Selecting a Siberian Husky: Criteria for Identification

(1) Body Structure and Skeleton:
When evaluating a Siberian Husky, consider its body structure and skeleton.

(2) Foreign Bloodline Certification:
Check for a foreign bloodline certification for the puppy’s sire or dam. This information can be obtained from the pedigree. It indicates whether the Husky is imported.

(3) Champion Lineage:
Determine if the puppy’s sire or dam is a champion or if both have champion lineage. Look for “CH” before the names, indicating championship. Dogs with champion lineage are often more expensive due to the owner’s dedication to care and participation in competitions. Note that within the same litter, there may be variations in qualifications, even for descendants of champion dogs.

(4) Facial Markings (“Fire” on the Face):
Evaluate the presence of facial markings, often referred to as having “fire” on the face. Some sellers use this term to enhance the dog’s image, but it’s not a recognized term abroad. Selecting a dog with such markings is a matter of personal preference. Pay attention to the clarity and correctness of the markings. While the presence or absence of facial markings may affect the price slightly, it shouldn’t be a sole reason for a higher price.

(5) Eye Color:
Siberian Huskies can have blue, brown, or one blue and one brown eye. Eye color is a personal preference and doesn’t significantly impact the price.

(6) Coat Color:
Siberian Huskies come in a wide range of coat colors, including white, red, gray, brown, and black. There are even patterns resembling cow-like spots. The choice of coat color is purely based on personal preference and doesn’t have a significant impact on the price.
