Husky, say, or another animal (5)
I believe the answer is:
horse
'another animal' is the definition.
'horse' can be an answer for 'animal' (type of animal). I am not certain of the 'another' bit.
'husky say' is the wordplay.
'husky' becomes 'hoarse' (synonyms).
'say' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'hoarse' is a homophone of 'HORSE'.
'or' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for horse that I've seen before include "Hoofed mammal" , "Animal; cavalry" , "bay, perhaps" , "Ridden animal" , "punch, perhaps" .)
