  • Beautiful dog! What's the difference between a Malamute and a husky??

  • @LightingInvoker Thanks.

    Alaskan malamutes are bigger, stronger and more of an endurance dog/wolf. And they always have brown eyes.

    While huskies are smaller, skinnier, more agitated some might say hyperactive and they have blue eyes (at least one). A siberian husky comes the closest to a malamute but their is still a big difference.

    I prefer malamutes due to their calmer nature and those beautiful brown eyes.

  • Your malamute looks very cute! But..."suka" means "female dog" or "bitch" in russian :D

    One question - is it so difficult to train a good-mannered malamute?

  • @RuLooper Suka is Iniut for fast.

    Malamutes have a character of their own, and they are good-mannered from nature.

    But if you mean sit here and stay here for a while, then you will need to spend lots of time training.

    Tip: They will learn much quicker with treats, but in my case if you stop giving treats (as suggested by the dog school) she stops listening.

  • GORGEOUS GORGEOUS DOG

  • @LightingInvoker All of the things he said, but again, they Huskies are ALOT more hyper lol! I prefer the Huskies myself, but another big difference is, although the Malamutes are bigger and stronger, they are slower then a Husky, which is why Huskies were the dogs of choice to deliver the serum to Noem way back when. And they are just plain fun, but thats not to say that Malamutes arnt, I love them too haha! :P

  • huskies don't always have blue eyes, i had a husky she lasted 15 years, and she had brown eyes,

  • @nickdeclercq I'm a vet. There is nothing wrong with treats for training.

  • I've just got my first-ever Malamute, Alfie, he's five months old now. House training is taking a while, but obedience training has been pretty easy, he stays, comes when called, and sits. He's great with other dogs, really good-tempered and friendly with people. I've always had Newfoundlands before him, they're the most sweet-natured dogs in the world, but Aflie come close.

  • what a beautiful animal ! she has beautiful markings under her eyes !

  • @nickdeclercq My Malemute has Honey colored eyes and he's AKC registered. They don't always come in brown eyes :P

  • @0:42 wow I couldn't pull that epic dance spin thing off xD

  • @nickdeclercq We had a siberian husky with brown eyes.
