Some adaptations of the Siberian Husky are it's ability to withstand extreme cold due to their double coat, having very tough feet which allow them to run over ice and snow for long periods of time and having a slow metabolism which allows them to do all of this on a minimal amount of food.
Basset hounds are very calm, peaceful dogs, although they can be full of energy and zest. Their ability to focus, disciplined nature, and compatibility with children make them a favorite among dog owners. The basset's physical characteristics make it an excellent hunting dog, second only to the bloodhound. The basset's ancestors can be traced back to the 1800's in France, where friars of the French Abbey of St. Hubert used them to hunt badgers. Bassets have short legs and a long body, giving it an advantage when it comes to flushing prey out of cover. Its movement is very intentional, and it does not move awkwardly at all. They also seem to be never-tiring while in the field. The basset is proficient at hunting squirrels, badgers, wolf, fox, pheasant, raccoons, opossums, rabbits, and even wild boar. The basset's normal height is 14 inches, and its weight runs about 50 pounds. They have short hair over most of their body, with a little longer hair running underneath the dog's tail. Hair color is diverse, including red and white, black and white, lemon, mahogany, and tri-color. The most common color that we are all familiar with, though, is the tri-colored white, black, and brown. The hair never needs trimming, however it does shed often. Grooming should be done twice a week, including having the nails trimmed. Their ears need to be cleaned on a regular basis, too, due to their long length and the way they lay on the dogs head. Bassets have a tendency to wander off if left to roam. Plus, their natural instincts may take over and cause them to get injured while chasing prey. Keeping them in a small enclosure is not effective, because they will dig under any Fencing material and end up roaming. When they are kept outdoors, they need about twenty minutes of exercise per day. Three walks a day is appropriate. When they are kept inside, their energy level drops dramatically, and they tend to sleep a lot. Due to their calm nature, basset hounds do not make good guard dogs. Their deep, loud bark tends to scare off potential intruders, but the dog will not attack when facing a stranger. Plus, their short stature is not very intimidating. When training the basset hound, it is important to have patience. The basset can be trained, however sometimes instinct will kick in, and they will tend to focus on their natural hunting tendencies. You have to take your time training them, but they can indeed be trained. Unfortunately, the basset is naturally prone to many health problems. Ear infections are a problem due to the shape of their ears. They may suffer from joint and back problems as well. Eye problems, including glaucoma, are not unheard of in this breed. Bassets may also suffer from Allergies, including allergies to outside foliage. Despite any physical problems, one of the biggest factors in choosing basset hounds these days is the fact that they make an excellent companion and friend. They have a nice disposition, are normally low maintenance, and they are comforting and enjoyable to have around.

Dobermans are great guard dogs for their alertness, intelligence and loyalty. They can be agressive dogs when provoked. The typical pet Doberman attacks only if it believes that it, its property, or its family are in danger. Very energetic and intelligent dogs. Not considered a good guard dog because of its personality characteristics and gentle temperament. A 2000 study of dog bites resulting in human fatalities in the U.S. found fifteen such fatalities (6% of the total) were caused by "husky-type" dogs between 1979 and 1997. Both dogs are on the top ten list of dangerous dogs but husky's are closer to the top of the list.
