There are various indications if your dog is a pure bred Alaskan Malamute. There is standard against which the characteristics official, pure bred Malamutes are evaluated. Pure bred malamutes can first be judged by their long guard hair, and thick undercoat. Malamutes are known to have a shedding period about twice a year. They have dark eyes and are very active. They should not be confused with other Alaskan breeds that can equally pilot sleighs along the ice.
