My curent female Siberian Husky, Natasha. I acquired her from a local shelter. I believe her name when I got her was Nikita. There was no major reason I changed it to Natasha other then I liked it better and I didn't want her to have the same name she used to have. As to why I went with Natasha instead of Ann, I give my dogs names from there 'native' country. While I don't know of any huskies native to Siberia, my huskies have always had Russian names. The one I had before Natasha was named Tovarisch and aside from having the Russian name he was also trained in Russian. I stuck with English commands with Natasha as she was probably around 3 yrs old when I got her and already well trained.
