  • I heard that pure breed dogs like the Malamute are becoming extinct because people are getting these designer dogs(mutts) like Ladradooles etc. I heard that Malamutes and some other pure breed dog is becoming extinct. So if you like pure breed dogs get the word out so we can tray to save them.

  • i just got a german shephard malamute mix

  • 240 p... we meet again.

  • Nice video, i love these dogs... Do you think texas would be an ok enviorment with the heat? If not, could you list more dogs like this who can be in texas heat.. Thanks

  • My friend has one, but i feel sorry for it.. our summers get pretty warm here! :(

  • my malamute has beautiful blue eyes

  • @IYUSG isn't he a mix if he has blue eyes? I thought malamutes don't have blue eyes?

  • I own an alaskan malamute! Hes the best dog ever :D

  • I have always wanted one

  • LMAO Random Ass Funy Ending!! XD

  • GAT ONE!!!!

  • If they get growly or snappy you can't back off from them. You need to grab them by the top of the muzzle and tell them very firmly "No". Wolves bite each other on the muzzle to show dominance so you will be showing them you are in charge.

    Hope this helps the new owners.

  • I have a malamute who is almost 6. They have to be very carefully trained and socialized around people and animals. You need to handle their paws A LOT. This gets them used to being touched by humans. They won't like it at first but you have to do it.

    You also need to food train them by holding their bowl while they eat, moving it away for a few seconds, and giving it right back. It trains them to know you control the food and that you will never let them go hungry. It also stops bowl aggressi

  • my grandpa got rid of mine cuz he didnt like it...i almost cried

  • the shed......LIKE CRAAAZZZZYYYYYY but they're so cute :3

  • I want one for went i get my new flat

  • we had this dog, unfortunaley, it died ;(

  • @Lazyier123 Way to go.. Mood Killer.

  • @MrSystemShocker these dogs, are one of the most imperessive dogs in history (i think so). They are cute, nice and they love to be out and run and play.

  • This is for mirankanin,

    To tell u they don't like touching or holding their head unless get use to it from puppy age,y one so timid. Can do anything

  • Our family have one which we adore as a family member, any one can see him on my utube Vedic page that he is on the treadmill doing his exersise

  • Nice video! LOVE this breed :) My mal pup is 5 months old now :D Check out my puppy videos!x

  • Ugh if only i lived in the cold weatherrrr!!!! Living in the northern part of Utah....yeah not optimal for a Malamute :(

  • @FlowzTheRhythm we live in Georgia right now and we have 2 Malamutes.. they do ok in the summer.. and our breeder is in Texas.. They def prefer the cooler weather but Kodi (my oldest) just lived inside all summer and was happy about it. Our other Mal is only 20wks old so i haven't seen him in the heat too much but really you can get one in Utah they adjust :)

  • @16Jevk Haha thanks:) Is your breeder local, im actually interested in driving down there and bringing one into my home. You might wanna inbox me the personal info for safety lol. But thanks, im so happy. i mean thats just great news for me to hear.

  • mirnaknin,With a mal u have the closest thing to a wolf you can get. Our mal does not like excess affection, if someone trys to pat him on top of his head he growls and shows teeth. scratching under the chin is ok. It takes time for a mal to bond with you (unlike a golden). They are very responsive to posture/body language. Usually i hug/scratch my mal first thing in morning but after that no way. Our first few months were very frustraing and we nearly gave him up. perserve. it is worth it.

  • @ookalik42 thanks for the advice! turns out that she doesnt like her chest being touched, after a few times of touching her chest, it wasn't growling anymore it was panic, maybe she was the runt of the litter, & the other puppies pushed her around, when she came to us she had a small wound on her back, and 2 others that were healing. she is a lot better now, she only growls if she finds a bone outside and we try to take it away, during feeding time she doesnt growl at all

  • Mirnaknin. Our male mal is 1.5 yrs now. What a journey so far. Here is my advice to you. Be pack leader from start. Do not yell or hit. We have found ignoring/removing your presence to be effective with jumping/mouthing. Do not use a prong collar if aggression increases when wearing. We use 2 collars and leads. one choker for backup and a gentle leader head harness for correction. Be prepared for dog/dog aggression. Most dogs do not know how to approach a dominant dog, which a mal usually is.

