What breed of Husky is my dog? She is noted as a Alaskan Husky, but majority of the photos I have seen of Alaskans do not look like the love of my life! If anyone can advise, please do!

I was wondering if anyone thought my dog could be mostly Siberian Husky. I know that his mom was a small arctic sled dog, but don't know who the father was. Any guesses?

I used to own an Alaskan Siberian Mix that looked exactly like your husky, not a single difference. If I had to guess I'd tell you that's what your husky is. Hopefully you have figured out what exact kind he or she is.

I just saw your picture. He looks very much like a Siberian husky. I raised one years ago and he was the love of my life as a child. My Siberian husky had wolf in him and had very nice eyes. The color and markings were very close to my males markings.

I thought I was getting a terrier pup. When I went to get her she looked like a husky. If she is part terrier part husky can anyone tell me what kind of husky she is.

My dog looks just like yours as well. I spoke to a man about my dog because I had the same question. He stated she was an Alaskan Malamute.

He looks like a siberian huskie, however, alaskan huskies are typically a cross between huskies and malamutes or other breeds, northern people cross breeding to find the best true sled dog, basically, a mutt, but a gorgeous, friendly one!

Go get a dna test from a registry like akc or something, but I think that is a Siberian husky... mixed or not. I don't know and I am sure not many people can tell either by look at her.
Those who said Alaskan huskies are wrong. There is no such thing as Alaskan huskies.. Although it is used by many people to describe a cross breed or Siberian husky and Alaskan malamute. Please get it right. Thanks.

I think you have a Seppla husky. I just saw one the other day and he was identical to yours even the eyes were the same color. The owners told them they got her from a breeder and it was a seppla husky.

She looks like a full blooded siberian husky. Contrary to popular belief, not all Siberians have blue eyes; they can have both brown OR one brown and one blue. Alaskan Huskies are not actually a "breed" per se. They were produced by crossing the Alaskan Malamute (a much larger, heavier sled dog bred for strength) with the Siberian to bring out the best traits of both. Siberians were bred for racing. The legendary Balto (the movie was a bunch of crap) was not part wolf. He was a full-blooded Siberian Husky that even had papers.

An Alaskan husky is any kind of sled dog mix. They are not pure breads that is why each one is unique in their apprentice traditionally the Alaskan husky is a Siberian Husky and a Alaskan Malamute mixed. An Alaskan Malamute looks very similar to a Siberian Husky only they are much larger and have a much bulkier ticker build. your dog looks more like a Siberian husky more then anything else but its hard say for sure unless your dog has papers.

I moderate a very large Alaskan Malamute Internet group (500+ members) and wanted to correct a couple things. Malamutes do not have blue eyes, they have dark brown eyes (the red Malamutes can have lighter brown eyes). Wolves do not have blue eyes, they have light brown eyes. Any Arctic-looking dog with blue eyes has some Siberian Husky in him. Siberians can have two different colored-eyes. Alaskan Huskies are a mix of many different breeds and can look similar to a Siberian. Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies come in many colors and with many facial markings so you can't judge the breed by that alone. The main difference is in size and bone structure. Siberians should be around 50lbs and light boned and Malamutes should be over 85lbs and stocky.

Hi Jeanine,
the love of your life is definitely Siberian Husky. There are Siberian Husky and Alaskan Malamute. Siberian Husky has fine skeleton to compare it to Alaskan Malamute. Alaskan Malamute is bigger and more solid than Siberian Husky. Alaskan Malamute tail is slighthly curly, Siberian Husky has like "fox" tail. Both breeds can have blue eyes, also one blue and one brown or both brown. Just love it as it is!! ;o)))""

Thank you all for responding! The info you gave me Susan, was a great help. Melanie, her tail curls down towards the base of her tail, thank you for the response, I am impressed that my Shakira has the same markings as a Malamute! Thank you all once again.

Here's a good link about them:
http://home.swipnet.se/~w-65633/canidae/breed/canis_alaskan_huskies.htm
and another:
http://www.pocanticohills.org/dogs/alaskanhusky.htm
From things I've read, they can look really different from one another. Some have curly tails, others not. The blue eyes come from the wolf in them. We have a lot of Alaskan Huskies here in the Pacific Northwest and he looks like one to me! Susan from ThriftyFun
This one has a dog that looks similar to yours.

Your dog looks exactly like our dog Farley, except for the one blue eye! If he is the same as ours, then he is an Alaskan Malamute. He has the exact same markings and features. If his tail curls up, then he probably is a Malamute. Hope this helps!
