Husky is considered one of the most popular breeds in the world.
However, there are many dogs similar to him. Some of them are almost as beloved and popular, others are less known.
Finally, there are breeds similar to the Siberian Husky that few non-specialists have heard anything about.
Why are they all remarkable and can these breeds be considered related to huskies?
Laika
This versatile hunting and guard dog has lived next to humans for many centuries. Today there are up to a dozen different breeds of Laika, their weight can vary from 30 kg (for the Yakut Laika) to 10 kg (for the Karelian-Finnish Laika). External similarities with a husky include a compact build, dense and thick hair and erect ears. You can tell a husky from a husky by its curled tail. Laikas are very emotional and passionate dogs, but their increased curiosity and excitability make their training a labor-intensive process.
Breeds with external similarities
Malamute
This is just like the husky, a sled dog of the aboriginal type, only larger. This breed was intended for carrying heavy loads and is one of the oldest.
Outwardly, Malamutes resemble wolves. Their sizes range from 60 to 63 cm at the withers for males and from 57 to 59 cm for females. Weight, depending on gender, can be from 34 to 40 kg.
The body is compact and strong. The head is moderately wide, but proportional to the body, the muzzle slightly tapering towards the nose. The ears are erect, triangle-shaped, slightly rounded at the tips.
The eyes are small, dark, slightly slanted. The expression of the muzzle is intelligent, friendly and calm. The tail is carried over the back, but is not curled. The wool is two-layered, consisting of soft down and coarse guard hair.
NOTE!
The length of the coat varies from short on the head, ears, muzzle and front of the legs to longer on the back, withers, neck, rump, hips and tail.
By nature, these are friendly, calm and balanced dogs, distinguished by intelligence and intelligence. However, due to the Malamute's hunting instinct, it can be aggressive towards smaller animals and, moreover, strives to take a dominant position among other dogs.
They are similar to huskies, first of all, in their color: with a light mask on the face and lightening on the neck, chest, belly, limbs and, often, on the tail. In addition, both of these dogs have triangular ears, thick coat consisting of two layers and a fairly long, well-furred tail.
Inuit
An officially unrecognized breed of dog that looks like a wolf, which was bred using huskies, malamutes, German shepherds, and possibly other, mainly sledding breeds.
Dimensions can range from 59 to 76 cm at the withers, and weight can range from 25 to 50 kg.
The body format is close to square. The head is in the form of a wedge, the slightly elongated muzzle is equal in length to the skull. The eyes are almond-shaped, their color can be golden, amber or brown; there are also Inuit with blue eyes. The ears are erect, slightly rounded, set quite close to each other. The nose is usually black.
The physique is moderately strong and harmonious. The line of the back is slightly sloping towards the croup, the chest is deep and quite wide, the belly is slightly tucked. The tail is straight or sickle-shaped, hanging down.
The coat is thick and dense, consisting of a hard spine and soft undercoat, with slight pubescence on the tail, and a small collar or something like a small mane on the neck.
The most characteristic colors of the Inuit are pure white, pure black and grayish wolf, and often there is a lightish mask on the muzzle, giving these dogs a resemblance to a husky.
Their character is not simple: they, like huskies, are characterized by stubbornness and self-will. In addition, Inuit are dominant towards other dogs and can be overly distrustful of strangers.
Volchak
Brought out in Czechoslovakia as a result of an experiment on crossing German shepherds and Carpathian wolves conducted in 1955.
The physique is similar to a wolf, it is characterized by a slightly stretched body, small erect ears and a slightly flattened, but at the same time deep chest. The forelimbs are level and straight, spaced rather narrowly. The tail is set low, and when calm it hangs down and reaches the metatarsus.
Height is at least 65 cm, and weight is from 20 kg.
IMPORTANT!
A characteristic feature of this breed, which gives it a special resemblance to wolves, is thick, but not particularly long, zone-gray or grayish-yellow hair.
Wolfdogs are distinguished by their temperamental, rather active and playful disposition. But due to the presence of the blood of a wild predator, they are aggressive towards other animals.
Wolf dogs are similar to huskies with triangular ears, a wedge-shaped head with a slightly narrowed muzzle, and thick and dense hair.
Wolfdog
This hybrid, like the wolfdog, appeared as a result of targeted interspecific crossing of a wolf and a German shepherd. But the wolf-dog has a significantly higher percentage of the blood of a wild predator, which determines not only its more obvious external resemblance to a wolf, but also its mental and temperamental characteristics.