  • @ookalik42 thanks for the reply! i have not yelled at her, i try to talk to her in a stern voice. she seems to be a calm submissive dog, but the other day, i hugged her and she growled and showed teeth. i tried hugging her again and again and giving treats, and nothing, she only does this sometimes, and i tried to grab her collar, and she growled and turned her head towards me, like she was trying to snap at me. i dont understand what im doing wrong!

  • email me rgrantw@tbaytel.net

  • Ok that's it I am moving to Minnesota.

  • MY MALAMUTES MOTHER WAS A CHAMPION

  • I HAVE ONE

  • Omg!!!! I'm dying laughing from the end!!!! I can't breath! I can't breath!!

  • i'm getting my first malamute tomorrow!!!!!

  • @LuckyStarWishCake the title clearly says "ALASKAN MALAMUTE" 

  • When I first saw this dog in person I remember thinking "there is no way this is a Siberian Husky," but nearly everyone I know thought that. I cheated a little though, I got to pet the dog and he was rock solid, I mean real muscular, he was no "fat looking siberian husky." I just remember those bones, the dog is just POWER.

  • how the fuck can you dislike this!!!

  • @LuckyStarWishCake i hope you're joking

  • I wish i had one :(

  • @poppyaje im getting one :)

  • @thewhiteman67 wow lucky you... i live in tropical country,

    so i guess i can't have one ever

  • @poppyaje A Malamute can be owned in any weather, but if you do intend on getting one you just have take precautions. In hot climate Malamutes should be indoor dogs, and when you exercise them make sure its only early in the morning or at night, and keeping water at hand. I know people in Texas who own Malamutes, and they're doing just fine :)

  • @poppyaje I have one that is turning 2 in march and OMG when she was a puppy she would scratch at the carpet cleaner if she went in the house and she is such a NUT! you would love one!

  • I must point this out because I heard the narrator say siberian huskies have blue eyes and malamutes have brown, while this is true, huskies also have brown eyes and bi colored eyes not just blue

  • I previously had a Siberian Husky as my pet, and she was the best dog I could ever ask for. Very affectionate, cute and cuddly. I'd imagine the Alaskan Malamute is similar to them and I would like to get an Alaskan Malamute within the next 2-3 years. :)

  • I have a malamute/german shepherd cross. he's beautiful and really friendly, but he does like to run away on his own.

  • we meet again 240p ...

  • guys i got a malamute puppy but he chases my cat aha but im worried that he might be very agressive towards other dogs that means i cant realy take him out for walks around parks can any one help me out and reply thanks ;)

  • @XxMalamutexX we have two Malamutes and 2 cats.. our malamutes chase those cats like no ones business and the cats taunt them back. But BOTH dogs get along with every dog they meet unless the other dog is aggressive. My suggestion is to take the dog everywhere with you to meet as many people and other dogs as possible. Both our dogs I sent to day care so they could play all day in a large pack of dogs. I've never had a problem with either one.

  • @16Jevk i dont think they have a day care in england for dogs tho lol :(

  • @XxMalamutexX aw :( They are fairly new here in the States, but work wonders w/ socialization. you should open one in England! Make a boat load of money! haha day care here is $20 for the day and they do boarding and have other services like grooming & training. The place here we take our dogs they don't even crate at night. the dogs get a room sometimes shared w/ a couch & water etc if more than 1 dog is to a room then someone stays the night at the facility. it's really great.

  • @16Jevk i think i found one hehe i looked online for ages xD

  • @16Jevk $20 for the day?? Wherre I live they charge $35 to $90!!!

  • my female great with people and fine with other dogs but if another dog snaps at her she goes for the kill it's pretty scary how fast she can take down another dog.

