| I have picked up a puppy from a pretty shady breeder who claimed that Buran was a red and white Siberian Husky, whatever he is, I will love him all the same, but I am curious if anyone can see any signs that he may be a mix of something else? So far I've noticed his floppy ears that now (at 8 weeks) are trying to stand up and his odd mask that doesn't have very prominent eyebrows like many other huskies. He also has a pretty short coat that is extremely soft. Anyone's input would be much appreciated! thanks! Here are some pictures I've taken over the past few weeks. Sorry for the sideway-ness of the last few. https://s834.photobucket.com/user/stayshabob/library/Buran?sort=3&page=1 Okay someone please tell me this link works.

| Lots of people ask if he's part Aussie, but his coat is just so short, and it seems like his ears are going to stick straight up any day now. |

| I agree he might be part aussie but they have different fur when pups. My little pup was born in a shelter from a husky mom and i was told a malamute dad... and one of his ears flopped. He was 8 wks when I got him, over a week later his ears stood up. So maybe your lil one is full husky, you'll never really know. He's adorable either way! |

| He's a cutie! Please know though that even if his ears do stand that doesn't mean he is pure husky. What makes me think he may be a mix -his coat and markings. |

| Thank you Jill, I just thought that when his ears stick up he looks a lot more husky-like (they do when he is outside) I'm pretty sure he isn't pure though. Would you say that his mask is completely uncommon in huskies? I don't think I've ever seen a puppy with a mask like his, but then again, I'm not sure if they change while they grow. |

| masks do change as they age. Brooks (my 2 yr old husky) used to have a FULL mask, down onto her nose! But now it has come up and under her eyes is white/tan now (see my pic on left). So it'll be fun to watch this guy grow up |

| Masks come in all shapes', color's and size's....some change as they get older, some don't. So it's really hard to say whether or not he is pure depending on his mask. |

| That's crazy that the masks can change so much! Does he look like a husky at all? To anyone? Hahaha |

| For me it's not just the floppy ears, and I rarely look at a mask on a puppy knowing how much they change as they mature....it's more the overall shape of the eyes and head. The shape of the head looks more aussie than husky. |

| I don't think he looks much like a husky.... He's adorable! But I don't see much siberian in him at all.... |

| For me, its not the markings, but more the shape of the head and placement of ears that makes me think he's more aussie than anything. But he's certainly adorable! |

| I disagree, I think he probably has some husky in him, he has the same stout legs and feet my two have or had as puppies! I don't believe him to be full husky, but who cares one thing I do see is ADORABLE!!! |
