My story

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

Hello all! I am a handsome, three-year-old male Malamute seeking new living arrangements. I have a lot to offer. I bond tightly to my pack and enjoy lots of affection and attention. I am well behaved in the house and can be left alone for 4-6 hours at a time. I love cuddles, holding your hand, playing in the water, hiking, running, and ploughing about in the snow. Can be adventurous and love to ride in a vehicle.

I do have my “rather nots,” so here are the few things I don’t enjoy: I do not appreciate being boarded in a kennel run and may protest “the jail.” I’m too rambunctious to be around small or younger children, and decidedly not good with small animals.

More on the plus side, I have been known to play happily with other large female canines, and understand and respond to the commands sit, down, stay, can balance a treat on my nose and recall more reliably than many of my breed. I am mostly okay with grooming, except for nail trims, but hey, nobody is perfect. I however, am pretty darn close. Do you want to go on an adventure with me for the rest of my life? If so, I am excited to meet you!

We offer educational material about the Alaskan Malamute breed, can assist in resolving containment issues, are able to help an owner with appropriately re-homing their Malamute when necessary, and provide behavioral issues support in the form of referrals to trainers and other more experienced Malamute owners. These funds are also used to help care for Malamutes with adoptable personalities who have been pulled from shelters, or who have been seized by authorities after having been abandoned, neglected, or abused.
