Alaskan Malamute, Alaskan Klee Klai or Siberian Husky?

Question

I have worked with siberian huskies before and taken care of them for other owners. Now I want a puppy of my own. I live in a townhome where i cant have a really big dog as siberian huskies do grow large. Which dog is the best for me? I can take care of its excersise etc. Also, do alaskan klee klais and alaskan malamutes have an option of being bi - eyed. Im just kind of curious to know?

Answer 1

The first thing to do would be to check what the weight limit is at your place to narrow the list down. A Husky may fall within the limit, but Malamutes get huge so they most likely will not be an option. Malamutes have brown eyes only, but I'm not sure about Klee Kais. Just FYI: Klee Kais are really rare so you may be on a waiting list for a while for one of those, but if you really want one it won't be an issue.

Answer 2

Huskies have a lighter build and and are bred to pull sleds over long distances at a brisk pace. Malamutes are heavier boned and bred to pull heavier loads at a slower pace. Of the two breeds, I'd pick a Malamute, but honestly, both breeds shed too much for my taste.

Answer 3

Malamutes are bigger than huskies. They are all going to have about the same breed traits chances are. Make sure you can handle these dogs as they all can tend to be high maintenance. A lot of these types of dogs especially huskies end up in the local shelter I work in because they are hard to handle.

Answer 4

i don't know anything about alaskan klee klais but i do know that alaskan malamutes do grow to be very big..... but they are amazing dogs to have as pets..



hope this helps

Answer 5

Malamutes are generally brown eyed, but I guess a genetic defect could cause a dog to have to different color eyes. Here is a site that talks about the AKK. Sorry its so long.
