from Mexico without pedigree. The owner of these dogs was
Antonia Baratto worked for Embassy in Moscow. There were
7 puppies: 3 males (K`Gorkiy, K`Yukon, Kreg) and 4
females (Kimmy, Kella, Kzena, Kaja). K`Gorkiy was sold to
Italy. Female named Kimmy became one of the foundations
bitches in S LOSINOGO OSTROVA kennel. The next litter was
whelped in May 2000 from Italian dogs –

Aside from the dogs purchased by breeders, there appeared
individual imported malamutes (both males and females)
in Russia. Sometimes they were purchased accidentally.
Some of them being showed once or twice, vanished into
thin air. Some of them had litters. For example,
ELSA ALRAUNA, BEARVVIS NERNARK (Snowstorm`s Stone Fox õ
Bearvvis Antena) from Finland, BIRDY THE BESTIAL FACE OF BEAUTY
(Coghinore Del Lago Degli Orsi õ Kaossuthfalvi Porly) and
ICY BARONESS (Chateau Val Bellaire Ukasse x Arnaluk Mikilak Aleutia)

dogs is a son of Icy Baroness (sire – Skif Ot Filippovoy)
- Int. Ch. AKBAR owned by ALVEIG kennel.

April 2005. In December from Gala and Sven Ot Filippovoy was born the
first litter. The most known dog from this litter is Ch.Elisey.

Year after year the malamutes became more popular in
Russia. This results in breeding of not well-bred dogs
with the only goal to have cute puppies. Growing up,
these dogs only vaguely resemble malamutes. Some of such
dogs are purchased by amateurs who do not know the
peculiarities of malamute owning. In opposition, there’re
devoted breeders aimed for well-bred dogs, which they show.
Great disunity of owners and breeders does not conduce
to breed developing. National Club work consists just of
the organization of Speciality shows. There’s no
in-printed books in Russian at all. There seldom appear
articles in printed press or notes in Club of Northern sled dogs.
Meanwhile, there appeared new imported dogs in Russia.
Female Gloris Ot Filippovoy (Dawson Sausimayok x Snezhka Ot Filippovoy)
was mated by Active del Biagio in 2005.
DE ANRIT kennel imported female LUISAN DEL BIAGIO
(Girraween Del Biagio õ Tiqvaq Del Biagio) from Italy.
OT FILIPPOVOY kennel - male BJELKI DEL BIAGIO
(Brian Del Biagio õ After Del Biagio) and female
DOHIA DEL BIAGIO (Vykon's Encore Del Biagio õ Hank Del Biagio).
There were imported two half-sibs from Poland to Moscow
kennels: CHESVIK TOP – male SKYWALKER SAUSIMAYOK
(Brad Pitt Del Lago Degli Orsi x Destrukcja Sausimayok),
who has a successful start showing in Russia and abroad;
ALASKAN LEGEND – female KIOONA HUK AMAROK
(Brad Pitt Del Lago Degli Orsi x Colorado Huk Amarok).
ALVEIG kennel imported female SHOWLION NORTHERN LIGHTS ALVEIG
(Uyak Aleut Alex x Showlion`s Aniuyak Northern Lights) from the USA.

WAKON"S MARLENE"S DREAM and male WAKON`S LEYU SUNNY WIND,

There was imported a male from Canada:
KEIKEWABIC KIARANUK SCOOBY ROO
(Kiaranuk Keikewabic Spitimage x Sno Quest Keikewabik 2nd Chance).
In spite of short history of breed in Russia, we have
first Int.Ch.: bred in Poland -DAWSON SAUSIMAYOK and
NIAGARA HUK AMAROK, and bred in Russia –
SNEZHKA OT FILIPPOVOY, DIANA OT FILIPPOVOY,
GLORIS OT FILIPPOVOY, LEYU ERASIK, LEYU BLACK, LEYU AIRIS,
AKBAR, DENVER DREAM.
New kennels were established and started their work:

Malamute owners begin taking active part in canine sport.
Dogs owned by Natalia Filippova and Evgeniya Akhtomova
participate in sleddog races. Some of dogs go into
Skijoring and Canicross. For example, Leyu Black and his
son Ice Black, Akbar and his son Efim White Fang, Bolshoy
Vozhd` S Losinogo Ostrova, Conwell del Biagio in Moscow.
The ice is broken and I think sports with malamutes will develop.

I hope this splendid breed will have fine future in Russia.