They have a keen sense of smell and excellent learning ability and are quite tolerant of strangers.
These are large animals, similar to both wolves and German shepherds. They also somewhat resemble Siberian huskies with erect triangular ears and their predominantly grayish coloring.
Wolf dogs are not recognized by any cynological federation in the world.
Klee Kai
The Klee Kai is a dog breed very similar to the Husky, but differs from them in being much smaller in stature. Their height at the withers does not exceed 43 cm, and their weight is 11 kg.
The muzzle is somewhat shorter than that of a husky, the ears are larger, and the tail is set higher. Klee Kais come in only three coat colors: black and white, gray and white, and red and white. Their fur itself can be either quite short or relatively long.
There are many similarities in the character of Klee Kais and Huskies: they are equally intelligent, curious and active. But Klee Kais do not have the good nature of huskies towards strangers: they are distrustful and quite cautious.
They also have another similarity with huskies - the eyes of Klee Kais can be not only brown, but also blue.
Klee Kais have a hunting instinct, which is why they need proper and timely socialization.
Shiba Inu
Despite the fact that the Shiba Inu is not a sled dog, but an Asian-type Spitz, it resembles a husky with thick double-layered hair, triangular erect ears and an upturned tail. True, the Shiba Inu is smaller size
They are characterized by the so-called urajiro - lightening of the main color to almost white on the face, neck, chest, belly, paws and the inside of the tail. Essentially, this is a variation of the subclass typical of Siberian Huskies.
Like Siberian Huskies, Shiba Inus are very smart and quick-witted, they are also characterized by stubbornness and independence. However, they are more calm, obedient and sincere.
NOTE!
The Shiba Inu has long been used as a hunting breed, and therefore can be aggressive towards birds and rodents, which it considers its prey.
Laika
Laikas are dogs that belong to a group of breeds that have similar appearance, behavioral characteristics and character. Most huskies are considered universal hunting dogs, which, however, can also perform other functions, such as guarding the house.
By nature, they are distinguished by a calm and balanced temperament, obedient and devoted to their owners. When hunting, they are tireless, hardy and excellent at untangling animal tracks.
The external features of huskies that give them a resemblance to a husky include a rather compact build, erect triangular ears, as well as dense and thick, but not particularly long, hair.
The husky's tail is usually curled into a ring, thanks to which it can be easily distinguished from a husky.
Samoyed
The Samoyed is a medium-sized, fluffy white dog with a harmonious build and elegant appearance. In her entire appearance one can feel strength, power and endurance, combined with friendliness and charm.
The Samoyed's ears are small, erect, and triangular in shape; when moving, the tail can be thrown over the back or side, and when calm it can be lowered and touch the hocks.
The coat is very thick and fluffy, forming a kind of collar on the neck, as well as pants on the hind legs and hair on the tail, giving it the appearance of a plume.
The Samoyed's coat must have the cool, sparkling shine characteristic of this breed.
They are friendly, playful and smart in nature. Like Siberian Huskies, they have a willful and independent disposition, as well as a tendency to be stubborn at times.
However, both the Husky and the Samoyed have many positive traits: both of these dogs are strong, hardy, unpretentious, love children and are devoted to their owners.
Utonagan
This breed was obtained by crossing a Husky, a Malamute and a Shepherd. Mixed brown, bright red and gray colors are allowed. Utonagans can live in a city apartment as companion dogs, and can also be used in a country house as guard dogs.
The described breeds are united not only by external similarity, but also by character traits - physical strength, some willfulness, a desire for leadership and the presence of instincts for hunting live prey. Therefore, all of them, even miniature Klee Kais, need proper education and training from an early age.
Larger breeds
Greenland dog
It is distinguished by an excellent sense of smell, strength, endurance, stamina, unpretentiousness and the ability to navigate the terrain well.
The head is similar in shape and size to a wolf: the skull is wide and slightly convex, the muzzle is short and moderately wide, slightly tapering towards the nose. The ears are triangular, small in size, erect. The eyes are dark, slightly slanted.
The body is strong and muscular, the neck is quite short and powerful, the chest is wide and voluminous. Limbs are strong, parallel and straight. The tail is thick and fluffy, relatively short, usually carried over the back.
The wool is two-layered, very thick and harsh. Any color of a Greenland dog is acceptable, except for albinism.
IMPORTANT!
