Malamutes are a large breed of dog.
on average there body weight and height are..
HeightMale - Range from 24-26 Inches (61-66 cm)Female - Range from 22-24 Inches (56-61 cm)
WeightMale - Range from 80-95 Pounds ( 36-43 kg)Female - Range from 70-85 Pounds ( 32-38 kg)
but they can easily go over that height and weight.
i have a male Malamute and he weighs over 60 kg. he's a big boy =]
The biggest that I have ever seen is a past teacher's malamute.
around 115lbs
We had one that was probably 150 pounds

The official Kennel Club Breed Standard stipulates that Alaskan Malamutes should reach between 23 and 28 inches at the shoulder - so they can vary in height considerably. They usually weigh between 85-125 pounds, depending on their height.

Depends. My Alaskan Malamute mix is 70 some pounds and stands about an inch higher than my yellow lab. I do not know what she is mixed with but considering that a full grown Alaskan Malamute can weigh up to 115 pounds and not be over weight I would say she is on the small end.
They grow quite big. You can normally tell by the size of their paws.
up to 18months old
No, an Alusky is a mix between an Alaskan Malamute and Siberian Husky. An Alaskan Husky is a purebred dog.
The dog who played in the movie "Passengers' was most likely a Siberian Husky or a Siberian Husky/Alaskan Malamute mix.
Probably the closest breed to a husky would be the Alaskan Malamute which is pretty much a stronger-built husky. Another similar breed could be a German Shepherd Dog, with its speed, strength, loyalty, and similarity to wolves. Or another breed could be the Alaskan Klee Kai, which is pretty much a miniature husky.
An Alaskan Malamute/Siberian Husky mix is a cross breed and a hybrid because a cross breed is a hybrid. In this case, a hybrid would be defined as the offspring of two different breeds of dogs which is what a cross breed is as well.
Any cross breed is generally referred to as a mutt or mongrel. I've heard them called Aluskies before, but it's not a term that's been officially recognised.
Lets just say if you have a small apartment it will have a little space to move around
The alaskan malamute is a little bit wider and more furry than a siberian husky, but a siberian husky is a little bit thinner and have sharper ears. An alaskan malamute has more strength and better skills in pulling sleds than a siberian husky. A siberian husky has blue eyes is faster than an alaskan malamute, while an alaskan malamute has a thicker head and small brown eyes. Siberian huskies have sharper teeth than alaskan malamutes, which have bigger jaws.
Alaskan Malamutes are stockier in build than Siberian Huskies. Also, Malamutes most of the time have brown eyes while Huskies sometimes have blue eyes. The main reason a Husky can have brown eyes is if it's a mix and the main reason a Malamute can have blue eyes is if it's a mix.
I have a golden husky and he weighs in at 76lbs
Alaskan huskies are not an actual breed but consist of a mix of Siberian huskies, Wolves and/or usually gun dogs like the labrador to improve sled pulling. If you are interested in Huskies check out the Alaskan Malamute.
Pitbulls husky mix can weight any were from 70-80 lbs is about the normal weight for this mix of breed.
The actual cross between a Malamute and a Shepherd breed is quite popular and some owners actually call them a 'Shepalute' but with the Husky mixed in only makes it a Mongrel I'm afraid. Just because the cross between an Alaskan Malamute and a German Shepherd Dog has been given a "name" does not make is any less of a mongrel. A pure breed is one that has consistently reproduced the same characteristics in offspring over many, many generations. You can not reliably expect the puppies from Malamute/Shepherd breedings to look the same. Some will have more traits from one breed, and some from the other. This is at odds with the definition of "purebred." With the Siberian in the mix or not, the so-called Shepalute is a mutt.
