Description
Dog Breed: Alaskan Malamute (medium coat). Courtesy Post – Rehoming Needed This dog is not at the shelter. Meet Polo – a playful and spirited 8-month-old male Alaskan Malamute (white). ✔️ Spayed/Neutered: No ✔️ Vaccines: Not current ✔️ Potty trained: No ✔️ Crate trained: No Polo has been with his family for about 3 months. Due to housing challenges, they are no longer able to keep him. As a young Malamute, Polo is full of energy and still learning his manners. He is friendly with children, excitable with visitors, and loves to play. His owner notes that he has shown snapping when boundaries aren’t clear, so he will need an experienced adopter committed to training, socialization, and structure as he matures. Polo has not yet learned consistent potty training or crate training, so his new home should be prepared to continue his basic training and guide him as he grows. With time, patience, and activity, Polo has the potential to be a loyal and loving companion. If you are interested in adopting Polo, please contact his owner, Keanu, directly: Phone: (916) 308-3699 Email: keanu.salahuddingmail All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months). All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.

Overview:
The Alaskan Malamute is a powerful and ancient arctic breed, originating from the Mahlemut Inupiaq people of Alaska, where they were indispensable for hauling heavy sleds and assisting hunters. Physically, they are a large, robust spitz-type dog, easily recognizable by their thick double coat (typically grey and white, or red and white), strong build, and often striking dark almond-shaped eyes that convey an intelligent and gentle expression. Temperamentally, Malamutes are known for being affectionate, loyal, and playful with their families, but also possess an independent streak and a strong prey drive. While generally good with children when properly socialized, their size and strength necessitate supervision. They are definitely not suited for apartment living due to their high energy levels and need for ample exercise; a home with a secure yard and active owners is ideal. Regarding health, common concerns include hip and elbow dysplasia, bloat, and certain eye conditions. Potential owners should be prepared for their grooming needs and commitment to consistent training.
