Our Huskies are  Special because they are from true " Markovo Stock "  Siberian Husky Bloodlines: What IS "Seppala Strain"?From 1969 through 1975 the remnants of the McFaul Seppala lineage were salvaged by what later became known as the " Markovo rescue effort ", in which some twenty litters were bred by Markovo and Seppineau kennels from McFaul and McFaul-derived stock, thus preserving the continuity of the pure Seppala trunk.     Seppala content will be labelled "unique Seppala" when it is derived from the McFaul/Shearer (Seppala/Foxstand) mainline stock through Markovo or Seppineau breeding, because this kind of Seppala content is not shared by the general Siberian Husky population, but is the unique heirloom bloodline, the only "pure Seppala" line that has survived to the present day free of any significant interbreeding with Seeley-derived stock. Unique Seppala is not represented today by any bloodlines other than those derived from the 1970s Markovo/Seppineau stock. Second foundation:  Ten dogs were used by Markovo and Seppineau kennels in the 1970s to ensure the survival of Seppala lineage. These ten became in effect a second founder group for contemporary Seppala stock. No other Seppala lineage sleddogs from that era gave rise to pure Seppala bloodlines that are known to have survived to the present day. The 7 out of 10 second foundation dogs are listed as follows, they are in our Huskies Pedigree.            DITKO OF SEPPALA - SHANGO OF SEPPALA -  DUSKA OF SEPPALA -  LYL OF SEPSEQUEL                 MOKA OF SEPSEQUEL  -  VANKA OF SEPPALA -  FROSTFIRE ANISETTE http://siberian-husky-bloodlines.seppalasleddogs.com/seppalastrain.htm   Ditko Of Seppala http://pawvillage.com/pedigree/pedigree.asp?ID=AWSH25029 Male Siberian Husky  2/10/1959 - 7/10/1971 Color: Gr/Wh Markings: Blue eyes Owner: J Jeffrey Bragg/Robert Reiber (Canada) Breeder: Donnie McFaul (Canada) CKC (Canada) 448214 Sire: Toto Of Seppala Dam: Zaza Of Seppala     Shango Of Seppala http://pawvillage.com/pedigree/dynprofile.asp?ID=AWSH2825 Male Siberian Husky  6/18/1962 (deceased) Color: Gr/Wh Markings: Brown eyed Owner: Curtis Stuckey Breeder: J Donnie McFaul CKC (Canada) 565484 AKC WA 491191 Sire: Ruffo Of Seppala Dam: Bilka Of Seppala III Surgut Of Markovo http://pawvillage.com/pedigree/pedigree.asp?ID=AWSH4799 Sikku Male Siberian Husky  1/7/1974 (deceased) Color: White-Gr Saddle Owner: Barbara A Fisk (Canada) Breeder: J J Bragg (Canada) CKC (Canada) FAG 623 Sire: Shango Of Seppala Dam: Lyl Of Sepsequel   Foto Credits to Barbara Fisk and Linda Sked Posted with permission from Linda Sked.

From reader’s view: At single lead is Bonzo (Harry x Kolyma); left point: Smoky (ukn. x ukn.); right point: Sneegruk (ukn. x ukn.); left team: Bijou 9unknown x unknown); right team: Kingeak (); left wheel: Nurmi (ukn. x ukn.)right wheel: Silver (Togo x Nome). All males, these were undoubtedly Sepp’s best seven dogs at the time. Sepp had lost this race in 1927 and 1928, and desperately wanted the only major New England/Canadian race he yet to win. This team st a new course record in the 3 days (123 miles total) event. Credits From the collection of Sigrid Seppala Hanks    W.B Edwards, Quebec photo

1. Huskies in Germany

In Deutschland wurde 1967 der erste Siberian Husky registriert: „Kamtschatka’s Burning Daylight“, ein Hund des bekannten Rassespezialisten und Richter Thomas Althaus, Schweiz. Weitere Importe aus den Niederlanden und Dänemark folgten. 1972 schliesslich gründete Anneliese Braun-Witschel unter dem Namen „Alka-Shan“ den ersten grossen und einen der erfolgreichsten deutschen Zuchtzwinger überhaupt, dessen Name nach wie vor für leistungsfähige Arbeitshunde steht. Die immer noch im Renn- und Zuchtgeschehen aktive „Grande Dame“ des deutschen Schlittenhundesport war massgeblich auch an der Entwicklung der Vereine beteiligt, die die Rasse des Siberian Husky innerhalb des VDH betreuen: zunächst geschah dies ausschliesslich durch den Deutschen Club Nordischer Hunde e. V.(DCNH), aus dem heraus schliesslich 1992 auf Initiative einer Gruppe erfolgreicher Züchter und Musher der ebenfalls dem VDH angeschlossene Siberian Husky Club Deutschland e. V. (SHC) gegründet wurde. Diesem Schritt folgte die heute deutlich erkennbare die Aufspaltung der Rasse in Arbeits- und Ausstellungshundetypen – die einen extrem langbeinig und sehr schlank, die anderen etwas kompakter und in der Regel auch mit dichterem Fell ausgestattet.  Dolores von der Oberpfalz   Female Siberian Husky  Sire  Berry Vom Großen Bärensee                                Dam  Chucky Chatanga     Chaluka’s Na-Nu     Sierra’s Chaluka Cossack    CH Tatarian’s Sierra Smoke CD    Snow Bound Cienja     Newbury’s Rafinska Nahleen    CH Amur’s Nikita of Newbury    CH Amur’s Natascha of Newbury     Anataschka of Oimjakon     Kamtschatka’s Burning Daylight     Manuk vom Nordpol     Althaus Arctica Of Baltic     First Daylight of Indigo Ho     Kamtschatka’s Burning Daylight     Kecha’s Little Extra    PEDIGREE of AMULETT BILKA CD Sire: AMULETT J-BORISZ Athaskanay's Iotshy Bundas Boston Blazer CH Innisfree's Pegasus CH Alakazan's Nikolai CH Frosty Aire's Banner Boy CD Kameo of Kazan CH Innisfree's Oomachuk CH Innisfree's El Ferro Innisfree's Banshee Sundonan's Natonya Of Bundas CH Bundas Boston Blacky O'Kicsi CH Marlytuk's Red Sun of Kiska Kicsi of Marcipan-Gabor CH Bundas Bambi of Labda CH Marlytuk's Red Sun of Kiska CH Labda of Marcipan Gabor Athaskanay's Gishiga CH Innisfree's Savage Sam CH Innisfree's Sierra Cinnar CH Innisfree's Sierra Beau-Jack Innisfree's Sierra Royal Kate CH Innisfree's Connameara CH Weldon's Beau-Tukker CH Innisfree's Tanya Tucker Red Kiana Of Alta Vista Copper Mac Rex of Mac Ditmar's Happy Belle Volka of Midnight Sun Chief Panda of Midnight Sun Amur's Bell of Volk Ko Angliya Ulita Of Schiboj CH Pyrrhus Du Lichen Bleu Tofty's Toklat Bo Of Igloo Pak Giblet Midget of Little Alaska Star's Tofty Sandanona Trapper Star of Calivali Chilkoot Moonlight Erenek v.
