How to identify a purebred husky from a crossbreed?

In light of the active breeding of husky hybrids, it is extremely important for breeders when buying a puppy to have an understanding of how to distinguish a purebred dog from a mestizo. Mixing of breeds can occur both in one generation, and can be traced in several tribes, since some mating is not at all planned by the owner.

When buying a four-legged friend, you should pay attention to its cost. As a rule, mestizos will be much cheaper than purebred dogs. Sometimes such animals without pedigree can simply be offered as a gift. Such situations will help a potential buyer understand the situation. Mestizos, in the light of inheriting many traits from different parents, can stand out with a rather complex character. Therefore, the breeder is advised to observe the puppy he likes, as well as, if possible, to get acquainted with the parents of the animal.

However, only a genetic test can reliably determine that a pet is purebred., otherwise the buyer can focus on the external characteristics of the animal, as well as the documentation that the nursery will provide. The breeder should pay attention to the size of the animal, however, at an early age it will be quite difficult to determine if the dog meets the standards. Typically, a small puppy can grow into a large dog and vice versa.

As a guideline, one can consider the size of the animal's limbs, however, this factor can be purely individual.

The main features of the husky breed are the following.

  • Animals stand out among their relatives by their "voice". So, the breed does not bark, but howl. And this applies to all emotions - both positive and negative.
  • Not all mestizos will have an innate love for children, huskies are wonderful nannies, so they will try to accompany children everywhere, if there are any in the family.
  • Huskies are unlikely to be good guards, as for mestizos with outbred animals, as a rule, this instinct is more developed in them.
  • Purebred Siberian dogs do not have a specific smell. Since animals are self-cleaning the wool.
  • Since the breed is positioned as a sled dog, strong limbs will become a feature of such dogs. Mestizos may not possess such an exterior feature.
  • The main characteristic of the breed is its eye color. The husky is characterized by a mirror-blue color of the pupils.
