mydiamond Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Mackenzie River Husky?? I know they're not really a breed, but they're quite intriguing. Looks like a wooly with a Papillon's ears LOL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackenzie_River_husky some more pics: have any of you heard of this "husky" before?

HuskyMom09 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Funny how the page talks about preserving arctic freight dogs but with it's inappropriate coat and sparsely furred ears it seems the dog itself is lacking some of the necessary phenotype to survive arctic temperatures- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuskyGuerl Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Just looks like a breed crossed with another breed and they gave it a name lol cute though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny_Caity Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Cute! But I wish people would stop trying to pass crossbreeds off as pedigree, as if it makes them more 'special'! Every dog is special, mongrel or purebred, their blood makes no difference as long as they have a loving home! - Caity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BingBlaze n Skyla Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I've actually heard of these but not ever seen one , don't THINK they are a cross breed tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmscott Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 They are not cross bred but they are purpose bred. They are one of the many Husky breeds and were bred for working frieght not for the same purposes as Siberians were. Very cool breed. http://www.sleddogcentral.com/mackenzies2.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
