2. very intelligent = hard to train
3. WILL destroy your yard. They love to dig and chew.
4. WILL pull on the lead.
If your girlfriend wants a Husky because they are cute and wolf like wrong reason to get one.
Sorry for the rant, i've seen a lot of huskies bought for the wrong reasons. Just a bit of advice.

I have an Alaskan Malamute - similar issues as Sibe's just twice the size. I have seen quite a few re homed because someone wanted a "wolf" and had no idea what they were in for.
Having said all that she has been part of our family for 12 years and I wold never change that.
You get out what you put in with dogs and kids
