1 Small Utonagan Puppies for sale in Daventry, West Northamptonshire

The Utonagan was named after an old Chinook Indian tale meaning "spirit of the wolf." The first dogs were introduced to the UK in the late 1980s, and although the breed is still rare, it is gaining recognition in this country, albeit slowly. Bred to look like wolves but with the character and temperament of a domestic dog, the Utonagan is often used as a PAT therapy dog in schools, hospitals and hospices and is known to be very adaptable and intelligent.

FAQs

Are Utonagans good pets?

Yes, Utonagans are excellent pets, especially for families, due to their friendly, intelligent, and well-balanced temperament. They are sociable, affectionate with children, and generally get along well with other pets if socialized early. However, as a large and energetic breed, they require firm leadership, consistent training, mental stimulation, and daily exercise to prevent behavioural problems.

What is a Utonagan mixed with?

The Utonagan is a deliberate mix of three northern breeds: Alaskan Malamute, Siberian Husky, and German Shepherd. This combination gives them their distinctive wolf-like appearance and a blend of intelligence, adaptability, and loyalty.

How long do Utonagan dogs live?

Utonagans have a relatively long lifespan for a large breed, typically living between 12 and 15 years when given proper care, including a healthy diet, regular exercise, and routine veterinary check-ups.

How big is a Utonagan?

Utonagans are large dogs, usually standing between 23 and 30 inches tall at the shoulder and weighing approximately 55 to 110 pounds (25 to 50 kilograms). Their size requires owners to provide careful handling and appropriate exercise to manage their strength and energy.
