About

The VKC™ Siberian Husky was developed because it was the winner of the VKC Favorite Breed Poll. Residents of SL came to the VKC Dog Parks to click and vote for their favorite dog in the hope that Enrico Genosse would create an SL version of the dog they love best.

Siberian Huskies are loving, gentle, playful, happy-go-lucky dogs who are fond of their families. Good with children, loving with family, and  friendly with strangers, they are not watchdogs. While they bark little, they are known for the variety of sounds they make. The VKC Siberian Husky has several sounds typical of huskies.

Permissions

The Siberian Huskies are NOT transferable. If you wish to adopt a Siberian Husky as a gift for another, please send the Siberian Husky as a gift from our Marketplace store.

Instincts

• Basic Positions: stand, sit, down, bang, beg, bellyup, shake, rest
• Basic Activities: come, getbone, howl, itch, pounce,roll, rove, sniff, speak, wag, wander
• Other Activities: go, run, on, greet, get (These require you to name a destination or an object; for example, "Fido go Sandry" or "Fido run redball" or "Fido greet Bichon")
• Owner-only commands: heel, follow (Follow also requires you to name a destination)
• Special command: fetch (Requires a redball toy, free at VKC Dog Parks)

These instincts are not described in any detail because it will be much more fun for you and your dog to try them out together.

Special Commands

The name Micmac is used here as an example. You should use your dog's actual name or the general name, dogs, to command your dog.

awesome

Say: micmac awesome

touch (this requires the name of an object you want the dog to touch)

Say: turk touch ball

It is important to mention that touch is designed to allow the dog to touch small objects and intended to be incorporated into your tricks, for example ringing the bell. It will not work very well if you tell your dog to touch an avatar or a large object like a house or tree.

Special Poses

When you pet the black and white Siberian Husky, he rolls over onto his back and gently places his left paw on your shoulder while you rub his belly.

The following poses add liveliness and charm to tricks you teach your dog. They must be used with the command pose. For example, to get the dog to rise up on his hind legs, you would say, "Micmac pose rise."

• beg2, beg3 (slight variations of the beg pose)
• bellyup2, bellyup3 (similar to bellyup but dog holds his head and tail in different positions)
• down2, down3, down4, down5, down6, down7, down8 (slight variations of the down position)
• drop (pose to drop a toy or other object from his mouth)
• howl2 (minor variations of the howl position)
• play, play2 (slight variations of the play bow)
• rise, leap, land (this is a trio of poses that are part of the instinct pounce)
• sit2, sit3 (slight variations of the sit pose)
• stand2, stand3, stand4, stand5 (slight variations of the stand pose)

The collar on the Siberian Husky can be changed using the tint and color commands.
