They play well with other dogs they are familiar with, but are wary of strange dogs and people. Usually, they warm up quickly, but supervision is a good idea in new situations. Yakutian Laikas are not suitable for people who cannot spend time with their dogs. Since this breed has a high prey drive, they are not ideal for homes with cats or other smaller animals. Cloning Two Yakutian Hunting Laika were cloned in 2017 in an effort to preserve the critical endangered hunting Yakutian laika. In 2020, one of the cloned dogs successfully whelped a litter of 7 puppies. The Yakutian hunting Laika and the Yakutian Laika are thought to be two different breeds.
