Are there pure bred Alaskan Malamutes that have a golden coat?

Are there pure bred Alaskan Malamutes that have a golden coat?Where can i see the facts about this?

You can check here, it doesn't say anything about gold but I believe gold is a dilute of liver/red so it's possible. http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11147067

No they only come in gray or the colors you see them in

There are several mixes that produce a golden coat, but no naturally occurring golden coat. The AKC defines the coat in the standard to, "ranges in color from light gray to black or from sable to red. Face markings, including a cap on the head and a bar/mask on the face are often distinguishing features."Golden is outside of the range of acceptable colors for a pure bred Malamute.

The breed standard states that these dogs come in light gray, black, sable(sable can range from darker with lots of black with the brown or lighter with very little black tipping), and shadings of sable to red.I'm sure there has been purebred Malamute's who have been Golden in color, but these dogs would be rare, as they are not breed standard and should not be bred.

The only allowable solid color is white. The usual colors are lite gray through shadings of black.sable, to red.Check out www.akc.org.. ..click on breeds, and then scroll down to the standard for the Alaskan Malamute.

Here is a reference site for possible malamute coat colors. Some are pretty rare.http://nicholescritters.homestead.com/malcolorgeneticRainbow.html
