Yaikutian Laika - Dog Breeds
The Yakutian Laika is an ancient dog breed from the cold region of Yakutia, an area of northern Russia with extreme temperatures. The Sahka people of the region developed the breed not only to be an impressive sled dog, but a part of the human family as well.
Fans of the breed might know these dogs by one of their many monikers, including Yakut Laika, Yakutskaya Laika, Tungusskaya, Chubychanskaya, Arkticheskaya, Polarmaya, and Sledge Dog. Although these are purebred and somewhat rare dogs, you may still find them in shelters and rescues.
