Is this a new breed of dog?

It's not a new breed it's a mongrel nothing more nothing less and if he thinks a heavier Malinois is going to run further he's mistaken, in my opinion very irresponsible.

it will be very interesting to see how your pup turns out,as in looks.i wish you every success in your breeding,and will be looking in, each week to see if there is any changes.the mum,ivy is a lovey dog and gorgeous brown eyes.and dad tikaani has very beautiful markings.good luck and will log in soon..mel

Disgusting! Why do people like to think they can play god with other creatures lives? I agree with Mr Rockey's every word.

I wonder what the breeders of mum and dad think of your new "invention"! Just a though, but "breeding programme" what will the owner do breed the Husky out or the Malinois?

I am speechless. You take a perfectly formed working breed and mix it with something that has NO civil or defense abilities like the working Malinois. Maybe the universe was hinting to STOP if they were dying? Pedigree Malinois already have incredible speed, agility, stamina that far exceeds other breeds especially the husky (that is unless he is planning to sled race his new mongrels) What an insult to the dog world I hope no one sells you any more beautiful malinois so you can go ruin them by crossbreeding. By the way it is in no way a new breed ... and no more spectacular then the thousands of random dogs in the pounds everywhere.

Gee the puppy does look like a little fatty!!! Judging by his website, seems the pup got all of the Mastiff's, Rotti's and Lab's food, because they sure look emaciated!!! Why would anyone think that a Siberian has more stamina than a Malinois??

Firstly, there is no problem with these two breeds producing pups. It doesn't happen much because most people have no interest in mating together two breeds that have little in common. The Siberian husky has absolutely no guarding instinct. so who in the world of Security dogs would be so desperate to cross in a breed like that with the hope of producing the ultimate guard dog? It really doesn't add up does it. Siberian huskies also have a very strong prey drive, hence they are not exercised off of the lead. So potentially this man could be right, because when he lets it loose it will still be running in a weeks time.... In the other direction! I was under the impression that security dogs are not unleashed until they have a target? Or are they dispatched 20 miles away with a map/GPS and told to come back with a criminal the next day?! Are we to believe that a malinois can't run a few hundred yards!

Daren, firstly huskies do not make good guard dogs at all and no matter how well trained they are the day will come when instinct kicks in & your dog will run off. If your Malinois dosn't have enough stamina then there is something seriously wrong with your breeding stock.

Just what the world needs - more crossbred pups! This bloke has to be kidding...very irresponsible to say the least. You don't have a new breed mate, that takes generations and generations of litters all with the same predictable characteristics, not just one living pup from goodness knows how many ill-advised matings!

All I can say is wow. As one person already stated on here...it takes generations of selective breeding to create a "breed", not one cross. I have no problem with crossbreeding, it brings hybrid vigor into play. Having said that, why would anyone think that a huskie cross would be an improvement to the malinois? Huskies are probably the wussiest dogs I have ever worked with. They have an extremely low titration rates. They aren't near as intelligent as the mal. They don't have the speed. Their coat might be an asset in Alaska, but anywhere else (especially the Middle East or the Southwest where these dogs are extremely important assets) it would be a major problem. I've seen short-coated dogs overheat; how long do you think a double-coated dog would last? A person on here was correct in assuming that dogs aren't released off-leash for more than short distances. They still require a huge amount of stamina. On that note, if anyone has worked with a mal for any length of time, they know those dogs will work themselves into the ground for the right person.

yea all right if this dog is going to be a mistake, dont you think Darren will find this out in his own time. i think the rest of you need to clear off. only coz other people have tried this and it aint been very sucessful who's to say this dog wont be a sucess. i wish Darren the best with the dog.
