    I had written a very long response, but it just sounded too negative. Here's my summarized thoughts:

    -Puppies are high energy
    -Pits/GS are high energy
    -I've met a number of huskies I wouldn't trust around children and small dogs, much less small cats and kittens. These are well-trained dogs kept by experienced dog owners, hard to blame some of the dog's reactions to small-critter stimuli on the owner. And of course, high energy.

    There is a ton of what you're looking for that makes me think "gee, unless he keeps the dog leashed around the house 100% of the time, at least for the first three years, he's asking for trouble."

    I know plenty of people lean towards purebreeds and non-shelter animals, but if I was going to add a dog to a 2-cat household, I would ONLY go with an animal already proven to be cat-socialized.