  • mine bolts and always gets loose

  • fuck my life :( I can't get a malamute because i'm too YOUNG... 16 years old.. :(

  • @wanN1337 If it makes you feel any better, I'm 21 and my parents still won't let me get one. :(

  • @GameShowUploader omfg fml, they told me i had to be around 20 to get one -.-

  • @wanN1337 My parents want me to become successful at my business and make a ton of money, before they'll let me get one. By then, I'll be too old to actually have fun and take care of one. =(

  • @GameShowUploader :( shit..

  • It s my favourite dog!

  • but wat about the summer

  • I still want mine later this year. =) I <3 them.

  • any1 seen the movie the thing? was that dog a malamute?

  • never take this for a guard dog.

  • @urbandarito Why??

    

  • @ksjamb21 it's so friendly and welcoming to strangers.

  • Do mals typically destroy or damage furniture, carpets etc ? is that something they do every now and then when their puppies?

  • that show dog looks like a bear, he's so perfect.

  • had someone to give me a dog? please

  • Weird how they look like huskys, but bigger!

  • have had 3 mals

  • no it is not it i syberian husky!

  • @simloverfever No, it's a Malamute

  • the breeder of tyler is nanuke alaskan malamutes

  • They're so fluffeeeh :D

  • "hunting polarbears" whoa!

  • 02:08 - "Ohhhh yeahhhh, thaaat's the spot...."

  • Tylers tail seems to be wrong, very thin it should be more bushy.

  • i have alaskan malamutes, thay are very cheeky!

  • i want a malamute :)

  • i only said "wow" "aww" "whoaa" in the duration of the video, except on the last part, which i ROFL'd

  • I love this dogs. maybe you like my making-of-clip from an photoshooting with malamutes on my profile

  • am i the only one who cracked up at the end X'D

  • Fail 2:52

  • Awwww.

  • I met one of these dogs at an agricultural show recently and he was very freindly and sociable. I was amazed that he was up to my Waist in when on all fours and I'm 5' 8" and he went up on his hind legs and was 3 inches taller it was the ccoolest dog i had ever seen

  • these dogs are really vicious and it ate my maltese dog and crushed her windpipe never buy one of these dogs

  • has nothing to say but

    "it's so fluffy I'm gonna die!"

  • these dogs are stupid. or 3 certain ones. they killed my friends chuahaha "( chew wa wa)

  • @snowboardskater1102 the breed is acctually preety smart, your friends dog probally bite one of them first as chuahaha are always known to be a snappy violent breed

  • @snowboardskater1102 You're friend's chihuahua must have been a huge pain, then. All Malamutes I've met are not "stupid".

  • yeah i like how the guy steps on his child at the end

  • Before my favortie dog was Huskies... now it is Alaskan Malamutes xD

    But I don't wanna have one as it maby will hate the summers in Sweden... maby I'll move to the Tundra in Norway and get an Alanskan Malamute... :3

  • Beautiful animals!

  • ah this vid reminds me of my neibors dog so fluffy and cute and she looooves snow

  • are they good with other animals, like a cat?

  • @NYmikeFL I have an Alaskan Malamute, and she's sooooo lovely with my cat! She treats him like his mom even if he's a year older than her hahaha And when she sees a cat outside, she doesn't bark, just look curious. And I don't have her since she was little, she had a year when she came home and started playing with my cat from the beginning! I just know that she's nice with ferrets too, 'cause my friend has one and they play too.

  • I like how the kid falls down on his face and the guy just leaves him there to go after the dogs.

  • Lol, anyone else notice that kid face plant in the snow at the end? XD

  • Tyler is abso-fuckin'-lutely BEE-YOO-TIFUL!!.. these dogs are so charming, it's unfair!!

  • i had a alaskan malamute once i miss her

  • great dogs!!!i adore them!!!!we managed to rescue 7 of them and adopted by a single family all seven of them...check them out!!!

  • just gotta love how animal planet still says "Indians" when referring to Native Americans. It's like calling an American a "Brit" just because they are white skinned. Or calling a Jew a Muslim, just because they are both from the Middle East. I'll get off my soap box now.

  • Rambo 1984-1996 :'[

  • I love all types of dogs, but I *ABSOLUTELY* love these dogs and I really do want one, but the thing is is that I reside in Houston, Texas which is notorious for its unbearable heat during the summer and I have heard that these types of dogs require a lot of excercise, not to mention shed heavily.