Outwardly, these dogs are similar to huskies, but they are larger and stockier - their height should be at least 60 cm for males and 55 cm for females.
By nature, Greenland dogs are quite temperamental and friendly towards people, although they can be overly self-sufficient and independent. They do not recognize every person as an owner, but only the one who can achieve their respect.
Akita Inu
A large, Spitz-like dog used as a hunting and guard dog. The height at the withers is from 61 to 67 cm, and the weight is 40-50 kg.
This is a strong and robust animal with a harmonious physique. The head is quite large and heavy, but at the same time proportional to the body, the transition to a short muzzle is well defined. The eyes are small and triangular. The ears are medium-sized, erect and very dense. The body is muscular and strong, slightly stretched in length.
The Akita Inu coat . It consists of elongated and rather coarse hairs of the top layer, a hard but somewhat shorter awn and a soft dense undercoat. The most common colors are red, brindle, sesame or pure white.
Akita Inu is devoted to its owner and, if properly raised, is not aggressive. It is believed that her character contains feline traits, such as some detachment, as well as the habit of washing herself with her paws.
They are similar to huskies not only in appearance: both of these dogs are quite independent and independent, in addition, they both have hunting instincts.
American Akita
The American Akita is a fairly large dog (61-71 cm at the withers), with strong and even heavy bones, a massive head and a moderately wide muzzle. The ears are small, erect, the eyes are medium-sized, dark brown.
The body format is slightly stretched, the chest is voluminous and powerful, the back is straight, the limbs are parallel and strong. The tail is fluffy, usually curled into a complete or incomplete ring.
The coat is double, consisting of a soft and relatively short undercoat, as well as a thick and harsh elongated awn. Oh beauty can be anything.
The character is balanced and calm. These are friendly, but at the same time careful and vigilant dogs.
NOTE!
American Akitas resemble Siberian Huskies not only with erect triangular ears and a wedge-shaped head, but also with endurance, unpretentiousness and independent disposition.
Nuances of breeding
The crossing of a dog and a wolf in the wild happens quite rarely, and this fact could not but arouse interest among scientists. Most often this happens in areas where the number of wolves is small, and also if she-wolves are left without a mate. In other cases, wild animals pose a danger even to large dogs.
If we are talking about breeds that simply look like wolves, their breeding does not differ in any particular way. As for crossing, certain difficulties may arise here. Due to genetic displacement, it is not uncommon for only 1-2 puppies from a litter to be considered a successful crossbreed. Congenital anomalies of physical development occur, for example, when the skeleton and ligament system are inherited from different parents.
Another problem with such crossbreeds is the bite. Its fault, as in the previous case, is the difference between the types of parents. Pathologies may be incompatible with life, then the puppies are simply euthanized. In cases where the indicators are within normal limits, and the character and instincts do not inspire fear in researchers, the animal is provided with the necessary conditions of detention.
One cannot ignore the problem that arises when breeding crosses between a dog and a wolf, such as mental imbalance. The pack instinct is very pronounced, as a result of which the animal will fight for its place more actively than an ordinary dog and can use various, sometimes even harsh, methods for this.
When puppies appear that meet the requirements of breeders, you need to remember about their mandatory, as early as possible socialization. Literally in the first minutes of life they must get to know a person. Experts also recommend not depriving children of the company of puppies of ordinary dog breeds. Socialization is a long process and must be maintained throughout the animal’s life. However, wolf genes still will not allow making a mestizo absolutely soft and good-natured.
See the following video about the characteristics of the breed.
Northern Inuit
The Northern Inuit is a breed that is still not recognized by the FCI. Outwardly, it is a cross between a Samoyed husky, a husky and a wolf. There are even Inuit with a white coat. Unlike Samoyeds, they look less plush.
Northern Inuit dogs played direwolves in the Game of Thrones series, based on the A Song of Ice and Fire book series by George R. R. Martin

A cross between a husky and a husky: name of the breed, appearance
Common husky analogue mestizos are represented by a mixture of:
- with Alabai - dogs have larger sizes and a stronger build;
- with a German shepherd - the cross has received many names: husky shepherd, Gerberian Shepski, Siberian shepherd and German husky;
- with a husky - a mestizo has the appearance of one of the parents, and the character of the other, the exterior depends on the variety of the northern breed;
- with a Malamute - the kids resemble both breeds at the same time, the average height ranges from 56 to 58 cm.
