International Tamaskan Forum

I have two Tamaskans, a husky mix, and a Tamaskan mix. Tamaskan 1 - An adult female of no wolf content and very heavy (68.3%) GSD. She runs zoomies like a husky and is just as goofie, but she has the focus and desire to lean and please of most GSDs. She is very calm on the leash and can even be walk...

Have you considered making your own wet topping? I had a senior dog once that needed a little gravy or a few scoops of wet food mixed in to the dry food before he would eat. I use to make him two types of gravy, a thick one and a more watered down one. For fewer calories, you can try boiling up some...

Awesome news! Which litter?! Share pics.

As Sylvaen mentioned, it depends on lines and individual dogs. It is best to talk to the breeder. Only have one adult Tamaskan Dog, and she was from a White Swiss Shepherd outcross litter and has no detectable (Embark) wolf content. I have found her to be very focused and trainable. She is easy off ...

Hello, I competed in shows with my Tamaskan. I wanted to get feedback from several judhes on her structure. Since we can't show in AKC shows and ARBA doesn't have shows in Texas, I worked with others to get our breed accepted to show with ICE Dog Shows, IABCA, and ICKC. We showed at all three the fi...

The Sylvaen Tamaskan breeder's website has a very detailed history on the breed and on the wolf content. It might be a good read, and there are several posts (and FB pages) devoted to this topic. In short, the Tamaskan Dog was originally meant to be a look alike breed, but some of the foundation dog...

I'm sorry to hear the diagnosis, but I'm glad you did find an answer to the issues. If you are not already a member, I'd suggest looking at joining the Facebook group "American Tamaskans" and asking there. It is a group solely for owners of puppymill pups. I myself have a Ratliff pup that ...

Hello, I have a Tamaskan Dog, two husky mixes, and run a local northern breed meetup group. It is possible to have a husky off lead, but it takes a lot of consistent training. My good friend has two that are almost always off lead and never leave his side. My Tamaskan and female husky mix are wonder...

Hi, Stairs, jumping, and hard.long running should be limited during the puppy's growth stages. Too much too soon can cause environmental impacts on the proper growth plate closures occurring during development. It can lead to things like hip dysplasia in later years. A good puppy exercise chart guid...

That's a lot of Sylvaen dogs taking over Austria!

Thank you for the update. I'm glad to hear about the growth and organizational planning to help keep things moving in the right direction.

Thank you for reaching out for more information and contacting Reddit. If they are breeding dogs from Ratliff, they won't be actual Tamaskan dogs and have a high chance of having expensive health issues. All Ratliff's breeding girls are daughters from two of the females he got from Kevin.

Welcome! You have a gorgeous looking dog.

Hello. Welcome to the forum. As Nino mentioned, the forum isn't as active. However, feel free to post here. I find it easier to search topics and find less drama (and blocking) here. I do hope it picks back up. Some good Facebook sites are "Tamaskan Dog - Debate & Discussion" and 'All ...

Welcome to the family! We look forward to seeing pictures and hearing stories of your pup's adventures.

Hi, Pete from Denmark. Welcome to the International Tamaskan Forum. I've provided some useful links below. If you are considering bringing a Tamaskan Dog home summer/fall 2018, start reaching out to breeders now. Waiting lists for many breeders are at least a year. It sounds like you might be lookin...

please please please if you'd like to be a tamaskan owner, follow the advice of all these other owners and socialize and do it often. Quit your job and just concentrate on socializing. These are entertaining, loving animals for a majority of their lives, but they are quick to flip the switch and tu...

Hi. Yes. It is my understanding that the TDR website is undergoing some changes and will have some more revisions made to it over the next month or two. The link from the website to the database will hopefully be restored once everything is completed. You can search the database here: http://www.tam...

Hi. I bought a waist belt and leashes from Polardog Outfitters (a fellow Tamaskan owner). I love using when I can, especially to be hands free, or hands free with two of my three dogs (one is a puller). I haven't found one that will allow three leashes and spin to untangle if they cross each other a...

If you have a TDR registered Tamaskan Dog and you live in North America, you can compete in real-life dog shows hosted by: the American Rare Breed Association (ARBA) and the Kennel Club-USA (KCUSA) as well as International Canine Events (ICE), International All Breeds Canine Association (IABCA), and...

Welcome! Where are you hoping to get you little one from? It's such an exciting new adventure!

Hi. Welcome to the form and the great world of Tamaskan Dogs.

Hi. I'm here. Firefly Tamaskan. I slowed down a little as I had a baby and worked on getting my female Tam and kennel approved. I'm catching up on posts now. I know there are some good posts over on the "All About Tamaskan" and "Tamaskan Dog - Debate & Discussion Group" with ...

I have them free in the back when I don't have my custom crate (holds 3) inside. A big part of the decision will be the vehicle size to know how big a crate can be and not interfere with other areas in the car. I have one dog that prefers to ride in a crate and 2 that prefer to be harnessed and buck...

Hi. Was wondering how your search went. There is now a Texas Tamaskan Meetup group. In not currently aware of any Tamaskans in Austin, but I have one done here in San Antonio, and we travel to Austin every few months.

I haven't read all the comments, as I'm going into a scent work class and was asked to jump in here. Ratliff is a byb. His first two females were from a puppymill had heath issues, including hips. He kept breeding past when he said he would. Most, if not all, his current dogs are daughters of those ...

Hi, I'm not sure I ever got around to introducing my River (avatar photo). She turned 1 year old on November 10, 2016. She is from the Sylvean Tamaskan's White Swiss Shepherd outcross litter (Zente x Vega). She loves to run and be chased by other dogs, and she loves to cuddle with me on the couch. S...