    Also, what is the difference between a regular Malamute and a Giant Malamute?

  • lol at the end

  • lol, so whats the real difference between a husky and malamute??

  • @njgamer19 Didn't you watch the video at 0:51

  • @njgamer19

    Alaskan Malamutes are generally bigger and stockier than Huskies, and malamutes cannot have blue eyes. At all. Their eyes are more squinted and they are generally calmer. Except my puppy, he has too much. xD

  • I've had a husky and many malamutes. Mals are definitely not as high-strung as their little cousin huskies. Google "Howl At The Moon Malamutes" to see the many sizes, coat types and colors.

  • I have a Malamute Alaskan!!!! It is 5 months old and it is wonderful!!! Its such a great dog, and very sociable!! n_n

  • I'd love to have one in the future, though I'm pretty sure it's breed with similar behaviour as Syberian Husky, ie. they really need some serious activities all day long and without proper attention they just break free like they smaller cousins (or just don't obey and do various stupid things like opening fridge and eating all the food inside). IMO it's a very good dog to have, but only if you're experienced owner.

  • new germany-minisota i´m from the "old germany" ;)

  • If I ever move to Alaska, the first things I'm going to get are a Casull .454 and a malamute.

  • Oh my god, did that guy just totally jack the sled from the kid in the last few seconds of the video? That was awesome! XD

  • Malamutes are a wonderful dog. I have a Samoyed and a mutt but perhaps oneday I'll own a malamute. They are a sweet dog, but you need to know how to control them, and you also have to be willing to have an animal that will have their own decision process.

  • Mine is 2 years old and is the friendliest dog in the world. Even though they're known for being so friendly though, he's so loyal that when he senses danger, he does come to my defense. We have had a break in, and he did not run up to him wagging his tail, He got in their face and did the meanest growl I've ever seen. The dog is so big the guy just turned around and ran out. They are acceptable guard dogs.

  • @ALMisFBR

    Same here, my girl protected my father when a pit bull tried to attack him in our yard. The other dog didn't stand a chance but they are both well now.

  • @MagicAavelyn Wow! Really? So it totally beat off the pitbull?

  • @immahotpepper

    Most definitely. My mal, Glacier, just locked teeth until my dad called her, but the pit tried to attack her again and she put it to the floor to make sure it wouldn't hurt him. Also, Glacier has this thing were she has to check on anybody and if anybody is gone, she whines and has to be calmed down. She's 13 years old now and my baby. <3

  • @immahotpepper yeah thats quite impressive, why not train malamutes as fighters then... of course im not condoning dog fights but, hey, makes you wonder...

  • @IMFRIENDSWITHOWLS because most people respect their dogs

  • This is my favorite breed. many breed are like him, for example, Siberian Husky, Alaskan Klee Kai, Alaskan Husky, canadian Eskimo Dog, Miniature Siberian Husky, ...

  • Malamutes rule. Wimpy dogs need not apply .

  • @beerbrain420  My libby could tear ur malamute apart.

  • @TheAmazingamerica LOL, so this is what you're reduced to now? A Nazi consigned to irrelevance, and has nothing better to say than "my dog can beat up your dog." Very sad. Then why I am I laughing??

  • @beerbrain420 LOL, anyway, she might not be able to get her mouth around all that hair. Malamutes have huge necks. I'm stalking u on my breaks, I'm busy making dirt/compost, I got out of shape this winter.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheAmazingamerica my akita could tear you apart

  • @Proof24s she better do it before my american bull dog tears u apart.

  • @TheAmazingamerica I would rather defend myself on my own than let my dog fight other dog

  • @Proof24s ok, then it is you against my dog.

  • Beautiful. Im going to own one when i get my own house for sure!

  • lmao at the kid decking it at the end

  • I have one. He is 12 years old and kinf of a independent dog, needs only company, running and food. He is not a watchdog but commands respect because it is big dog. U need to be patient to make him obey. I like him so much he is very kind and friendly. He was ill only once during 12 years. I hope he will live next 5 years

  • can u have a alaskan malamute in a not to hot but not to cold weather but hot summers if u keep grooming them and not let the fur get to heavy or would still be uncomfortable for them

  • if it eats my carpets ill sell him to the koreans for dog meat... only joking i love dogs and animals would never be cruel to one.

