BingBlaze n Skyla Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 sorry about another question on tails but as ur huskies got older did u notice their tail get curlier? Blaze is nearly 16 months now and his tail has either got longer so it curls more or his curl has got tighter it seems 2 curl over n dangle on his side most ov the time when hes walking now and if its not on the side its deffinately touching his back - is he still growing at this age? (i thought he wudda stopped by now n just start 2 fill out instead) or is it just his tail? lol ill try and get a pic l8a so u can see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowSpirit Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Well at 16 months they are still growing and get mature :-) His tail is probably set high and that is becouse it is curlied up. It is a fault in the standard but it is not a problem at pet dogs who are not for shows and reproduction. Look here is a link with the analysys for the tail (and down the page there are other body parts of the Siberian analised by Alice Watt, Bart Miller and Vern Harvey): Tail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahNukka&Shadow Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yep I know exactly what you mean Nix, Nukka's has started doing this too, to the point where someone the other day didnt believe me when I said she was Sibe not Mal! Wereas I met up with her Nukka's brother Neo the other day and his is held proper straight almost too straight not the show standard sickle that it should be! So I think its litterally just down to individual dogs as to how their tail goes! We think their gorgeous and they think we are so alls well in our lives! LOL!

Arooroomom Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Nice link, snowspirit! As Cheyenne is getting older her tail is curling more too, hers used to be just straight, now she carries it over her closely to the "high set" pics on that website. Mishkas has been pretty curled since we got her. Guess they're still growing and changing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there´s part where is showing "correct & acceptable tails". To my eye three of the pictures are incorrect tails in huskies. (first three to the left) Siberians tail should always be beautiful and round like a sickle. Some showing type huskies are having almost straight tails which are pointing up a like torch. Here´s my dog Ruska in movement. Tail is not pointing straight like a torch. But isn´t too tight eighter. (I would be little bit tighter & rounder. And still fitting in breed standard. If tail is touching the back it´s too tight/ incorrect) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is correct your dog's tail set too, but theese are correct too: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
