Yakutian Laika - Primitive breed Like Siberian Husky puppies, IKC Registered

Yakutian Laika is a very old breed of dogs from a cold part of Russia, which was destroyed by the communist government during the communist period because it gave citizens the opportunity to travel on sleighs (dogs of this breed lived close to Alaska) and escape from the country. After the fall of communism, dog lovers recreated this beautiful breed. Over 8 years ago I imported the first dogs of this breed from Russia and Poland, and 5 years ago the first litter was born.They are closely related to Samoyeds and Huskies. Yakutian Laikas have a calm nature, are delicate and sensitive, obedient, although when unattended they may run away and attack sheep. They get along well with other dogs, as well as cats. They are very intelligent, so they are suitable for agility. Parents have been tested (hips, eyes, hearing) with normal results.
