Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| He deffinately looks to be going that Way. Does he have a cream or whitish coloured undercoat? Im not sure whether his stockings would have much to do with him 'not' being an agouti but maybe someone who shows huskies will have a better idea about those... |

| Is he a pure bred or a mix?
Looks like maybe some GSD characteristics, including color.
The first pic of the prancing is adorable...very gazelle or deer like. |

| his undercoat is cream colored. He is a pure bred siberian husky. This is his father: mother: She also has a banded coat but I don't think that she is an agouti. But maybe she has the genes. It's funny that you said he has GSD characteristics, because I always get asked if he is a husky GSD mix or a GSD. |

| Yes, he is indeed a momma's boy. Yes, I know the site and I'm trying to figure his coat out. |

this person is in germany.. the gene pools can be quite different between countries. Here's one that is in New Zealand.. he is an aussie import but still... you can see the difference http://www.pawtrax.co.nz/Index.asp?ID=31 |

| Those racing lines can definitely look a lot different then your typical Siberian. I think they're all probably purebred. I'm sure Ceara will chime in soon with her opinion |

| He looks agouti to me, but keep in mind they can change a lot from this age. My pup was a light tan/buff at this stage, but is now a grey. I disagree that the mom looks mixed. I think she looks like full sibe, I think if you were to somehow 'paint' on traditional markings, she would look much more siberian like. I think the dark face can throw things off a bit, but to me her basic face shape looks siberian. Also, her ears are very widely set and large, so that combined with her coloring can mislead to a shepherd like appearance. I could be way off, but that's my opinion. In any case he's a cutie! |

| You know he looks like a belgian shepherd malinois. My trainer has one, and it looks just like your Inuk. Especially because of the long skinny nose. I'm not saying that's what he is...just looks similar. |
