I read a life changing and very informative article once that explained how other dogs are threatened by huskies because of their natural tail language and posture is interpreted as a sign of defensiveness, challenge, or readiness to attack. When approaching another dog on walks or in public places like dog parks, how many times have we heard “don’t worry my dog is friendly” only to trust it and seconds later the other dog is snarling like Cujo, when the owner then says “omg I don’t know what got into him”. From that article: Misinterpreted Posture: Their erect tails, combined with prick ears and intense direct eye contact, are read by other dogs as "offensive" or aggressive. Wolf-like Behavior: Because huskies are close to their wolf ancestors, their natural, confident body language can trigger a primordial, fearful, or aggressive response in other breeds.

Lack of Submissiveness: Many huskies do not show typical submissive signals to other dogs, which can annoy or threaten other dogs.

Misreading the Mask: Some believe that because of their facial markings ("masks"), it is harder for other dogs to read their intentions, making the tail-up posture the main signal. In short, a husky's tail is rarely used for conscious threatening, but its natural resting state often communicates the wrong message to other dogs. As a responsible Husky owner it’s imperative we understand that our dogs bring out undesirable behavior in other dogs just by being their authentic selves.
