Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Stormy and Thunder. These two sweet 9 year old boys are the product of a divorce. Unfortunately, they haven’t had good care in quite some time, and have some pretty bad problems because of that. Both boys are very overweight, have very bad ear infections, Stormy (darker) has one ruptured ACL (very painful!) and the other one is going, and Thunder (lighter) has issues with both rear tarsals (ankles). These are two of the nicest boys…but they need a LOT of help to get healthy. They will need special food, supplements, and medications to help get them ready for potential surgeries (they are not currently surgical candidates due to their weight and other problems). These are two of the NICEST dogs that have come through our doors. Please help us help them to be healthy again, and find the loving new homes they deserve. It’s bad enough to be homeless for the holidays – but to be homeless AND hurting so much, well, that really stinks for these poor handsome fellows ;-(
If you are interested in this dog, or any of our other dogs, please go to www.iamra.org and fill out an online application.

Adopting a Malamute is a serious commitment, requiring both financial stability and consistent living arrangements. IAMRA does not adopt to anyone under the age of 21. Although we rarely adopt to persons under 25, these applicants will be considered on a case-by-case basis
We require that you fill out our Adoption Application on our website, www.iamra.org, if you are interested in adopting. We are happy to answer any questions you may have, about our policies in general, or specific dogs available, once we have a completed form. Dogs are placed based upon personality matches with the prospective adoptive persons/families. Adoptions are handled on a first come, first served basis. All adoptions are based upon approval by the IAMRA Board of Directors. We reserve the right to refuse adoptors. IAMRA serves Illinois and portions of some bordering states.
Each Alaskan Malamute has a modest
adoption fee.
Our dogs are temperament tested. We can give you information about the dogs likes and dislikes, level of alpha behavior, and level of socialization and training AFTER receiving an application.
