From Elaine Pinard's legendary unique breed - an exquisite mix of wild beauty and friendliness. Beautifully submissive and adoring of you and children. One big shy guy, the other smaller and flighty as a seagull.
Personalities are well developed - perfect and beautiful in every way ( NO ISSUES these are magnificent animals from pedigree selected from around the world ) - I raised Anyka from 3 weeks and the very robust Akita shy guy from 3 months. They want a kind and loving home where there is dignity given freely to them - as it is to each other - as equal spirits on this earth - a good home. They are Perfect in every way.
Raised in harness on a run line, Anyka has not been without a sibling since birth. Perfectly socialized. A constant acrobat body language between them. They have always been together.
The "Big Guy", Akita ( Gentle Bear ) or whatever name you like ... is similar to how I often call them "HaKita" because it is like Hallo (hello) and the ending of the Blackfoot word for "little horse" ( Ponokamita ) - and like a yodel I use to bring them home from a late night freedom time - I let huskies go at night - have for 25 years. A territory gives them a life.
The smaller brother is compact and delicate - with yellow eyes a ring of blue stars in the yellow band. Wolves do not have blue eyes, but brown or yellow. Born with the distinctive black patch half way down the tail. The small brother has a given name of Anyko meaning "Spirit of the Forest": Names chosen by a Micmac friend. Sounds with strong consonants really get there attention - like a mouse squealing ! or the "click" in clicker training. I do not train Siberians to sit, or lie down - I do train them to stay, or stop. Nor would I train a horse to sit or lie Down or expect a Seagull to sit or lie down. Their heads are in the clouds and that is why we love them.
"Don't Shoot the Dog" Karen Pryor (necessary reading I believe). She is a behaviorist who trained Dolphins, her kids, her boss, and her partner.
Anyko is dominant. Anika is the big shy one. And one day he will become aware of his size ( he is a litte now ) and Anyko better watch out.
I let them wrestle play-fight and fight - I let them learn from each other - their play is wilder and rougher than ours ( It would frighten you if you did not understand to let THEM finish their status seeking drives between each other.) They jump up and kiss on the lips you will have to break that with your knee if you choose. Allowing this kiss licking establishes you as parent and superior. I let them gently lick and chew my hands and arms - as gentle as affection - it is a sign of their affection. We use language to form social bonds, pet with our hands, they use licking, and chewing a gentle exquisite dexterity with their teeth - often preening my hair or skin - affection through their teeth and kisses THEY LISTEN the slightest discomfort a little shout/cry from you and they break off or become more gentle.
Both are friendly to everyone - amazing to see. Completely trusting of you - can be handled physically - in any trusting way. Can be trusted with bones or food when ANY PERSON is near. Submissiveness to people has been bred into them. Have never been struck. Never strike an animal for discipline - it all depends on how much trust and closeness you desire, how much you wish their free spirit to speak.
I believe do believe there are times for firm aggressive discipline but of a kind that does not "come from you" - but is immediate and originates from their action ( cause and effect ) a threatening aggressive discipline can be delivered - but it comes from a consequence of THEIR action - it does not come form you. Every time you strike them their spirits move permanently further away. The best way to discipline them, to lower their status, is to isolate them - alone away from all social contact. It is the worst non-violent form of punishment.

Fed them wild food fish, fish oil, fish meal, eggs and lots of bone - raw or cooked - meat and raw liver. Trust them with bone. I've raised dozens of Siberian Wolf cousins over 25 years on bone - bone all day every day - they are not a domestic breed - they are a wild loving breed.
A Neurological condition does not allow me to handle them the way I used to. Mostly outdoors - they are tough but do love a blanket, a couch or your bed - you can see them smile.

Call to discuss their personalities/temperament further. The large male is - very large - very gentle ... noble ... DOES NOT LIKE BEING ALONE. Spirit of the Forest is totally comfortable alone. A strong noble working breed from a working sledding pack.
