Can Malamutes live inside?
Since this is a large breed who needs to be active and loves being outdoors, I don't suggest you get a Malamute if you live in an apartment. She needs space to roam and a garden to play and run in.
Can you leave a Malamute home alone?
Malamutes don't relish being left alone, and will become destructive if you leave them for half a day or a full day. They can be alone for a few hours as long as they are well exercised beforehand.
Are Alaskan Malamute lazy?
Malamute love to run and spends energy, especially when the temperature is bellow 0. When Malamute is in their home, he was sleeping and resting. Not because he is lazy, but because in Alaska, dogs use all free time to rest and save energy for next day.
Is an Alaskan Malamute a good first dog?
Like the Siberian Husky, the Alaskan Malamute needs a firm leader and isn't the ideal dog of choice for a first-time owner, unless you're really willing to put the work in. Similar to the Siberian Husky, her obstinacy can be confused with not having much upstairs, but she is, in fact, an intelligent dog.
