Description
The Alaskan Malamute is a powerful and majestic breed with a thick, double coat that helps them thrive in cold climates. Originally bred as sledge dogs, they are known for their strength, endurance, and intelligence. Despite their size, Malamutes are gentle and affectionate with their families. However, their high energy levels and strong prey drive require experienced owners who can provide adequate exercise and training. Their thick coat needs regular grooming to prevent matting.
