Billa's Story

Billa is Looking for His Leader, His Alpha<br/><br/>We went to great lengths to rescue Billa from a crowded NYC shelter where he was surrendered by his family and scheduled to be euthanized for space. At just 4 years old, Billa had already endured a life of neglect—living mostly outdoors with little love or care.<br/><br/>Billa recently completed an intensive 4-week board and train program. He knows all his commands and is well-trained. But like any smart dog, he thrives with structure. He needs someone who will keep reinforcing his training, guide him with calm confidence, and help him feel secure. Billa needs a leader—someone he can trust, respect, and follow.<br/><br/>He’s affectionate, loyal, talkative, and truly just wants to be close to his person. He leans in for pets, adores attention, and once he bonds, he’ll be your shadow.<br/><br/>Why Billa is Special:<br/>- Professionally trained<br/>- Walks perfect on a leash<br/>- Non-reactive and calm<br/>- Loves long walks & hikes<br/>- Neutered, vaccinated, microchipped<br/>-80 lbs of goofy giant<br/>-Stunning in person — photos don’t do him justice<br/>-Full of personality once he’s comfortable<br/><br/><br/>That said, Billa is sensitive—as many malamutes are. New places and people can make him nervous at first, but with a little patience, he warms up beautifully. He’s not a social butterfly right away, but once he trusts you, you’ll have a loyal friend for life.<br/><br/>We are seeking an adult only home for Billa with no kids and no cats.<br/><br/>Foster-to-adopt option available.<br/><br/>TO APPY FOR ADOPT BILLA, PLEASE READ BELOW:<br/><br/>Please submit an application on www.gwarp.org or copy and paste: https://gwarp.org/adoption-application/ in your browser.
