Nicknames for husky dogs, unlike names for many other breeds, should not only be sonorous and beautiful, but also functional. Of course, if the name is chosen for the handsome Samoyed, who will spend his whole life traveling around various exhibitions and considering his own medals, then the nickname’s functionality is not so important.
However, huskies are not only a breed of dogs that is fashionable now, they are primarily working animals. They help on the hunt; they are harnessed to winter sleds. From ancient times they guard human northern villages, guard domestic deer. Several huskies cope with the bear, and alone this dog easily resists a couple of wolves. Of course, the nickname should reflect all the qualities of the breed, regardless of whether the city has an easy city life or if it is waiting for a full-time job in harnessing, hunting and guarding.
What are these dogs like?
The nicknames used are very different. For example, the most commonly used names for animals belonging to this group of breeds are Spark and Snow. Many people name the first name workers, harnessers or handsome men helping in the hunt, and the second name huskies and Samoyeds living in urban conditions.
Just like the nicknames of huskies are not similar, the animals themselves differ. Laika is a general term, the same as a shepherd. It includes all working breeds of dogs that have been bred by people for centuries in the forest zones of Asia, America and Europe, as well as in the northern regions, up to the coast of the Arctic Ocean.
Modern dog handlers divide them into groups:
- sledding;
- hunting;
- shepherd's;
- sports or sports and decorative.
Representatives of the first three are animals "busy with business." As a rule, they can be seen at exhibitions of hunting clubs, sledding competitions and other similar events.
The most common working breeds:
- Russian-European;
- East Siberian;
- West Siberian;
- Karelian-Finnish;
- Nenets reindeer herding.
Choosing the nicknames of huskies of these breeds, owners rarely ask questions of originality and beauty. Animals are usually called simply, comfortable in pronunciation and functionally.
Among the breeds that collect public enthusiasm and awards in the show rings, the most popular are:
Both of these varieties of huskies are far from infantile and can easily become good guards, shepherds or hunters. But their exceptional appearance led to the fact that animals are born mainly by citizens. Of course, the nicknames of the huskies of these breeds are completely different, both in sound and in meaning. The names of "show stars" and just companion dogs are also different.
What is the meaning of the nickname?
The value of the nicknames of huskies should directly reflect the main qualities of the animal. Each of the breeds, in spite of their universality, is characterized by a specific feature, a tendency, expressed more strongly than other qualities.
- Russian-European - a hunter for large animals, wild boars or bears, is able to work alone.
- East Siberian - a universal companion, guard and shepherd, these dogs received more awards during the Great Patriotic War than representatives of other breeds.
- West Siberian - the resemblance to a wolf, greater than that of a husky, paradoxically affected the character, these flock animals, act as a team, like to graze cattle.
- Karelian-Finnish - fiery, compact, similar to foxes, these huskies cannot stand loneliness, fish and hunt small fur-bearing animals, at the same time they have a lively mind and a cunning expression of their faces.
- Nenets reindeer herding - small, up to 50 cm at the withers, these dogs are completely devoid of hunting instinct, they are absolute shepherds, easily cope with a large herd alone, they do not like dressing in the form of OKD or ZKS, but they perfectly understand everything that is required “for work” , as well as the others go in teams.
- Samoyed - the snow-white beauties have a grumpy character, once they alone coped with a bear, from those times there was a pronounced guarding and hunting instinct, animals are extremely serious and unhurried, thorough, loving long walks and adore walking in teams.
- Husky dogs - which have gained popularity thanks to the cinema, these dogs are the most non-conflict of all huskies, they prefer not to attack, but to "negotiate" or take the threat aside, they love to train and tolerate the absence of physical exertion, long walks and are calmly lonely.
When choosing a name, it is worth considering the distinctive features of the husky puppy breed. For example, the name Dineris is unlikely to suit the Russian-European beauty with a strong instinct of a hunter and a lightning reaction. While the owner begins to pronounce a beautiful and fashionable nickname, his pet will catch the neighbor's cat and bring it as a trophy.
