Hmm... ok.
My first Husky loved to run away, but he was always smart enough to come back. We had a privacy fence and he would dig his way underneath it. We would patch the hole and be fine for a while. Then he would dig another and get out. The Weim we had at the time would have followed him but he was too lanky and couldn't get out. Many times we knew when the Husky had left because the Weim would whine so much because he couldn't follow.
Any dog loves to run and get away; I guess a sense of independence and rebellion. He's the cool dog on the block because he got out and the others didn't. Lol, if anything you've got a better chance getting the Husky back; I couldn't believe my first one would come back on his own. It's dangerous though. Depending on the dog's personality and temperment he might want to cause too much trouble and attack and kill things, make messes of people's garbage. You never know.
My Husky that I have now I certainly would not trust being off leash. I know his personality and his temperment and... well, I just wouldn't trust it. He loves to run, loves to explore. But also loves to hunt and kill. He's an absolute sweet heart, but he'll chase down small animals, maybe even large ones, if given the opportunity.
All of my dogs have been crate trained. It's too much of a liability to have them running around the house without a human. Not to mention the fact that it's their own safety from each other. The Weim and the Husky do not get along and to have them out together is just not a smart idea. Plus without proper supervision I know one of the dogs would take the opportunity to mark some territory.
It's not that I don't allow them to sleep with me, it's just sometimes it's better for them not to. I allowed my Weim to sleep with me for too long and now he whines and cries whenever someone leaves or comes home, or even doesn't get his way. He gets tough love, but still has plenty of love to dish out.
The Husky loves his kennel. He crawls in there whenever he's tired, or hot. It's a nice cool, dark place for him to take a nap. Sometimes I'll realize "hey... where's my dog?" And he has just choosen on his own to lay in his cage. I have to coax him just to come and lay out on the carpet or the couch.
If you look at kennels in a negative aspect you're going to resent them. But if you use them as a training tool, and even a safety precaution it'll work out the way it's supposed to.
