How to choose Husky

How to adopt Huskies? The Husky is a medium-sized working dog. It moves quickly and has a light and gentle pace. His thick and rich body, erect ears, and brushed tail reveal his square origin. His steps need to be calm and light, showing his true nature. Original function - transporting light goods over long distances.

How to choose Husky 1

The proportions of a Husky's body should reflect the balance of his needs for strength, speed, and endurance. The male Husky needs to be healthy but not rough, and the female Husky needs to be strong but not too weak in structure. Under normal circumstances, we do not ask them to transport heavy goods.

Shoulder height: male dogs 53~60 cm; female dogs 51~56 cm;

Body weight: 20-27 kg for male dogs; 16-23 kg for female dogs; height and body weight should be based on the ratio, and the body (shoulders to tail root) should be slightly longer than shoulder height;

Disqualification: Anything less than half an inch (1.27CM) above or missing the foot scale will be disqualified. The male dog is 23.5 inches taller at the withers; the female dog is 22 inches taller. (The height range mentioned in the article does not apply to dogs younger than 12 months old.)

Head: Showed to be very sharp yet harmonious, interested in everything, even naughty. The eyes are almond-shaped, moderately set and slightly slanted. The color of the eyes can be brown, blue, or even the eyes are of different colors. The head is of medium size and in proportion to the body. The top of the head is slightly rounded and gradually becomes vertical from the widest point toward the eyes.

The ears are of medium size, triangular in shape, standing erect on the top of the head. The ears should be thick and hairy, arched on the back, and erect healthily, and the tips of the ears should be obtuse.

Breath: The distance from the stop (the transition point of the bridge of the nose between the eyes) to the tip of the nose (the breath) must be the distance from the stop to the occiput. Moderately wide, gradually tapering toward the nose, neither completely square nor pointed.

Nose: The gray fur color is a black nose, the red fur color is a pig liver color nose, and the white fur color is a flesh-colored nose. Snow nose can be delivered.

How to look at a purebred Husky

The teeth should be very healthy, with a fried bite, with the base teeth set back but touching the inner edges of the surface teeth. Horizontal gnashing of teeth is allowed, but not optional. Improper coupling or broken teeth are serious faults. It is best if the dentition is complete, and the lack of molars or small molars is the most critical fault.

Neck: medium long, erect when standingThe head is held high, the shoulders are strong and the neck is excessively arched. When trotting, the neck will move the head forward.

Chest: Deep and strong, but not too wide. The deepest part of the chest is almost to the elbow joint. The ribs extend past the spine and are flattened on the sides to allow for freedom of movement.

Back: The topline is straight and healthy from shoulders to arms, of moderate length, and not loose or too long.

Waist: It needs to be thick, narrower than the ribs, and tucked in gently. Arms: Askew from the spine, not right angles.

Tail: The tail is brush-shaped, like a fox's tail, and is located a little below the topline. When the dog is betting, the tail forms an elegant sickle shape. When the tail is raised, it should not be curled to either side of the body or on the back. When resting, it is in the shape of a mop. The hair on the tail is of medium length, whether it is the root, middle or tail, it is the same length and looks like a round brush.

Pioneer:

Shoulders: The shoulders have a good tilt. The upper arms tilt from the shoulder position to the elbow, and must not be perpendicular to the ground. Muscles and ligaments tightly wrap the shoulders and sternum, allowing them to develop well.

Forelimbs: When standing and looking forward, the legs must be parallel and of appropriate width, standing straight. The elbows depend only on the body shape and must not be splayed outward or inwards. Viewed from the side, the foot joints are slightly tilted, healthy and elastic. Bone mass is important but it cannot be too thick. The height from the elbow to the ground is probably greater than the distance from the elbow to the shoulder. Dewclaws may be removed.

Hind: When the dog is standing and viewed from the rear, the hind legs are parallel and well spaced. The upper leg muscles are developed and powerful, and the promotion and traction of the ideal balance is achieved through the angles of the posterior knee joint and ankle joint. A good angle should produce obvious distortion between the knee joint and the hock joint; a good arc should be based on the length of the left and right legs, and the hock joint should be short and low.
