That's the disney version, loosely based on a true story. In reality the dogs were 13 Canadian Eskimo Dogs and they were abandoned when a Japanese Antarctic expedition got trapped in bad weather. The group came back a year later and found two of the dogs survived. Here's a link to the real story:

The husky rescues I work with are already trying to prepare for the influx of 9 month old puppies(the most common age for huskies to get dumped.) Thank Goodness Eskimo dogs are rare and unsuitable as a family pet!
