Breed History[]
The Utonagan was a breed developed by Edwina Harrison in the 1980's. The breed was first bred to have the appearance of a wolf, but the sweet temperament of the domestic dog. There are five unknown breeds that were mixed with the German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and Alaskan Malamute to develop the Utonagan. They are considered excellent family dogs with even tempers. The coat of the Utonagan is thicker in the winter than in the summer, which means during the summer this breed can shed quite a bit. They require regular grooming to maintain their coats. Additionally, they are usually highly active dogs and require a good amount of exercise and enrichment to discourage undesirable behaviors from surfacing out of boredom.
Breed In Wasabi[]
The Utonagan was added to the Wasabi Dog Sim gameplay officially on June 1st, 2022 during the alpha testing. This breed was sponsored by player Revi. The breed has 16 standard breed colors in the game with currently 0 color-modifying sushi. Within the game, the breed is considered a Working breed group and can thus enter competitions listed as Working-group only.
