The Story
The Goberian combines the Golden Retriever with the Siberian Husky — a striking combination that often produces a large, athletic dog with the Golden's warmth and the Husky's independent streak, blue eyes, and striking appearance. The combination is unpredictable — some Goberians have the Golden's biddability and sociability while others inherit the Husky's independence and wandering instinct more strongly. The coat sheds significantly from both parent breeds.
