The Scottish Siberian Husky Club (SSHC) is a UK breed club dedicated to the promotion, welfare and responsible ownership of the Siberian Husky in Scotland. The organisation brings together owners, breeders and enthusiasts who share an interest in the breed’s history, health and working heritage.
The club organises a range of activities including Championship and Open dog shows, educational resources on breed health and standards, and working rallies where owners can participate in traditional husky harness activities. These events highlight the breed’s dual role as both a show dog and a working sled dog.
Alongside its events programme, the Scottish Siberian Husky Club provides guidance on responsible ownership, breeding ethics and welfare through its code of ethics, educational materials and welfare initiatives. Through these efforts the club works to preserve the characteristics, health and working ability that define the Siberian Husky as a northern working breed.