Important! Mixtures can be of any color - reddish, grayish, white, brown, medium-sized or large. Indicators depend on the second parent.
Why do huskies end up in shelters?
By visiting any of the sites that offer shelter dogs, you can see how common huskies are found there.
Most of them ended up in the shelter for a completely banal reason - they ran away from their owners. Some huskies manage to find new owners only in private homes, since “runaways” have an uncontrollable and freedom-loving disposition - walls, doors and furniture are not barriers for huskies. On their way they destroy everything.
There is a known case when it was necessary to take a photo of a one-year-old husky for an advertisement. The young dog tried to get out of the collar and wanted to run away, despite the good attitude of the owners. I had to pull the leash tight and secure the dog so that he wouldn’t move for at least a couple of seconds. This is a small example of the wild, freedom-loving and rebellious spirit of the husky, which is to the taste of few.
And although breeders are aware of the complex nature of huskies, they still “disappoint” their owners and end up in shelters. Looks like fashion is to blame.

Origin history and interesting facts
The Husky dog breed is one of the oldest on earth. These dogs were bred in northeastern Siberia. It is impossible to say exactly how long this animal has existed, but some experts believe that it is more than three thousand years old. It is believed that the breed may have originated from wolves.
Husky is the most runaway breed
For your information! Of course, the Siberian Husky was bred for a reason. The appearance of the breed was attributed to the Chukchi, who needed hardy, strong, active animals that could pull a sleigh and would not be afraid of any frost. These are the dogs that huskies are today.
In addition, the Husky is a dog that always needed a small amount of food, despite the heavy load it endured during its races. This ability was also valued by early breeders.
What happened in the end? The animal had incredible intelligence and devotion to its owner. Endurance, strength and speed made him an unsurpassed sled dog. The animals could live peacefully on the street or in a yurt, where they warmed newborn babies with their bodies and fur.
Malamute
Representatives of the breed are larger and resemble wolves in appearance. The head is wide, but proportional to the body, the ears are triangular, erect, the eyes are dark, slanted. The coat is two-layered: the guard hair is coarse, and the down is soft, silky. The animal behaves calmly and is friendly towards humans. Attacks of aggression are possible, as a reaction to small animals and a struggle for leadership.
The Malamute is bred in the northern regions for carrying heavy loads. It looks like a husky in color, ear shape, and bushy tail. Characteristic differences:
- larger sizes;
- narrowing of the muzzle towards the nose;
- oval ear tips;
- lack of sharp contrasts in coat color.
Are there other types
The Siberian Husky is a world-famous sledding breed, whose “services” are used by the peoples of the Far East. The average weight of the animal is 15-28 kg, height at the withers is 50-60 cm.
It is believed that huskies originated from the inhabitants of Kolyma, Kamchatka, and Anadyr. Dogs of this breed appeared in North America at the beginning of the 20th century, where they were officially registered.
Fans of Siberian Huskies are attracted by the animal’s elegant coat color, thick fur and expressive blue eyes.
Similar traits can be found in representatives of breeds similar to husky. This is interesting! Huskies are considered one of the most common breeds found in homeless animal shelters. This is because not everyone can cope with their character.
Chihuahua
The smallest smooth-haired dog breed. The animals were bred in Mexico and named after the largest state of this country, Chihuahua.
The height of the Chihuahua Millie from the Guinness Book of Records is only 9.65 cm.
Smooth-haired Chihuahua.
The breed includes 2 types of dogs: smooth-haired and long-haired. The former have short, soft fur, sometimes slightly elongated on the neck and tail. The standard allows any colors except merle.
Chihuahua puppies mature quickly, so they need early socialization. By the end of 1 year of life, dogs have finally formed habits, behavioral patterns, and character. Chihuahuas easily adapt to new conditions, are not capricious, but are offended by shouts and rudeness. They easily build relationships with pets and are not afraid of large dogs.
Alaskan Klee Kai
These dogs are often called a miniature version of a husky. In fact, this is so: the ancestor of the family was, presumably, a husky with the dwarfism gene, which they decided to fix. However, there is controversy over the nature of the dogs. Most owners claim that the Alaskan Klee Kai is a more balanced and calm breed. These pets also do not tolerate loneliness very well, but are less prone to running away and destructive behavior. Unfortunately, this is a rare breed, so the average cost of puppies is 100,000–150,000 rubles.
