Origin of the word husky

The word "husky" originated from the indigenous Siberian Yupik language. It comes from the word "esky," which refers to the indigenous people of the Chukchi Peninsula in Siberia, where the breed originated. The Chukchi people were known for their sled dogs, and European explorers likely adopted the word "esky" to describe these dogs, eventually evolving into "husky." The name eventually became associated with the Siberian Husky breed.
