The detail
One of the oldest Arctic sled breeds, the Malamute was bred to haul heavy loads over long distances, not to race. It is powerful, affectionate and friendly with people, but independent, strong-willed and often intolerant of other dogs.
What to weigh
Malamutes dig, pull hard on leash, chase small animals and can be dog-selective, especially same-sex. They blow coat dramatically and are uncomfortable in hot climates.
