Nope, they're smaller as a breed than your Shepherd. Mine weighs 55 lbs and is on the larger side for a female. She's not very tall. They're bred to be compact so that they move efficiently while working. Yours probably won't get taller, but she'll fill out For about the next year. Your dogs are beautiful! Best of luck!

Siberian Huskies aren't suppose to be big dogs, they're suppose to be medium sized dogs, some are just smaller than others. She looks purebred to me. I've seen many purebred Huskies that are petite.

By their standard, Siberians are medium sized dogs. Females are should fall into the 35–50 pound range. Like many breeds, they've been bred to be oversized, so it's not uncommon to see large Huskies, but it sounds like your girl is perfectly normal for the breed.
