I don't think Kirby and Ralph are are Siberian huskies.. they look much more like an Alaskan malamute or an Akita.

But yess, if you feed a husky too much, over time they can get that big.

Kirby and Ralph are unreallistically large. They can't be pure huskies, but I wouldn't say part masstive.

Maybe part malamute or even wolf.

And anyways, animators and cartoonists do change characters to make them different, such as Jenna with her twig legs. Star, with his head shape. Dusty, with her purple fur.

It makes characters more "fun" and creative for children and people who watch it. Of course huskies could really never get that big, but it's just a movie.

Yeah I know just like they make Spirit have twig legs for a horse. I guess it is no fun if they keep drawing their characters more realistic than needed too


I dunno if you haven't seen the movie in a while or if you haven't seen a horse, but Spirit most definitely did not have twig legs for stylization >>

In Ralph and Kirby's case, yes its stylization, but its not a husky breed xD Huskies can get fat, but their legs don't get big enough to even exaggerate like Ralph's legs are.

Whether Kirby and Raplh are husky or not, one thing is for certain, the two of them do not go hungry. :lol:

It matters on if they are a mixed breed or what type of breed he is.
