No, these dogs were never bred for speed. Why do you ask? If you are considering them as a "racing dog", forget it. This primitive dog should be bred and used with its original purpose in mind.

Inuits used dogs sleds for transportation but how did they get the dogs?

Most Inuits get their dogs from breeders, or buy a female and breed it themselves to save money This is a totally bogus answer written by someone who knows NOTHING about Inuit, the north or their dogs! First of all, there is NO SUCH WORD AS "INUITS"! The word "Inuit" is already plural. "Inuk" is singular. Inuit have had Inuit Dogs for thousands of years. The breed, although in low numbers, exists in many communities of the circumpolar north as part of traditional working dog teams. Team owners are willing to share their dogs genetic material with other serious dog team owners.

Where do Inuit dogs come from?

Inuit dogs, also known as Canadian Eskimo dogs, originate from the Arctic regions of North America, particularly among the Inuit peoples of Canada and Greenland. They were bred for their strength, endurance, and ability to work in harsh climates, serving as sled dogs, hunting companions, and protectors. These dogs are descendants of ancient Arctic dog breeds brought by the Thule culture around 1,000 years ago. Their unique adaptations make them well-suited for life in extreme cold and challenging terrains.


Some inuit people use wolves as work animals?

Some Inuit communities have historically relied on dogs, particularly sled dogs, for transportation and work in harsh Arctic conditions, rather than using wolves. Sled dogs are domesticated breeds that have been selectively bred for traits suited to working alongside humans. While wolves are not used as work animals due to their wild nature and lack of domestication, they remain an important part of Inuit culture and mythology. The relationship between Inuit people and dogs reflects a deep understanding of the environment and the animals within it.


How do the Inuit travel?

They could travel with either Sled dogs (which was pretty popular for the Inuit's) or they could travel on Kayaks for travelling on water. In case you need to know what they are made of, sled dogs are made of just wood (they could carve it with their tools) and regular dogs. Kayaks are made of driftwood and sealskin together. Hope this helped!
