A eurohound is a cross between an Alaskan husky and a pointer. It was created in Scandinavia. It is one of the most formidable sled dogs in the world, combining the husky's ability to work in snow and a pointer's energetic nature. The only problem is that its coat sometimes cannot sustain the amount of snow and cold required for racing because it doesn't have a double coat like the other sled dog breeds.
