The Northern Inuit Dog is an unrecognized crossbred dog that originated the late 1980s, in an attempt to create a domestic dog breed more closely resembling the wolf. It currently recognized by its own independent breed club, but by no other major kennel clubs. The dog originates from crosses among German Shepherds, Siberian Huskies, and a variety of Inuit breeds. Although the original stock is Canadian in origin, the breed was developed in the UK.

Over the proud unfruitful sea,
East and west the ships came back
Happily or unhappily....”