  • sorry i had to laugh at the kid falling over at 2:53

  • Alaskan Malamutes MUST have regular opportunities to vent their energy.

  • Now I want one. ^o^

  • I had one, he did not like the heat of summer and they shed a lot, very sociable too, not much on barking, just howls and not a very good watch/guard dog because they are so friendly, a burglar could break into your house and they would be wagging there tails to get a petting! All in all they are the best dog breed (to me) around! BTW, mine died from cancer @ 6 years old, I miss him so much!

  • @marnisarah Sounds good, but sad that it died.;(

    We are thinking to buy one, have always love alaskan malamute/huskies.

  • @marnisarah thats so sad! :'( sorry for ur loss.

  • @marnisarah A Dog is what you make it, be it a guard Dog, companion etc, Dogs aren't born a certain way, it's how they're moulded throughout life, just like humans.

  • @marnisarah that is really interesting! i had a malamute mix as well. she died of cancer at 14. she was EXACTLY as you explained. very sociable, never barked until late age, super friendly. mine was mixed with german shepard, though, so she didn't have the really thick coat.

  • @marnisarah i'm so sorry. i know how it is to lose a dog. it's been about 5 months ago and i still think about him every day

  • @marnisarah My girl lived to 6 and suffered the same fate as yours. Great dogs if their owners are prepared to spend the time that they need,

  • @marnisarah Awwwww that is sooo sad, I have an Huskamute and I don't know what I'd do without him :-( Hugs x

  • @marnisarah Any tips im getting one :)

  • @marnisarah I'm sorry for yout dog. :( My malamute had cancer 2 years ago but got operated and she's fine now. :D

    But about guarding...Oh, Luna is great as a guard dog. But we trained her for that. She used to watch me when I was home alone as kid.

  • @marnisarah sorry to hear he died :'( xx

  • I had one, he did not like the heat of summer and they shed a lot, very sociable too, not much on barking, just howls and not a very good watch/guard dog because they are so friendly, a burglar could break into your house and they would be wagging there tails to get a petting! All in all they are the best dog breed (to me) around! BTW, mine died from cancer @ 6 years old, I miss him so muc!

  • I would love one of these, in Lexington Kentucky we have very cold weathers but we have very humid/hot summers - so it's impossible to have one in the heat of summer here. What beautiful dogs.

  • When I get a malamute I'm going to name him Rowdy :)

  • Man, what an intelligent looking dog.

  • I want one of these so bad.

  • CAN U HAVE THEM IN A HOTTER CLIMATE IF U GROOM THEM ALOT

  • @pimptricks depends where you live don't think grooming would help

  • i use to love this show

  • These dogs are soooo adorable. They probably shed like crazy, though!

  • BOOM FACE PLANT.

  • sad that I can't have one. I live in a tropical country..

  • I miss having malamutes.. My parents used to breed them, now they breed silly Siberian Husky's. :(.

  • could i have one in florida?

  • @AustinsBroadcast Just keep your A.C. really cold, and try not to leave them out in the sun too long

  • i got a Alaskan malamute he's very big and red haired and loves 2 swim and is a very powerful lovely dog

  • i actually thought i had a mix husky, but after watching this and lookin at info and comparing it to my dog she is more of a mix malamute :) either way i still love her <3

  • Such beautiful dogs.

  • I have been watching a couple of these videos. Does anybody know a dog breed that's good for beginners?

  • @getchaNerdOn ya you should get ekunova medium breed !

  • @getchaNerdOn probably a Labrador or golden retriever (if you want a larger breed)

  • @getchaNerdOn short haired labs. No serious grooming, generally healthy dogs, very loving and great around kids. The only problem is you need an actual yard and they love to run around. Other than that though there perfect.

  • i acutally really love this breed

  • i have a malamute mix with doberman and he hates water and the rain
