Five Things You Should Know about the Alaskan Malamute
The Alaskan Malamute is not only the largest but it is the oldest of the Arctic sled dogs. This breed is definitely built for work but most Alaskan Malamutes today are family pets. They are extremely athletic and make great sledding, hiking, and jogging buddies. If you are interested in making an Alaskan Malamute your next pet here are five things you should know.
5. Grooming. Alaskan Malamutes have a lot of hair, if you get this breed be sure you buy a well made vacuum cleaner as well. The breed will shed heavily twice a year. And they are going to need a good brushing two to three times a week. This will keep their considerable coat clean and distrube the skin's oils.
4. Barking. Alaskan Malamutes bark very little if at all. What they will do however is Howl. Gernerally when they are lonely or upset they will howl. Be warned, If you get more than one Alaskan, they will howl in unison. In addition to howling for personal reason, Malamutes are often encouraged by external sounds like police sirens and church bells.
3. Children. Malamutes, when raised with kids, adore them, being especially patient with the kids they're raised with. However, small children can be in danger of getting knocked over by an excited Malamute, so adult supervision is required. Additionally, Malamutes are commonly food aggressive, so children should be taught not to interfere with a Malamute that's eating.
2.Trainablilty. The breed is independent and willful, they love to be in charge and won't hesitate to take advantage of any opportunity to push their agenda. So, you will need to be patient and consistent when training Alaskan Malamute.
1. Weather tolerance. Alaskan Malamutes are cold weather dogs by design and will do best where the temperatures generally cold. The breed can live in warmer climates, provided there is shaded area outdoors. On extremely hot days access to air conditioning is a must.

Had a Malamute for 17 years.... a phenomenal animal. Never had to deal with any food aggregation whatsoever. She was, however, very dominant and needed to assert herself over any other dog.
Hi there, I'm looking at getting a Malamute but have 2kids under two, would you have any feedback on how they are with kids
@@J89477 I have a malamute cross with German Shepherd. Personally i would wait till the children are a lot older before getting a dog like this. I have an 11 yr old and my dog knows she is the youngest and would take advantage if we had not been training both daughter and dog. She is learning to assert herself and the dog does listen, but its taken a while. They are big heavy dogs and could cause injury if excited. I've been training my dog almost everyday since we had him, as it says in the video they assert themselves, so good strong handling is necessary. Spend the time with your little ones just now, get a low maintenance dog until you are ready the time on a malamute. Just my opinion, it obviously depends on what space you have etc, God bless.
@@J89477 Good with kids, but they can knocksmall kids over easily. Not in an agressive or threatening way, just that the dogs are big and excitable.
Seventeen years for such big dog? That's phenomenal.

We rescued 2, both at about 4 years old, both lived to be just over 15
The annoying thing with a malamute is when people call them huskies
Amen.lol
Can’t really blame people for it don’t be an elitist
My Alaskan Malamute has always been like a giant lazy cat!! He naps all day.
He's also never been food aggressive. He's a gentle soul.
Heard they are aggressive towards other dogs??
Any breed can be.
Yes but Malamute's are said to be aggressive even when properly socialized and trained.
we've had our mal for 7 yrs now and the only time she gets aggressive is when she feels her "family" (us) are threatened, i call that protective not aggressive
Danny Direwolf yup
Oh my gosh,I thought my dog is a Siberian Husky but I took a DNA test and she's actually an Alaskan Malamute. No wonder why she's fluffy,fluff fluff.
Same
@@user-lj6ls3vx4o A Pure Bred Alaskan Malamute Will NEVER Have a Blue Eye or Eyes... Never Never Never. If you're Dog got a Blue Eye or Eyes, there is No Malamute at all in the dog, it's a Husky then, Pure Bred or Mixed with a Husky.
I'm looking forward to "ALL ABOUT LIVING WITH ALASKAN MALAMUTES"!!!
kiakill16 i like their wolf like appearance
I'm working with dogs and this is completely accurate, loved this video.
I had 4 Akitas and now got an Alaskan Malamute puppy and already love her!
Live in rural northern Minnesota, my malamute lives outdoors and absolutely loves the cold. Our summers can get pretty hot and he rarely gets out of the shade, can't imagine having a Mal live in a hot climate.
Whole pizza stolen ate within 3 mins and resting back in his original spot. As if nothing happened.
Event what sort of pizza did he pinch?
Hahaha! I had a German Shepherd/Pitbull cross that did this once! Kinda had to watch her around food, she'd snatch it sometimes.
So funny. 😂
You would not believe how loud I just screamed!
