Import German Shepherd & Siberian Husky's
| Siberian Husky Information page |
| Siberians are relatively easy keepers, but their thick coats require weekly rushing. New owners should be prepared to provide an outlet for exercise instincts are strong, so Siberians should be supervised around small animals in and around the home. Size and Proportion Male Siberians should weigh 45 to 60 pounds and female Siberians should weigh between 35 to 50 pounds. Head Siberians Huskies should have a medium-sized head and medium-length neck. These standards are described for optimal endurance. The well- proportioned head and neck help the Siberian maintain proper balance and control over the movement of his shoulders and front legs. Ears The Siberian husky standard established by the AKC calls for a well-furred ear, which protects it from the Arctic cold. The Siberian’s smaller ear, compared with the German Shepherd dog’s large ear, for example, has less surface area, making it less vulnerable to the cold. The erect ear, which allows fresh air and sunlight to enter, keeps the interior dry, and makes it less susceptible to infection. Eyes The frontal bones and the cheekbones of the canine head offer the most protection to an almond-shaped eye, which fits nicely into the canine skull. The standard for the Siberian Husky calls for the diamond-shaped eye, the eye shape found most frequently among wild canines. The official description of the Siberian is one of the few AKC breed standards that allows for a blue eye color. Brown eyes, blue, or part-colored eyes (one eye of each color) are all acceptable according to the Siberian standard. Muzzle The medium length of the Siberian muzzle describes a dog without excessive or exaggerated facial features. A long or very deep muzzle, like the Wolfhound's of the Saluki', appears regal, impressive, and aloof. A shortened muzzle, like the Boxer's or the Bulldog's, doesn't properly warm incoming frigid air and will not support the ease of breathing necessary for load pulling over long distances. Therefore, the Siberian’s medium-length muzzle contributes to his performance capabilities while keeping his expression "friendly, interested, and even mischievous" but not at all pompous or removed. Neck, Back and Body The Siberian Husky should carry his neck slightly forward when he is moving, propelling him in the direction of travel. When he moves, his head should not bob up and down, which wastes energy. For an endurance dog, a deep chest is critically important, because it houses the dog's hard-working heart and lungs. The proper depth of chest must be maintained well back along the dog's body and not sweep upward in front of the loin too quickly, or the shortened chest will diminish the capacity of the heart and lungs. Although a broad chest also provides comfortable housing for the heart and lungs, it will impede the full follow-through of the front legs and inhibit the free-flowing gait required for long-distance travel. The standard for the Siberian Husky denotes a deep chest with ribs well-sprung but flat on the sides. A Siberian with a "barrel chest" will not exhibit proper gait because his broad chest will prevent his front legs from achieving full range of motion. The Siberians back should appear level but will actually be slightly higher at the withers than at the croup but with another slight rise at the croup. These tiny rises in the spine add strength to those parts of the spine where the front and the rear portions of the skeleton connect into it and help to deliver the momentum from the thrust of the rear leg muscles to the entire skeleton. Even with these slight rises in the top line of the dog, the visual impression of the Siberian back is that of a level top line that allows the transfer of momentum from the rear to the front of the dog to occur directly and efficiently in the line of travel. Tail The Siberian Husky tail should curl up onto its body or around itself. A medium-length brush of hair covers the tail. Excessive hair, or plumes, on the tail is not consistent with the rest of the Siberians moderately long coat. A well-tempered Siberian who runs efficiently will exhibit the desired tail set and carriage described in the standard. Indeed, the Siberian tail tells the tale of the performance capabilities of the entire dog. |
