Beagle Husky Mix History

Up until about a decade ago, this breed was not around, and if you did see one, it was most likely due to accidental breeding.

Now breeders actually purposely breed these two purebreds together to create the Beagle Husky designer mix.

So since this is still a new type of mix, let’s learn more about the two parent breeds’ history that make up this mix.

Beagle

The Beagle can be seen as far back as the 14th century in England, where the breed was used to hunt. This breed made it easy to walk and run behind when hunting that it was often called a foothound.

Eventually, the breed made its way around the world and was still used in hunting. With the help of former President Lyndon B. Johnson, the breed gained even more popularity.

The American Kennel Club accepted the Beagle into the club in 1885, and the breed is still considered one of the more popular dog breeds in the United States.

Siberian Husky

The Siberian Husky originated in a village in Siberia where it lived among the Chukchi people. This is where the breed learned all of its available transportation skills as well as hunting.

When the gold rush started in the early 1900s, the breed was imported to Alaska, where people primarily used the dogs for their transportation needs in the snow.

The breed is also known for its incredible mission to bring medicine to a faraway village over 600 miles away. The team delivered the medicine in very fast timing, which helped the Siberian Husky gain fame.

This breed was accepted into the American Kennel Club in the 1930s.

Beagle Husky Mix Appearance

The appearance of your Beagle Husky mix will really depend on which traits your puppy takes from each parent. Some puppies in the litter can resemble the Beagle and others can look like the Siberian Husky.

Most likely, your puppy will take on the trait of floppy ears from the Beagle parent. The tail will probably curly upwards, and the dog’s body will most likely appear to be strong and muscular.

The head will be round, and the muzzle of the dog will be elongated.

Beaski’s come in so many different colors, and they can take on more than one color in their coat. You will find a huge list below of the different colors.

Don’t worry if you have children because this mix will do exceptionally well with them.

This mix can exhibit protective instincts over territory and owners. Beaski’s have guard dog tendencies, which can lead them to be territorial.

Overall, the Beagle Husky mix is both intelligent and stubborn making it easy to train if they know you are alpha; otherwise, the dog may try to do its own thing. This loving sweet dog would make a perfect companion to an active family.

Beaski Coat

The coat of the Beaski will likely be double-layered, which means it will need a lot of attention and maintenance, especially during those heavy shedding months.

The coat will be medium in length and look rather straight. If your puppy takes on more of the Husky genes then the coat can be slightly longer and thicker.

Your dog can have a few different colors in the coat which you will see below. Remember to brush the coat frequently to keep it shiny and smooth.

Beaski Size

This is considered a medium-size mixed dog breed. Males can span 18-22 inches in length and weigh between 40-50 pounds.

A female Beaski can span 16-20 inches in length and weigh between 35-45 pounds. Each puppy will vary depending on its traits, but this is the typical range seen for height and weight.

Beagle Siberian Husky Mix Health Problems

Designer breeds are created to make healthier versions of the parents of the breed. There is still some chance of the parent to pass on some genetic conditions, but it doesn’t always happen.

When you purchase a puppy from a breeder, it is very important that you ask about the parents of the puppy’s health. If possible, see if you can see health reports from a veterinarian.

Here is a list of health conditions that could be inherited for you to be aware of:

Hip Dysplasia – This is a very common issue in many dogs. This is when the formation of the hip bone and sockets do not align correctly, causing extreme pain when they rub together.

Intervertebral Disc Disease – The discs on the spinal column have burst. This will cause your dog to have pain and possibly nerve damage in more severe cases.

Eye Diseases – Some common eye disease that your dog may develop is cataracts or glaucoma.

Epilepsy – This is when your dog gets epilepsy or a few seizures, and the reason is really unknown.

If you are ever concerned about the health of your Beagle Husky mix, then you can ask your veterinarian for advice.

Life Expectancy of a Beaski

Both the Beagle and the Siberian Husky can live quite a long life span. The Beagle can live an estimated 10-15 years, and the Husky can live between 12-15.

