Summary
About Canaan Dog

About East Siberian Laika
A powerful, lively hunting dog from Siberia with a wedge-shaped head, erect ears, and a dense double coat. Independent in the forest and friendly toward people, the East Siberian Laika is bred for versatile hunting, often of larger game. This breed needs a dedicated hunter with access to hunting grounds, plenty of physical and mental stimulation, and regular grooming during shedding season.