My girl had a bit of food aggression as a young puppy, she was only 10 weeks old, however after working with her on it at 6 months old I can proudly say she’s grown out of it and shows no food aggression. Also training my girl has been a breeze, she’s more affection driven than food or toy driven but other than that she’s a fast learner and very obedient 🤷🏽♀️
My last Malamute was named after a Pacific northwest coast Chief... named him Tahkoma. (Tacoma) I had to give him away to a native family in white swan wa, state. He was awesome.
I have a rescued Malamute/Husky mix and she's not food aggressive. She does possess a lot more Malamute traits than she does Husky and she's just a sweetheart!
I'm thinking of adopting one, a male, my main concerns is, how are they with furniture? Do they chew on stuff and destroy things?
@@tommysuriel male malamute tend to be territorial as well so something to be mindful of.
I love my Alaskan malamute he is adorable and I always want to hug him and come home to just see him
Love this breed love dogumentary TV
This hits some key points but leaves out an awful lot including the most important. They tend to have severe seperation anxiety and can and will eat your couch and your house. There are a lot of Mals in foster or abandoned. I took in Moose from the best doggy mom in the world because it was just too much. Their personalities vary as much as the human population. Bronson just don't care and don't really nead you me or anybody but thats an exception. You are very lucky thow if you get a non-couch eater. I kept Moose as long as he could go to work with me and every where else except the dash through the grocery store was problematic even though he was in the caddy with the ac on he howeled so much Cops got called on me. Eventually his mom got a stay at home job and he's back with her horse and pig and several other dogs but its been a hard road. Don't take this on lightly and don't you ever hurt a mal. There's a special place in hell for people who neglet or hurt the likes of Mal's, handicaped persons and children.
Thank you for making this video. I have. A school project called independent study and we study notes about anything non fiction and appropriate. I chose Alaskan Malamutes and this was a great video since it is due tomarrow June 5 2018!
Yes! Been waiting so long for this.
This breed is awesome. I love them they talk to you. They are like Pits with fur they love people.
These dogs are so professionally groomed at all times. Beautiful.
Odd enough, my malamute refuses to take baths, and hates being groomed, but still looks just as good as a show dog. Not sure how he does it but he just naturally smells good, and I have no idea why.
The children part reminds me of when I had my Mal at the park on a busy day and this kid ran up from nowhere to grab the dog, trying to climb up onto him. Severian kinda shook the kid off then pounced on the kid because now it playtime and if the kid wants to play rough Sev was going to match the intensity. This kid was yeeted suddenly by 85 pounds of puppy so hard they lost a shoe. Kid grabbed the shoe and ran off. Kept waiting for a parent to come yell at me about my viscous dog but never did. The entire thing took less than 5 seconds and was over before I could even react. Almost like the kid materialized then disappeared back to the nether. It could have been a more traumatic ending if my dog wasn’t decently trained and I hope the kid learned something about running at and climbing on strange dogs.
Our 2 year old girl loves and wants to say hi to everyone. This is our second Mal and have found them a very friendly breed ( ours anyways)
mine too. How does she get on with other dogs? just curious because my male seems very friendly with other dogs but has muscled up to a dog a couple of times, no fighting, i've managed to call him away but not sure what this behavior is.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ALASKAN MALAMUTE
spot on description
Thank you
Can you do one for the shiba inu, if you haven't yet? Lots of people get them mixed up with Huskies, Malamutes and sometimes Corgis due to physical likeness. Love your videos btw!! Thank you!
Awesome amazing beautiful
Beautiful breed
I'm actually pretty happy I'm getting one tommorow so
💖 Love the breed
A good point- malamutes aren’t fully developed mentally and physically until 5 years of age, mines 4 and still a big puppy!
I had a Malamute female with some wolf in it....she was loving, but would NOT take shit from anyone, even me as when she would get mad, she would get very serious. At mid life she weighed about 110 lbs, very large dog. BUt I knew her well and we were great friends. She lived to 13.5 years, and I miss her. Her name was Kaiya
#1should be....they are notorious escape artists..and will run the first chance they get...trust me...and they think it's a game!🤣💜🤣
I grew up with a malamute. She shared her food with our cat...
When are you going to travel to Oregon and do a video on the American Alsatian? A new breed, only 30 years old and the recreation of the Dire Wolf. And strictly a low keyed, very large companion dog.
Sleepy Coyote just looked it up for a little really interesting project. Do you have links that give good info on it?
i like it
My Alaskan malamute is really small and doesn’t have as much fluff even tho she’s fifteen lol! But she has barked honestly only ever 2/3 times like as a threatening/aggressive bark and she has no food problems with protecting herself/her food she’s an all around chill dog who is the opposite of aggressive lol
Another great one! Would love to see something on basenjis. There seems to be a lack of information out there on them.
