Description
Dog Breed: Alaskan Malamute (medium coat). Meet the ever-so-handsome Tien! Tien turns heads on the regular because of his piercing baby blues. He can be nervous both in new situations and with new people but once he gets comfortable, he is as silly as can be. Tien loves engaging in solo play with his toys, going on sniffy leash walks, and getting pets from his close friends. In true malamute fashion, Tien is a vocal guy who isn't shy about communicating his needs and opinions, so adopters who don't mind the music are a must! He is looking for an adopter who is excited to continue his positive reinforcement training, and would do best with someone who is home more often than they are away. Tien is looking for an adult-only home as the only dog.

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.