Age of change
The beginning of the twentieth century was a turning point in the history of the breed. Soviet dog handlers decided that this dog was too small for cargo transportation, and therefore useless. She lost her breed status and breeding was prohibited. A new round of development of the breed occurred thanks to the Americans. Around 1930, the Alaska Gold Rush began and several teams of huskies were taken there. It was here that sled dogs showed themselves in all their glory. The path to the mines was not close, but with such partners it became much more fun.
Huskies began to rapidly gain popularity and participate in a variety of exhibitions and competitions. Around this time, representatives of the glorious breed even became national heroes, fighting their way through a snowstorm with a load of medicine for the city. The Husky dogs shone again. Photos of hero dogs were seen by the whole world.
Aquarius - Jack Russell Terrier
If a Jack Russell catches you red-handed (you are reading the newspaper here when the dog has not been playing for five minutes!), you will not be able to get away. You'll have to throw the ball again - and throw the ball again. Ball. Ball. Ball. Ball. There is, of course, another option - you can abandon the Jack Russell, in the sense of being left to the mercy of fate: let him entertain himself, since he is such a funny fellow! But it should be remembered that the Jack Russell Terrier is not just a merry fellow, but a hunting dog, ready to dive into a hole with anyone and take a fight there. So if your Jack Russell begins to entertain itself, there is a chance that you will not be very happy with the result. I mean, you'll be tortured to hide the corpses. So you better throw him the ball. And go to the skating rink with Aquarius. Otherwise it will be worse.

Upbringing
If you don't have much time, a Husky puppy will bring a lot of problems. He needs to be dealt with almost constantly, because if left alone, he will begin to gnaw, dig and destroy everything around him. You need to remember about upbringing from day one. A husky can have only one owner, to whom he will obey. The dog will love and recognize all other family members, but there can only be one leader. This is a very active and mobile dog, so before starting any activity, you need to give your pet plenty of time to run around for at least an hour, or even better, come up with a game together.
Under no circumstances should you abuse the good nature of this dog. You can’t shout at her, much less hit her, otherwise, instead of a royal wolf, you will grow up a hunched creature with a sad look. For the training process to go well, you first need to choose a name for the puppy. Nicknames for the Husky dog breed should match it, beautiful and bright. For a male dog, the nicknames Cupid, Buran, Silver, Thor are good. For a female dog, you can choose a more gentle and beautiful name: Runa, Aurora, Laska, Tessa.
How to choose a puppy
The breed is common and purchasing a puppy will not be difficult. This can be done in an official nursery or from a private person; the second option does not guarantee the health, purebred and adequacy of the pet. A good breeder will provide the necessary package of documents, tell you about the breed line, the advantages and disadvantages of the parents, and their diseases. He will help you decide on the choice of a puppy and give recommendations on care and maintenance.
Before buying a dog, you need to choose the gender of your future pet. As a rule, bitches are more docile, calmer, and can bear offspring. Males are stronger, more resilient, but too energetic
It is also worth paying attention to the class of the puppy, it not only determines the cost of the animal, but also its future career
There are three classes of dogs:
- Pet class - the cheapest dogs that have all the necessary documents, but have minor flaws that do not prevent them from being pets;
- Breeding class – puppies with ideal external parameters, fully comply with standards, suitable for breeding;
- Show class - the offspring of champions, prize-winners of exhibitions, with ideal external parameters, their career is exhibition.
Husky puppies look like cute bear cubs. They will be playful and curious. Healthy pets always look neat and have no obvious defects or deviations from the standard. The cost of a dog directly depends on its class. So, a pet without a pedigree can be purchased for 7-10 thousand rubles, but a show-class puppy will cost 70-120 thousand rubles.
Huskies will make good pets, stately, beautiful and positive. They will fill the emptiness in the house with their cheerful disposition. But caring for the puppy will fall on the shoulders of all household members, so the decision must be made jointly.
Character
Huskies are sled dogs that have lived side by side with people for centuries. This made them capable of dialogue and real, sincere friendship. Northerners are friendly towards strangers and will not be able to act as a security guard.
Huskies have a special affection for children. They love outdoor games and are always ready to cuddle. These dogs make excellent nannies: they will never harm a child and will take care of his safety. Huskies are not prone to zoo aggression. They love to communicate with their relatives and get along well with cats, especially if they grow up together.
Sled breeds are distinguished by their intelligence and intelligence. The ancestors of modern breeds more than once had to make independent decisions during long transitions: survival depended on it. Their descendants have inherited a lively mind and often show stubbornness.
