if you're going to have children during hte lifetime fo the dog i don't suggest a husky. i hate to say it but i've seen more than one husky snap at small children. i don't know about endurance, but my mom's malamute loves to be outside, walks, running, playing,e tc. well except now that he is older. but especially in the cold. he however does not bark at anything. he howls (his name is chewbacca, interesting fact: george lucas named the character chewbacca after his own malamute) he loves people and attention, and has never, not even in his old age, snapped at a child. he has growled, but more of a "help get them off me!" than a "i'm gonan bite" growl. and of course we don't leave children int he presence of any animal alone.


either way if you don't htink you're going ot have children in the next 10-15 years a husky, or lab might be your best bet.
