Hmm I mean he kind of looks wolfy but so do sable GSD's... His muzzle doesn't seem nearly long enough for wolf, maybe chow or Akita I can kind of see.
I am not familiar with many other sled dogs though since I can't own one where I live right now.

I really hope those rescues aren't refusing him because they think he's a wolfdog, he has no characteristics of one. Wolfdogs are really tall, narrow, and slender, this dog looks short and built like a bulldozer.
I also think he's mixed with some northern breed, but I don't know what else. He's really cool looking though! What's his temperament like? What about prey drive? |

Prey drive. Yeah. No small furries or feathers.
He's submissive with humans though. Very nice. Food aggressive (to other animals, not sure about humans, I ain't goin' there!) and even dog aggressive when food's not involved. We're finding him a rescue because I am not qualified to place him and I am not ashamed to say that The Northern breed people are much more qualified (due to small animal...err...destruction) and they'll board him while we search for a responsible place for him.

One reason I probably won't ever be able to own a Mal, due to my love of small dogs(I know blasphemy on this forum right?
) and cats so I will just admire them from afar!Hope he finds a good home!

![]() This picture was just sent me to by a family member when I inquired about a certain breed combination that I knew they'd had a few years ago. Take a guess. the pic is NOT their dog but this is one remarkably similar.