I have a Basenji shoot schedule for next week. :)
I WISHD ID HAD DOG LIKE THAT
Great video, please do one about Shiba Inus next!
Man, you do a great job with these videos. You also have a good voice for this. Hoping one day you'll do a video on Bichon Frise.
I have a Shih Tzu who loves big dogs, he likes playing with big dogs more than little dogs, and he grew up around big dogs. I grew up with huskies when I was young, and my husky wasn't aggressive toward other dogs or people if we were around, but if we weren't around or we had to leave for bit she would be aggressive, she had trapped my uncle standing on the couch when he went into the house when we weren't there to take care of her one day, and she was aggressive with him that day, but never was when we were around him. We had cats growing up, and puppies, and another husky she never tried to attack them, but one time she ended up getting loose, and attacking the neigbors dog that was blind. So I know huskies can have an aggressive side sometimes, but what about Malamutes? I've seen a lot of Malamute videos where they are really good with smaller animals, but I just wanted to get some opinions, or stories on that.
Molto bello!!!!!!!!
Could you do a video on all the dogs you can use for hunting ?
Living with the Greek shepard i know its rare but if you could do it much appreciated because i live in greece and i picked one off the streets and ive heard its really hard to take care of its my first dog btw.
Alaskan malamutes are NOT food aggressive - IF brought up properly. THis (internet etc) myth is getting old!! It refers to any breed!! with my Malamute boy -food can be taken out his mouth (meat etc) by any one in my family - including 9 year girl - straight out of his mouth! - ANY time while he eats as much as You like it!! I Got him 1 year old. The breeder had 11 pack of Malamutes and each and every one would allow to do it ANY time!! And more so - he does all the tricks my German Shepherd does!! - just the learning "style" is different. (another myth of "untrainable malamute") . make no mistake - "food aggression" is tied to dog's upbringing! - not to breed!!
thx so much for this comment, I was getting depressed after reading such horrendous stuff about them... how do you recommend training them other than the normal way which is what I'm used to?
Agreed. So many myths about this breed it's ridiculous. "They can't be around cats," "They CAN'T learn recall" "They can't be outside it's too warm during the day" It was frustrating trying to sift through the bullshit.
Half a lifetime ago I had one who was a very light eater for a 115lb girl. Except the first frost usually made her want to feast. She went through 23 cans of wet in one night where she usually had half a can mixed with dry per day. If you’re wondering how the cans got opened she squeezed them until the lid popped off and ate the contents. Didn’t know she knew that trick until she did it. But still I can’t recall any food aggression on her part and would even share her bowl with our Labrador if she wasn’t particularly hungry.
I have a malamute, german sherpherd cross and no food aggression whatsoever. He loves his ball, but if another dog gets it he doesn't really bother, he will pay close attention till he gets it back but no aggression. I did have a shepherd lab cross yrs ago he was food aggressive but we didn't get him till he was 7yr old and he came that way.
All dogs breeds have food aggression, ALL NO EXCEPTIONS... The reason why people say that Alaskan Malamutes have food aggression problems is because they do, their food aggression instinct is one of the highest among all domesticated dog breeds. While I would agree with you that any Dog including Malamutes can be trained out of their food aggression acting like their food aggression doesn't exist won't help people proactively address behavioral problems. Especially newer Malamute/dog owners. Just because your dog is well trained or is more passive than other members of the breed doesn't mean that the breed is not known for a particular issue.
This is how malamutes should look. I see so many overweight mals on youtube or in poor condition, its unbelievable. These show dogs are in great condition and are beautiful.
I WISHD ID HAD AN ALASKAN MALAMUTE

Can you do Saint Bernard?
None of mine have ever been aggressive over their food thats bs, and they learn extremely fast as long as you are dominant with them, but if they know youre the pack leader they will do anything you ask of them at the snap of a finger
Do Samoyeds next please!
He's got every other big fluffball on here, why not Samoyeds? Also, maybe he should put in a picture of the mountain of hair you'll get when he/she blows his/her coat so people can see just how much work it is.

Oh also there are 2 things I was wondering if they could be answered. 1. She does this weird thing where instead of eating food from her bowl she picks the food up out of it and drops it on the floor then eats it. 2. She sneezes when she is upside down, like when she rolls over.
i wishd id had 5 alaskanmalamutes
It would be great if you could do some small breed videos, half the dog world is missing from your repertoire.
