All dogs, regardless of the breed, need daily walks or at least a minimum of 3 walks a week. A big yard will not substitute for this because a walk is not just about exercise. A walk is the dogs opportunity to get away from his/her house and be exposed to new sounds and smells. Without walks many dogs become extremely bored and may resort to ripping up your furniture/destroying things to cope with the boredom. A big yard will not help matters because as soon as the dog becomes sick of the yard (and it will) it may try to escape (i.e. digging a hole under the fence).

Is it okay to raise a husky in an apartment?

I wouldn't recommend it, in fact it would be somewhat cruel, but if you're home a LOT and walk it a LOT then it would be okay. Or you could be like me, and have a puppy, and move into a house soon. When they're still small they're fine, but when they get big a yard would be the best thing to do.

Our Cairn Terrier has grass allergies and needs medication. We don't have a dermatologist in our area. What should we give him Red irritated feet and stomach?

If you have a veterinarian in your area you should take your Terrier in to be seen. Benadryl can be given to dogs with allergies but it is recommended that a doctor see him before giving this medication. The average dosage is 1 mg per pound every 8 hours. I also have a suggestion which might help. You can purchase Potty Patch (https://www.besttvbuys.com/pottypatch) which is a fake grass that is washable and is primarily used for apartment living. What I am thinking is that you could purchase some of the patches and construct a dog run in the yard where your terrier could be outside and off of the natural grass which is causing all the problems.
