[i]I Just recently got a puppy I was told shes siberian and a mix but they didnt know what but the more and more I look at her she looks more like a malamute... shes only 11 weeks now so still hard to tell but if anyone knows a great way to tell the diffrence can you help? Ill post a picture later tonight as iam at work

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

ahh really they are that close in traits ey either way both beautiful dogs thanks so much for the reply

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
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.
