Amanda is right.
They play rough, it is just their way.
When we had our Rough collie with just one Husky at the time, Storm would try to ride his back, it was funny to watch but Sonny really didnt like it and it led to loads of fights.
They blow their coat big time too so be prepared for a lot of fur everywhere.
I dont want to put you off especially since these poor dogs will be PTS so i really pray they get homes and soon!!
Just research huskies and this one you like, they need a lot of excersise and are strong and can be very dominant if not handled properly.
They are the most amazing dogs though, so licky and loving.
I share 3 with my partner, but they havent met the chi's and because there are 3 of them and they are a very strong pack, i would never let them be around my chi's.
Small animals are like toys to them, well ours at least, so i will never chance it.

Val here got one husky and and he is very gentle and gets on famously with her 2 chi's so it can depend on the dog too and their background of course, and if only one could be a lot easier than more than one husky together with your other animals.
Like i say, brilliant dogs and so beautiful too!!!

Just something to think about though.
If you go ahead, dont leave the husky and the others unsupervised for a while.

Good luck whatever you decide.

Thanks everyone for all of your feedback, advice and support! I have been overruled, sadly. If it were up to my fiance we would have two dogs, as it is we have 3, and two cats. I wish I could help her. Even though we know intellectually that there are countless animals being euthanized every day, it is so much more real to see the face of one particular dog and see that she is scheduled to be put down tomorrow.
I dated someone a few years ago who had a Siberian, and I absolutely adored it and often pet sat for him well after we stopped dating. He was really good with Reese and my roommates large dog, but not so great with the cats. He was also a great running buddy, but certainly a puller! I was actually so in love with that dog that I seriously considered an Alaskan Klee Kai before settling on a chihuahua. I know Ill have a husky someday, I just wish I could help this one, today. Ah the compromises of sharing your life with someone else.

Thats really too bad, I wish you could get her. Is there a no kill shelter you could contact that could pick her up? It's a shame to see any dog put down.