Husky is an active, cheerful breed. They love long walks with their owner and will happily support the game. Husky is suitable for sports owners who will take the animal for a run or bike ride.
Why do people choose mixed breeds as pets?
There are several main reasons why dog lovers buy mixed-bred huskies:
- Breed mixes are cheaper. This is where a person’s inherent desire to save money on buying a puppy comes into play.
- It is a misconception that half-breeds are easier to care for, while purebred dogs are difficult to maintain.
- The belief that the husky mix is more fully consistent with the tasks assigned to a pet (protection, assistance in hunting).
- The desire to have an exotic (not like everyone else) pet. As a result of mixed crossings, puppies with an original exterior are obtained.
- Mixed-breed puppies are less sensitive to genetic pathologies that are inherent in their purebred parents. Mixed offspring are considered healthier.
How to care?
It was already mentioned above that representatives of this northern breed are undemanding in matters of care. However, this does not mean that you won’t have to look after them at all. Still, the owner will need to take certain actions to ensure that the animal remains clean and healthy. Let's look at how to care for a husky.
The coat of these dogs requires care. It needs to be combed throughout the entire molting period. Wash your dog as needed. Brush the fur periodically to prevent it from becoming tangled or tangled, especially if you have a long-haired cat.
Monitor the condition of your dog's teeth. You need to clean them every day with a special paste. It is advisable to buy special bones and toys for your husky, sold in pet stores. With the help of these things, animals will brush their teeth.
Don't forget to trim your dog's nails. It is advisable to do this at least once a month
Trimmed nails will make the husky safer for both his family and himself.
It is very important to provide eye care for dogs of any age. Wipe your eyes with a damp swab from time to time to remove any discharge that appears.
This should be done as needed. Always examine your dog’s eyes in order to notice the onset of inflammatory processes, which must be dealt with in a timely manner. If you notice redness, green or yellow discharge from the eyes, it is best to contact your veterinarian.
You should also clean your dog's ears. This should be done as needed. Inspect them for injuries and damage, as well as infections and contamination.
Veterinarians strongly recommend against bathing Huskies too often. In most cases, owners wash these dogs only on special occasions. This can happen no more than once a year. These dogs do not need regular haircuts.
Wolfdog of Saarloos
The ancestors of the Saarloos wolfdog are German shepherds and wolves. This is an unusually intelligent companion that becomes strongly attached to its owners. However, high intelligence can also be considered a disadvantage: these dogs can try to dominate their owners, so they are not suitable for beginners. Due to their independence, representatives of the breeds are often used as rescuers and guide dogs.
An interesting feature: Saarloos dogs cannot bark, they only howl like wolves
Aries - Alabai
A true comrade in arms: he won’t let the enemy near, and will hide behind his partner’s back only to suddenly jump out at the right moment and bite everyone. A dog full of strength, courage and self-esteem. And truly asinine stubbornness: if an alabai decides something, then so be it. Those who want to argue must first move seventy kilograms of Alabai flesh, from the tip of the fang to the tip of the tail, created specifically to crush ferocious wolves. So you're saying there are no takers? Hm. Alabai thought so. The Aries young lady too.
How to choose a puppy
The character and individual characteristics of the breed appear at 4 months of age. It is at this time that it is recommended to buy pets.
It is almost impossible to choose the best puppy, as they change as they grow. If the goal is to buy a husky to participate in exhibitions, only experienced dog breeders can help in choosing.
Advantages of buying a Husky puppy and care details:
the baby will easily adapt to the lifestyle of his owners; increased attention to yourself will allow you to better know his inner world; Husky puppies quickly learn the rules of behavior; Babies require increased attention and you need to spend a lot of time playing with them.
If you buy an adult dog, then this moment has its advantages:
- established character;
- trained in rules of conduct;
- surprises in terms of interior damage are excluded.
The cost of puppies depends on how purebred the husky is. Purchasing purposes also influence the price.
- Pet - class is not suitable for participation in exhibitions, but will be a good friend. Such dogs are sold without a pedigree and have some distinctive characteristics from the breed standard. Puppies cost from 20,000 rubles.
- Breed class puppies are sold with good pedigree and fully comply with the standard. The price starts from 30,000 rubles.
- Show class is the most expensive. The starting price for show-class huskies is 50,000 rubles. Puppies have high characteristics, both in appearance and in the achievements of their parents.
