a home with a large backyard for them to run around in, or one close to parks. Maybe this puppy will even develop a fondness for swimming like the Lab. Although huskies have a tendency to be independent and stubborn, labs tend to be more laid back and are therefore a good choice for families with small children.
Size estimated at 40–60 pounds
Ausky, a mix of Australian Shepherd and Husky
The Australian Shepherd and Husky mix known as the Ausky, or Aussie Siberian, is most likely going to have those highly sought-after bright blue eyes. Due to their working parents (sled dogs and cattle dogs), this medium-sized dog will require approximately two hours of exercise per day. They want to spend a lot of time being active and spending quality time with loved ones, so they would be happiest in an outdoor-loving family. Prospective pet parents should be aware that this breed will experience multiple shedding seasons and require regular grooming due to the fact that both parents show off their impressive double coat.
Size estimate: 40 to 65 pounds
Border Husky (Horse Mixture with Border Collie)
A cross between the Border Collie and the husky is the Border Husky. Given that this pretty medium-sized pup is a cross between two of the smartest dog breeds available, pet parents should be ready for lively debates and brainstorm strategies for providing their pet with mental stimulation. They don't do well in small spaces and need to exercise for at least 90 minutes a day in addition to having lots of space to run around in. They are quite devoted to their family, but they can be aloof with outsiders.
Size estimate: 30 to 45 pounds
Boxsky (Hurst mix of Boxer)
The Boxsky is a cross between a husky and a boxer. The blue eyes and slightly shorter coat of this medium- or large-sized pup may be inherited from the Husky; it still needs some brushing, but not as much as the Husky's blowing coat. You can anticipate a tall dog that is obnoxious, silly, loving, and protective. The Boxsky is happiest in homes with a yard and needs to exercise for at least ninety minutes every day.
Size estimated at 40–80 pounds.
Dobsky (Hursky mixed with Doberman Pinscher)
The Dobsky, also known as the Siberian Pinscher, is a cross between the Doberman Pinscher and the Husky. The Dobsky, who is typically medium to large in size and has a shorter coat, is an affectionate, devoted, and active dog that needs a lot of exercise. Given their potential for goofiness and familial tendencies, Dobskys will need early socialization and training to help prevent overreactions to strangers (both human and animal).
Size estimate: 40 to 90 pounds
Akita-Husky hybrid, Huskita
The Akita Husky mix is a medium- to large-sized, incredibly fluffy hybrid of the husky breed. As Akitas guarded Japanese royalty and Huskies pulled sleds, this high-energy breed would benefit from employment. Given their past, the Akita Husky mix might only be a one-person dog. Given that Huskies are a pack animal and Akitas are known to do better alone, it's unclear how these puppies will react to outsiders. One thing is certain, though: They shed a lot.
Size estimate: 50 to 75 pounds
Beaski (Husky/Beagle hybrid)
A Beaski, also known as a Beagle Husky mix, is a medium-sized crossbreed of two working dogs. The Beagle was using its renowned nose to locate prey and guide hunters while the Husky was pulling sleds across the tundra. This extremely bright hybrid will require a lot of mental exercise, such as games and nose work. They require a lot of space to roam around in addition to extensive training because they can be sensitive and stubborn. Given that both breeds are pack animals, this puppy usually gets along with other dogs. Depending on which parent they inherit, their hair can vary greatly in length and amount of shedding.
Size estimate: 35 to 50 pounds
Rottsky (Husky Rottweiler mix)
The Husky Rottweiler mix, also called a Rottsky, is a rarer Husky hybrid. These pups are athletic, have high exercise requirements, and have working dog backgrounds. The Rottweiler was bred to pull carts and herd livestock, so with that in mind, it’s so important to keep this hybrid mentally stimulated. They are not recommended for inexperienced dog pet parents, because both breeds have a stubborn streak. It’s also important for this pup to have plenty of space inside the house and out, so they can get their energy out.
Estimated size: 40 to 110 pounds
