Siberian Husky Info

[Cricket]

I'm wondering if there are any die hard Siberian Husky people out there?

A little history - I recently had my 2 year old fixed male Siberian Husky pass away & have realized that I can't live without another one. I mentioned to a friend that because of the void this has left in my life & my BF's that we have talked to the breeder that we had bought him from & have spoke for a female - do to the fact that I loved my baby so much I didn't want to feel like I was trying to replace him is why we have decided to go with a female. Now this friend mentioned that female's are alot harder to train & are not as smart I'm wondering if any one who has raised both sex's has found this? I realize that each dog is unique like human's but thought there might be someone here would could speak from personal experience?

Thanks for any info.
