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.

DNA test is pretty much the only sure way to tell.

It's harder to tell as puppies. Mals are generally larger and furrier than huskies and their ears tend to be set further apart. Can't wait to see pics!

Yeah I noticed that in trying to research but females dont look to much diffrent all I notuiced is her ears are still floppy at 10 weeks and ive read up that malamutes can take up till 6-9 months for ears to be up since they are usually down teething :\

another big difference between malamutes and huskies is that huskies can have blue eyes and malamutes do not. malamutes also weigh considerably more as adults than huskies

as a malamute owner I will post Smile
First of all the fluffy part.

Like huskies, mals have regular coat and wooly. Their hair feels different than a husky.

and the ear thing.
My mals ears went up and 14 weeks.

The weight for a malamute is 65-85 pounds. My malamute maggie is 75 pounds.

Malamutes usually have a box head. I say dog like and a shorter snout then a husky.
