Our Mission
Our missions is to identify and rescue Alaskan Malamutes that have been abused, neglected, abandoned or surrendered by their owners to MMR or to a shelter, or brought to shelters as strays in Idaho, Utah, N Nevada, Wyoming and Montana. We have been rescuing Malamutes for 20 years. We provide foster care and help with basic socialization and training to improve adoptability. Donated funds are primarily used to help provide medical care including vaccinations, spaying or neutering and facilitate adoption to approved permanent homes.
Adoption Policy
Minimum Requirements
We will not adoption if:
You are under 23 years of age.
You do not have a well fenced yard. Well fenced is defined as a minimum height of 5′ tall (some dogs will need a higher fence) with no gaps or spaces over 3″ wide, and an equally sturdy gate that cannot be lifted off its hinges easily, and latches securely (preferably one that can be kept in place with a sturdy clip or padlock). Invisible fences are invisible, hence the name. They won’t protect your pet from other animals or malicious people, nor will they stop your pet from killing another animal that crosses into that area. Many Mals will take the “hit” to get out of these.
You intend to use aversive, negative and outdated training methods and devices on the dog. These devices can include choke chains, prong and shock/vibration collars. We are happy to help educate why these methods are considered adverse.
There are children under the age of 8 living in your home (there may be exceptions, depending on the dog, please read the available dog descriptions carefully).
You are unable or unwilling to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and proper care for a pet
You cannot provide a minimum total of 45 minutes of daily exercise for the dog.
You expect the dog to live outside full time.
You have a low tolerance for dog hair.
You or anyone living in your household have ever been charged with a sex crime, animal cruelty, or domestic battery.
You own an un-altered pet over the age of 2 that is not shown or proven in the conformation ring. You must intend to alter the pet shortly after it reaches the age of 2 or we reserve the right to void the adoption and bring the dog back into rescue.
You rent and cannot provide a letter from your landlord that you can have a pet over 60 lbs.
