Bred by the Mahlemut Inuit living on the Artic coast of western Alaska, these handsome dogs have been used as sled pullers for centuries. The Timber Wolf has participated in their development. They are affectionate dogs who play willingly with people and other dogs that they know. Malamutes are powerful animals with a deep chest and outstanding stamina. They weigh 85 to 125 lbs. and stand 23-28" at the shoulders. Contact the dog breeders below for your next family friend.
