| Pretty dog. But, to start with tail and long coat both disqualifications. As for structure, need a stacked picture to assess that. But, I am not particularly knowledgeable in structure beyond gross faults. Sorry.

| How big is she, she has a very similar build as squirt (before she got fat) |

| She’s 24inches to the shoulder and around 27 kg, she’s not over weight though. And it’s very hard to keep weight on her, we bought her as a Siberian husky but I think she’s part wolf dog or 1/4 wolf dog as I saw her mum KC papers but not dads and I saw her dad and he looked a lot like a sib/wolf dog. And she shows a lot of wolf dog characteristics like she will stalk and kill deer, also when she had her litter of pup she injured a squirrel and bought it back for the pups to “kill” and she also regurgitated her food for them. I’ve never had a DNA test though, what do you think? |

| I do not see wolf dog in her. She is, however, to tall for Siberian husky standard for female (21"maximum height of I remember correctly). That last pic is still not a property stacked picture. But, it does seem like her legs are short for her body and she may be a truffle long in body. Also in this picture, she appears to be come hocked. Do her feet always splay outwards? |

| Here's a video from page 3 or 4 of this thread that shows how to properly stack a dog.

Also, if you read the whole thread from behind to end, paying particular attention to posts from huskymom09, you'll find lots of great information. |

| My big guy looks like he was put together out of spare parts and a collection of glaring faults. Way over standard for height. Wooly coat. Snap tail. Body way to long and legs too short. No neck.
But, he has a beautiful stop, powerful angulation in his back legs.
And most important? A super sweet disposition and a mischievous, playful personality. |

| Maybe she’s a malamute cross husky? Or do you think she’s just a big husky ? Either way she’s so special to me |

| Build wise she looks alot like squirt and squirts mom. She was pure sibe had papers but not a very well bred sibe. Had the longish body shorter legs. Anyway unless your into dog shows it really doesnt matter.
When spider went to the vet last night she weighed 51lbs, and height and length she is the same size as my 96lb german shepherd so maybe its just her coat making her proportions seem off. |

| Maybe, the lady who had the litter did say her mum and dad was KC so maybe she is a pure sib just bad breeding like you said. |

| Spider has 1 thats ice blue and one thats wolf yellow. It helps with passing her off as a badly bred husky |

| Bi-eyes and Parti-eyes are just part of the Husky breed, therefore not held against them by judges. Eye set and eye shape are what judges look at. |
