Ivie Huskies

Strider was born on January 11, 2023, in Ukraine, and we eagerly followed his litter from birth, excited to welcome him to the States. He is a beautiful blend of working and show lines, with a thick coat, a striking headpiece, and balanced overall angulation. A moderately energetic and incredibly sweet dog, Strider can be a bit shy with new people but quickly warms up—especially with food—revealing his snuggly and affectionate personality. He has great eye contact, enjoys working with his human, and is a silly, lovable companion who gets along well with everyone.

​

Structurally, Strider is a well-balanced male with moderate angles, a strong head carriage, and smooth, efficient movement. Standing at 22 inches in height, he is a smaller male, but his presence is undeniable. His stunning headpiece, lovely full coat, and deep, soulful brown almond-shaped eyes give him a striking and expressive appearance.

​

Strider is a go-with-the-flow kind of dog, deeply devoted to his person and always eager to explore and learn. He is sensitive and sweet, showing great respect for older dogs while confidently interacting with new ones. His high food motivation makes him easy to train, and he thrives when given a job—especially running in harness, which he absolutely loves.

​

Currently, Strider has 12 AKC points with one major, needing just one more major to complete his AKC Champion title. Once finished, we plan to continue showing him as a special in pursuit of his Grand Champion title. Beyond conformation, Strider will also be competing in Fast CAT and CAT trials, where his athleticism and drive will shine. Looking ahead, I am especially excited to race him alongside Naava in bikejoring, aiming to debut as a pair within the next year or two.
