“Get a Husky,” They Said—Brazilian Dog Climbs to New Heights, Literally

In a scene that left both dog lovers and amused bystanders scratching their heads, a Siberian Husky in Brazil managed to climb to an unexpected place—straight up a utility pole.

The viral moment, caught on camera and shared widely across social media, shows the determined pup perched awkwardly but impressively high above the ground, all four paws clinging to the wooden pole like a seasoned climber. Locals looked on in disbelief as the furry daredevil defied every expectation of typical canine behavior.

“Get a Husky, they said. It’ll be fun, they said,” joked the dog’s owner in a post that quickly garnered thousands of shares and comments. Apparently, no one expected “fun” to include a spontaneous pole-climbing session.

Siberian Huskies, known for their intelligence, curiosity, and boundless energy, have long been escape artists. Stories of them jumping fences, digging under gates, or unlocking doors are nothing new. But pole climbing? That’s a new one—even for a Husky.

Experts suggest that Huskies’ wolf-like agility and powerful hind legs make them surprisingly capable of pulling off such stunts, though ascending a vertical wooden pole still remains an unusual feat.

Fortunately, the adventurous Husky was safely brought back down without injury—though not without plenty of head tilts and laughter. Firefighters and animal control officers were reportedly called in to assist, though the dog seemed more thrilled by the attention than anything else.

The incident has sparked a wave of memes and playful warnings online. One popular comment reads: “Huskies don’t need space. They need supervision… and apparently, rock-climbing gear.”

While the Brazilian Husky is back on solid ground, the internet can’t seem to get enough of this high-flying escapade. And for potential Husky owners out there: consider this your official reminder—owning a Husky is never boring.
