Origin and history
Since 1999 he has been a breed of sled dog recognized as a breeding group in the RKF. The breed founded the breeding of the Siberian Husky with other dogs of the Siberian peoples - Jukagiren dog ( Yakutian Laika ) and Kamchatka dog - in 1910 . In all of Siberia, all primitive dogs are descendants of the first dogs that immigrants from the south brought to these regions. Jesdowaja Laika means "Transport Laika" or "Laika who pulls a sledge". Ездовая собака (Ezdovaja Sobaka) means sled dog. The form Чукотская Ездовая is a string of adjectives and is the short form of Чукотская ездовая собака (Chukchi sled dog).
This breed is developed from specimens of the best indigenous sled dogs of the Chukchi and other peoples of Northeast Siberia. A draft of the new breed standard is already being formulated. Descriptions of the native sled dogs of the Chukchi Peninsula (also called Chukotka Peninsula ) generally reflect the appearance of the sled dog common in the tundra in the east and other areas of the Taimyr Peninsula . Naughty eyes are not appreciated by the kajoors , the mushers of Chukotka, and hunters. The latter believe that blue-eyed animals have less stamina and do inferior work.
