Breed standard
Hi! I've had my gal for some months now and people always ask whether she is a husky...
She is a 2,5 year old purebred malamute, ca 25 kg. Bringing her up +4 kg, focusing on also building muscle is a goal as she is a bit skinny.
I am wondering how she fits the breed standard. Both proportions in body and head. Personally I think she is very malamute in her face, but she is a bit too narrow at her chest and her ears are 'too big'.
Also, this is all summer coat - she has no undercoat now. It fascinates me how well adapted she is to the summer, as I don't think I've seen any malamute with this short/thin summer coat.
She is a sweet, clever girl and I am considering showing her for the experience (also participating in other breed specific tests, backpack and pulk pulling).
