About the Alaskan Malamute
Named after the nomadic Mahlemut Inuit tribe, the Alaskan Malamute was developed as a powerful sled dog, renowned for its ability to pull heavy loads over great distances. Built to survive its environment, this Spitz-like breed possesses a thick double coat, even furred ears, that protects it from extreme cold, allowing it to sleep outdoors in all weathers. Its waving, plumed tail is a distinctive hallmark of the breed's type.