With that being said, I would expect the mix of these two purebred breeds to live between 10-15 years. Of course, the life span will all depend on how healthy your dog is.

Remember to feed your dog good quality food, plenty of exercise, and give your dog lots of love to keep your dog living a long time.

Living Conditions

This is a very active mixed dog breed, so I highly suggest that you have a home with some sort of yard that your dog can roam around in.

The Beaski needs a lot of exercise, so you will need to be available to spend 90 minutes each day, giving your dog exercise.

This mix also eats quite a lot, so that will be another expense each month.

Beagle Husky mixes are very sweet, loving, and they make excellent family companions.

Beaski Exercise

The Beaski is a very high-energy dog just look at the energy levels of the breeds that make up this one. Since it has so much energy this breed will need around 90 minutes of exercise each day.

I recommend that you split the exercise up into at least two sessions each day. This will make it easier on you, and it will give your dog a break, and your dog will have more playtime to look forward to later.

If your dog does not get to play or get all of its energy out, it can read to unwanted bad behavior such as chewing on things your dog truly shouldn’t.

There are tons of fun things and ways you can exercise with your dog some examples are running, dog skateboarding, playing fetch, visiting a dog park, and so much more.

A backyard would also be very helpful as your dog can go outside and roam around for a while, adding to the exercise it’s getting throughout the day.

This is also a natural working dog, so if you plan on using this breed for specific jobs such as hunting or therapy reasons, it would be perfect for that. This will add to your dog’s exercise each day.

Beagle Husky Mix Feeding

Dogs that have high energy or ones that are very active will need more food than other dogs. The high-energy dog is actually burning more calories which means it needs more food throughout the day to sustain itself.

The Beagle Husky mix will need three and a half cups of dog food a day. This can be in the form of wet and dry dog food, but most owners prefer dry food.

Your dog’s daily amount of food should be divided into multiple meals throughout the day. You can give your dog a portion in the morning, afternoon, and the rest in the evening.

Your Beagle Husky mix should have an 18% protein intake in their food with healthy carbohydrates and fats. Find a dog food with a major source of protein in the first five ingredients such as fish, chicken, or beef.

Depending on the dog food brand you choose you are looking at an estimated daily cost of $2.50 to $3.30. This will add up quickly and become quite an expense every month.

Some dog food brands that we love are Natural Balance and Blue Buffalo which are comprised of quality ingredients and not as expensive as other high-quality brands.

Beagle Siberian Husky Mix Grooming

The Beagle Siberian Husky mix’s coat is a double coat that will shed more than your average dog.

You may already know that the Siberian Husky is an extreme shedding dog and, combined with a moderate shedding Beagle, will just make an above normal shedding dog.

It will still vary from puppy to puppy, but for the most part, you will need to brush and groom your dog frequently. Your puppy may need to be brushed daily while a sibling in the litter only every few days.

Expect more shedding to be done when the season change. A pin or slicker brush would be extremely helpful in grabbing out the loose dead hairs that will be shed all over your house.

Your dog’s floppy ears will need to be checked and cleaned more often as dirt can get trapped inside, and if not cleaned, it can cause infections.

Remember to trim your dog’s nails when they get too long you can either choose to do this which can be scary if you have never done it before.

If you are worried about cutting too close to the veins in the nail, take your dog to a professional dog nail groomer.

Husky Beagle Mix Training

Training is an important aspect for any dog breed. Luckily you should have great success training the Husky Beagle mix because it is a very intelligent dog.

Both parents were created and used in working jobs where it would perform tasks. These breeds were trained to do these jobs, so they have a keen sense to learn and can easily learn different tasks.

Make sure you start training your Beaski when it is a puppy. You will need to fill the role of alpha to get your dog to listen to you. Firm training that isn’t too harsh should do.

Make sure you reward your dog with treats, love, and praise during training sessions this will help combat aggression.

Once you have mastered the easy things like potty training and socialization, you can move on to more advanced things like obedience, leash, and even agility training.
