Yeah I could almost see it as a husky with a really blocky muzzle -- however, if ya look closely at the tail you can see where the joints curl... So if that guy wasn't tired or slightly bored he'd probably be carrying it over his back in a "waving plume", which is a DQ for sibes if I remember right.
It doesn't really matter, as I see it is listed as a siberian on allpets' pet encyclopedia... Iunno, looks like a Mal to me.
Either way, it's a gorgeous color.
