Siberian Huskies are sometimes said to have "multiple personalities" because they have so many traits that some find "endearing" and others, not so much so. (Click on each answer to learn about the personality trait, thanks to Tails of the Tundra)
Now that the heat of the summer has kicked up, Siberian Huskies are always looking for new ways to "stay cool". Humans know that one way to keep the heat at bay is to stay close to or in a pool or other body of water. Kids even love to just run around and through a sprinkler to stay cool, but what can our beloved "furkids" do to "beat the heat"?
