Siberian Huskies can be great first time pets *if you’re dedicated* Thank you so much for doing your research and asking to find a reputable breeder. If you’re in canada, the majority of members of the siberian husky club of canada are reputable breeders. I have Huskies and am part of the club, but I do not breed litters. Try out http://www.siberianhuskyclubofcanada.com . We are a fairly close group and are bound by very strict by-laws. If you’re in the US I have a few kennels in mind – picking the right breeder is a huge accomplishment since that breeder will most likely guide you and mentor you throughout the life of your dog. Please contact me if you wish to have futhur information.

Just to let you know, Siberian Huskies are not first good time pets. They shed like crazy, they howl, they dig holes, they jump. So I would not recommend a husky for your first time dog. Do some more research just go on google and type in siberian husky info. You will find many sites there.
Hope I helped (:

Here are some Siberian Huskies on Petfinder.

Any reputable breeder OR rescue is going to want to do a home visit. They are going to want to see what day to day life is like AT your home, and honestly, a bunch of young kids is hardly an ideal situation for a new dog. The only ones who well sell you a dog are BYBs who care more about the money than the dog or your family, OR a kill shelter who will sell one to anyone, and chances are you won't find one there

obtaining a dog from a reputable breeder will not be "fairly inexpensive". Some of them have adults to place in pet homes for the cost of spay/neuter, but not too often that they have a younger dog to place.

shelter or rescue is your best bet. They are a common breed, so you shouldnt have any problems finding one thru there. http://www.petfinder.com

Some shelters and rescues require home visits, and some do not. The purpose of a home visit is to be sure that the home is safe for the dog (fenced yard if the rescue requires it, other pets appear to be cared for, entire family is on board with the idea of getting a dog, etc)

Do you know they shed a lot and are you aware that the dig holes and can be very bad runners (in that they will bolt through and open door and take off). Do a simple Google search "Siberian Husky Rescue" and you'll get useful information.
