get a husky dog

yeah i remembered one of the animated movies “Balto” about a real life husky who saved the day but it wasn’t till i saw one at the petshop that i fell inlove with one. the puppy came to me like a lil sheep, full of enthusiasm and joy! i wanted to get one but my family is afraid that it might have some hidden genes from the wolf (since it looks like one) and might attack people. I really want one, but might have to wait as it is one of those big dogs with high maintainance, not in a way that i;ll mind. pls lemme know if anyone knows some facts on this. thnx
