The Alaskan Malamute is a large breed of domestic dog
originally bred for use as an Alaskan sled dog and is often
mistaken for a Siberian Husky. The coat is a dense double
northern dog coat.
According to the American Kennel Club, the primary criterion
for judging the Malamute is its function to pull heavy freight
as a sled dog. As many an owner has found out, the pulling
power of a Malamute is tremendous.
The Siberian Husky is a medium-size, dense-coat working dog
breed that originated in eastern Siberia. It is recognizable by
its thickly-furred double coat, sickle tail, erect triangular
ears and distinctive markings. An active, energetic and
resilient breed whose ancestors came from the extremely cold
and harsh environment of the Siberian Arctic, it was imported
into Alaska during the Nome Gold Rush and spread from there
into the United States and Canada, initially as a sled dog. It
rapidly acquired the status of a family pet and a show-dog.
