My story

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

Hello! My name is Ackey. For those that would not know, Ackey means
"Nitric Acid" which is a common nickname in chemistry naming language.
Lately, my name could be Achey, since I’m currently recovering from TPLO
surgery. I’m healing beautifully, and I am looking forward to when I can be
active again!

A little bit more about me: I am a beautiful 6.5-year-old female malamute. I
am cuddly and love my humans! I am beyond that crazy puppy stage, and
would love to find the perfect exercise buddy. Why, you say? My wonderful
doctor says I need to be on a weight loss program. Since I was needing
surgery, I didn’t enjoy walking very much, so I packed on a few pounds. But
once I am all healed up, maybe you can help me reach my goal weight! I
would love to spend time with you in the great outdoors. Slow and easy
progression with walks will be the ticket.

I love to play tug-of-war, and I love to run after my soccer ball when my
peeps kick it across the yard. And I really have fun going for a search for
treats. Yup, I am treat motivated.

Small animals are not a good idea with me, just because I am so big. With
proper introductions I would probably do well with another similar sized
dog. In the not-too-distant future, I will need a new foster home or better
yet, a home I can call my own forever. My caretakers have kept me safe
while I heal, so please reach out to Moonsong if you are the perfect match
for me.

Ackey is spayed, microchipped and up-to-date on all her vaccinations.
Moonsong is excited to find a new home for this lovely girl!
