Default Anyone got a Malamute? (dog)

Just wondered, as I see there are quite a few dog keepers, and some Akita keepers, so wondered if anyone had a Mal.

Should be picking a puppy up on Tuesday I hope

Just spending money like water right now, getting everything else ready

Fantastic choice One of my friends was telling me his mother is breeding these new type of wolf style dogs, GSD, Malamute & something else in them. Northern Inuit or something like that.
Incidentally i was at the Dogs Trust & the Animal Welfare centre yesterday to see if i could see anything that took my fancy, plenty of staffies for some reason. Decided i am going to wait till i come back from Florida before i get another one.

Get the pics up when you get the pup

Right, slight update.

After some checking, we discovered the seller appeared to be nothing but a rude puppy farmer, breeding an under aged dog, no real papers available.

Using a forum called Ice Bay Malamutes. They have been really helpful, so off to see a very highly sought after breeder tomorrow after a meeting, and see if they will bless us with one of their pups when they are ready in a few weeks time.

Awesome dogs though, really cant wait. Spent a fortune already lol

Hurrah.
Went to see a breeder in Leicester last night, and after spending some time with them, have agreed the purchase of a lil male pup

So excited, cant wait now

Most definatly mate One of the males from this particular bloodline is a proper boss dog, but still knows the owners as the Alpha's
The joy of getting it from puppyhood Much easier to remind it who is the guv.

Haha cheers for the pic Phil, thats about the stage they are at now

My friends had a Northern Inuit, note the word "had". It was a gorgeous looking dog and was very friendly but trashed the house. It was about 9 months old when they got it and they bought it off the breeder. They think it was a bad chewer then. The kitchen got trashed by it.

And good call on avoiding the puppy farm, the sooner places like that get closed down the better.

Yeah unfortunatly Mals have a very bad tendancy at about 10-15 months to hit adolesence (sp) at which point they get stroppy and awkward, and as the breeder described it, act like a teenage kid. Some trash the house, some just sulk.

Puppy farmers.... nasty scum, just putting out ill dogs, mixing into the bloodlines of good dogs, and ending in more ill dogs.!
