Andy Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 LOL Back to the Topic Sarah (Sarahjng. . . not Saz) Do you have a decent photo of Bears head from the front on. Your avatar pic of him as a puppy shows displaced ears as if he's part Malamute but puppy pics aren't reliable. If he is part Mal that would explain the extra poundage.

luda kuca Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 my male husky weight 23kg at age of 8 months, and now he weight 27kg at the age of 15 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahjng Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 I did wonder about that, I met the mum and dad, all his littermates, they all looked like huskys, I guess he could be a throwback, or just some kind of weird husky yeti cross lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 He might have had Mal in him several generations back Which would account for the extra size, but he looks far more Husky than Mal Malaki and Bear, for comparison. and the original image if you wanna see just how big they can get.

sarahjng Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 First, OMG he/she is gorgeous ! And no bear is no where near that big, (thank God) but I do think there's a touch of mal there, so I guess the best thing to do is ignore the standard and as long as he's healthy, don't worry.

sarahjng Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Odin's 113.5lb ARGH. That's it, he's on bread an dripping from now on and I'm going to stand him in the corner with bricks on his head. How in the world do you simply cope with the size of him ? I mean, if he decides he's lying down, your not getting him up without a block and tackle ! Hang on, haven't you got like 3 dog's, are they all like that ? (He is a malamute right ?)

Elyse Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Aww...Malaki's so handsome! And Bear, judging by that picture, may be a wooly husky crossed with possibly a Mal? Mine is 77 pounds, and I think he's part Mal (may not be 1/2, he generally looks more husky than Mal). He's too stocky to be a purebred Sibe, his chest is too deep, body is too long, muzzle too long, poorly set tail (too curly+bushy) etc. Although, that all may be a result from poor breeding, now that I see just how bad his general health is, these days. His earset: Typical trotting gait (usually his tail is tightly curled against his back, though): And MANY pictures here of him, showing him in different poses, etc: http://canuckzd.deviantart.com/gallery/10294229 It doesn't bother me he may be a mix, or that he's not within the standard. It's just all his health problems that bother me. The only way you can be sure is genetic testing...but even I'm iffy on those. Have heard some stories where they are completely wrong - even after you've dropped $140. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLuka Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Bexley is 60lbs where Luka is like 50lbs. Just varies and they're both not overweight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJS Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) Definitely something "Mally" there. But agree, as long as he's healthy, that's the main thing. I've stopped going off breed standards, because Kodi doesn't match the Mal standard, and he's pure Mal... Here's Kodiak... Kodi is 29 inches from floor to shoulder, and weighs in at approx 124lbs.... And he's still a pup (14 months) Edited June 20, 2013 by RJS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 I always wanted to ask if Bear is half malamute because the way he looks. I do think he has a bit of Mal in him, which explains his size and weight... although I don't understand all these pounds measurements... Can somebody translate that into kilograms please LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only around 20-25 kilos! I don't see a lot of huskies every day always thought Dime is fairly large but turns out for a male he's actually somewhat smaller than average. He's also quite short too.. I think the last time I checked he's about 35 centimeters from the ground up to the withers. My neighbor's husky Shasta--also known as "Shazz" or "Saz" -- is at least 5 centimeters taller than Dime and he's only 14 months old 15 kilos wow that's a great achievement lost 2 kilos two days ago but gained another kilo today would you mind sharing some secret tips LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahjng Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 No secret, lol I just got a dog that needs me to walk faster and further, maybe I could market that as a diet, spend a week at camp husky, 24 hour a day personal husky trainer with no time to rest, lots of ball and running games all the boiled chicken you can eat, we could make a fortune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
