Any Q


What temperature is too hot for a Malamute?

Malamutes and other cold-weather breeds would rather be outdoors on cool mornings and evenings, so schedule walks and playtime for those hours. As a rule, limit strenuous activity when the temperature is 70 degrees or higher, though. It may not seem hot to you, but you're not wearing a fur coat.

Can Alaskan Malamute survive hot climate?

Not surprisingly, Malamutes are sensitive to heat. They're Arctic dogs, not designed by nature to live in hot, humid environments. If your Malamute lives in the Sunbelt, be sure to provide them with plenty of shade, fresh water, and air conditioning during the summer, and avoid exercise in the heat of the day.

How long does a Malamute stay in heat?

Heat usually lasts between 2-4 weeks. Early in the cycle, a female dog may not be receptive to male dogs, although some are receptive through the entire cycle. It can be shorter or longer and you'll know the cycle is over when all her vulva returns to its normal size and there's no more bleeding or discharge.
