This is Wonder Woman.  She's only been with us a couple of months and is the 1 of 2 for our first pair of Alaskan Huskies.









Here is miss Wonder Woman (pardon the blurry...it was quite the day), working on her line out (the large sled dog kennel she came from has handlers hold the dogs in a line out, so she never learned)

She looks right at home in that classroom. What a great opportunity to teach kids.

May I ask how to tell the different between Alaskan Husky and Siberian Husky apart from their coat color/ marking?

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Alaskan Husky is a mixed breed dog bred specifically for sledding. Seeking out characteristics for speed, endurance, cold tolerance etc.

That's pretty close to it. They're the athletes of the racing world. With no breed standard however, there is very little consistency across the board or even in a lot of lines once you move away from the first two litters that have come from a pair. They tend to be less neurotic (not sure if that's the right word) than Siberians in my experience, less finicky about food, but that doesn't mean that there aren't ones that aren't more spazzy than our sibes out there.

For our guys, it means that Wonder Woman and Audie got to transition into a house with Sibes off lead in the house 24/7 when they came to live with us. I wouldn't trust either of them off lead in an unfenced area at this point, but they've also only been with us for a year and I'm a firm believer in dogs not belonging off lead regardless of breed unless you can maintain control over them verbally at all times. Its a matter of safety.
