Alaskan Malamutes

The Alaskan Malamute is not a Wolf, it is a breed of domesticated dog that has been bred for hundreds of years to perform a purpose for man - in this case, pulling sleds across ice and snow. Wolves have not been domesticated, and therefore cannot be kept as pets without the animal suffering from stress and showing dangerous wild behaviours. Although the Alaskan Malamute dog and Wolves have some visible resemblances, this is just because that is the way the Malamute has been bred to look like by humans. The Siberian Husky is also often confused with being a Wolf, but is actually also a domestic breed of dog.

overnight for sleeping, apart from that they need a good sized dog run if you are not going to be there.the longest you would leave one in a dog run IMHO is no more than 10hours.they need loads of exercise so not a dog to get if you want to leave it alone in a run all the time.

You should pack clothing you can layer. This means things like long underwear, a fleece, and anything waterproof. You'll need running shoes with good traction for any hiking (if you plan on doing that) and things to protect you from the sun, such as brimmed hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Also pack light winter hats, gloves, and scarves, and summer clothing if you plan on going during the summer. If you plan on fishing then get a fishing license and, of course, don't forget you camera! Don't forget to pack a medium or large bag, binoculars, passport, a watch or alarm clock, a swimsuit, a small first aid kit, and mosquito repellent.

== == * Stranger things have happened. If you have a coon hound pup and a kitten and raise them together then it's highly possible they will be friends. I have 2 dogs and a cat I call, 'The Three Amigos' and they go everywhere together, play, go camping with us, fishing, etc. Me thinks my cat thinks she's a dog! It goes with the dog, every dog is different. I don't believe that the dogs are house dogs, they are hunting dogs in their heart. * My bear dogs won't even sniff a house cat, but if I hadn't trained them they would have torn the cat apart. -------------------------------------------------------------- My Experience with Walkers and Cats: : They can be compatible. I picked up a stray (probably lost) Walker hound who was about 2 years old. Their natural inclination is to hunt - that means cats, too. We have two house cats, and she paid a little TOO much attention to them at first. We just had to watch her closely for a while, and make it clear that they were not raccoons. If you have a e-collar, giving her a sharp zap when appropriate will get the message across. They're all great pals now - though sometimes the dog likes to play a little rough and I've got to intervene. : Stray cats are another issue - a walker hound (or any hound) WILL go after an unfamiliar cat, especially if the cat runs, as it will be inclined to do. It may kill it if given the opportunity. I've seen it happen, unfortunately.

It depends on the type of cat we are talking about, and the size of the alaskan malamute. If a large alaskan malamute fought a bobcat, the alaskan malamute would definitely win the fight. Against a siberian tiger, the alaskan malamute would be an easy target to be killed by the tiger.

They eat 1/2 as less as the average non dancer.

They both come from cold climates and were bred for the same reason; to pull sleighs across ice. They are also both in the Spitz group and came from the same backgrounds.

They should look more similar to each other than to, say, a Poodle. Beyond that, however, they are actually very different in appearance. The Malamute is heavier boned; his ear-set is wider; his tail curls to the side (for starters). Siberians have medium bone and a high, closer ear-set, and carry their tails directly over the back. Malamutes are more draft animal; Siberians pull light loads at moderate speeds over long distances. The breeds' bodies reflect their work or, as breeders say: form follows function.

The Siberian Husky and Alaskan Malamute are both classified in the Working Group (UK) and were both originally bred to pull sleds in cold regions. They are different as the Alaskan Malamute is usually taller and heavier than a Siberian Husky, plus the Siberian Husky can have blue eyes; whereas the Alaskan Malamute cannot.

Biting and chewing at their paws is often a symptom of an allergic reaction to their food. Try simplifying your dog's food to a salmon and brown rice OR a Lamb and brown rice diet for a few weeks. If the chewing stops or at least slows, you'll know you are on the right track. You can start reintroducing proteins and vegetables but only one at a time. If your dog starts chewing on their paws again, remove the last food item from their diet and go from there. Of course, a vet visit is always a good idea to be sure your 'best friend' is free from serious illness!

Usually an Akita would be stronger than a Malamute, unless the Malamute was particularly large. Akitas are generally bigger and have more muscle tone/weight than Malamutes, so in most cases an Akita would be stronger.

The Alaskan malamute is a type of domestic dog. It has a thick coat of fur to protect it from the Arctic cold and powerful legs to help it run.

He is sick yes, and it could be from a bunch of different things. Bring him to the emergency vet (use a search engine and search your local area for 24 hr veterinary hospitals) and try to tell them everything he has eaten or gotten into. If he has been anywhere different or has had anything new to eat. Black in vomit doesn't mean blood, if it were in his bowls it could indicate blood processed by the digestive system meaning he ingested it and it went all the way through, or he has internal bleeding at the beginning of his digestive tract. But thats not his case right now, vomit is. Black isn't normal to be vomiting. Be prepared for radiographs to be taken as the hospital may wish to see what his stomach contents are and what his abdomen looks like internally.

9 years.

23 inches (58cm) and 75lb (34kg) for females, 25 inches (64cm) and 85lb (39kg) for males. Heavier Malamutes (90lb or 41kg) and Malamutes smaller than 75lb (34kg) are also seen. If you want to see the biggest Alaskan Malamute you've ever seen, search "enormous Alaskan Malamute puppy" in Google images.

i have been told that if they have any color eyes than brown they aren't truly pure bred.

Both the Pomeranian and the Alaskan Malamute are Spitz breed dogs. To my knowledge this is the only common characteristic of the two dogs.
