Alaskan Huskies and Alsations

An alaskan husky is generally a spitz-type dog, but it is not a particular breed but rather a type of dog, classified primarily by its purpose, which is a sled dog. Alaskan huskies are the preferred type for dog sled racing championships.

The Alsation, or German Shepherd, originated in Germany towards the end of the nineteenth century. It is a working dog which was originally used for herding and guarding sheep. They are one of the most commonly registered breeds around the world, mainly due to its loyalty and protectiveness.
