| Hi. Does anyone use weight vests for their huskies or any other methods to exercise them and increase their muscle mass? |

| I don't use a weight vest, but we do have a dog-pack that he carries water bottles in for added weight. We love it  The brand we use is called "Wolf Pack" _________________ www.itsahuskything.com

| I wouldn't have thought that a weight vest will exercise the right muscle groups for a Siberian Husky. The best exercise for a husky will be something involving both running and pulling. Using a weight vest would be like a marathon runner doing bench presses and squats. You might end up with a dog looking like a Pitbull on steroids, but it wouldn't be right for a sibe.
