How long should I walk my Alaskan Malamute?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Malamutes need a minimum of two hours of heavy exercise every day. This can be spent running and walking so they can let off steam. As well as this they'll also need extra playtime, free time in the garden and training to help keep their brains active too.


How do you exercise an Alaskan Malamute?

Chasing their favourite ball or toy will keep your Alaskan Malamute occupied for hours and, with any luck, they'll kick it around themselves for a while and give you a break. Or, take the toy with you on a walk and give your Alaskan Malamute an even longer run!

Can Alaskan Malamutes go off leash?

First of all, forget all the myths that Malamutes cannot be trained properly, should never be let off the leash, etc. The success of training a Malamute depends solely on understanding its instincts and psychology.

How many hours a day do Malamutes sleep?

The average can change from breed to breed but most adult dogs will sleep anywhere between 8 to 13.5 hours a day. Dogs spend a big part of their day either sleeping or relaxing. Apart from the fact that they experience much less REM sleep time than us, they are also balls of energy when they are active.

How long can you leave a Malamute 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.
