Hakimi is hailed as a model in the Husky community, earning his keep by pulling carts. When people think of Huskies, what comes to mind? Are they known for being mischievous homewreckers or dramatic performers? However, in Lijiang, Yunnan, China, there is a unique Husky named Hakimi who defies these stereotypes. Instead of causing chaos, he helps transport luggage and earns his owner a substantial income!
A local resident in Lijiang, who runs a guesthouse, has a Husky named Hakimi that completely overturns the traditional image of Huskies. Not only does he refrain from destroying property, but he has also taught himself to pull carts with impressive skill. Mr. Xu, the guesthouse owner, shared that when Hakimi first started pulling carts, he occasionally tipped over or collided with people. However, through self-exploration and continuous practice, he eventually mastered the art of cart pulling.
Currently, the 200-meter route from the South Gate of Lijiang Ancient Town to the guesthouse has become Hakimi's "work runway." Every day, Hakimi makes between three to six trips, not only working diligently but also becoming a major attraction for the guesthouse. After Mr. Xu uploaded videos of Hakimi pulling carts online, they garnered over a million views. Mr. Xu revealed that 80% of his guests come specifically to see Hakimi, and during peak times, bookings reached an impressive $30,000 over three days.
Hakimi not only shatters people's preconceived notions about Huskies but also proves through his abilities that the pinnacle of a dog's life isn't about destruction; it's about making a living through talent.
