My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dakota is approximate two-years-old and would love a family that goes on adventures and the great outdoors running or hiking. He enjoys car rides too.

Dakota came to us from a family who could not provide for him. He is looking for a family to reinforce good behavior (manners), teach him engaging games, and show him the good life in a home with A/C.

He has been great on a leash and needs help learning to curb his enthusiasm. He is a happy big boy and has done well meeting dogs while some appear intimidated by his size and excitement. He is happy exploring his new life.

Dakota would love a nice big fenced in backyard, where he can run around and be a dog. If you're looking for a love bug and best friend

Additional adoption info

Here are three great links that have a very honest description of Alaskan Malamutes: http://www.yourpurebredpuppy.com/reviews/alaskanmalamutes.html and https://dogtime.com/dog-breeds/alaskan-malamute#/slide/1 and also http://eqi.org/malamute.htm.  

Please review them carefully before submitting your application.  After you return the application, we'll give you a call to schedule a home visit, and we will also call the vet indicated on your application for a reference. After that we will schedule your home visit. Once your home visit is done and you are approved to adopt, you get to meet the dog(s) that are right for your family and hopefully bring one home.  Please note, we require that you bring your current dogs with you when you come to meet a dog(s) to adopt.
