Alaskan Malamutes do like cold weather, and revel in snow, but you don't have to live in a winter wonderland to own one.

If your home has no cool spaces, consider another dog.
A purebred dog, most often documented with a pedigree, has parentage from two other purebred dogs of the same breed. So any purebred San Jose Alaskan Malamute puppies for sale you see on the site will have come from two other purebred Alaskan Malamutes. A mixed-breed dog has two or more different breeds in their parentage and often lack the distinct, predictable features and characteristics you can count on with purebred dogs.

Shelters are a fine option for many. There are some good ones, and some not-so-good ones out there. It all depends on what you are looking for. If you want a puppy that's a purebred, with documentation that details its health history, then a shelter is probably not the way to go. On the other hand, our network of vetted businesses and the best Alaskan Malamute breeders San Jose has to offer gives you peace of mind with all the information you could want about your four-legged friend.
At first glance, you might say that the Alaskan Malamute San Jose is tempting you with is part wolf. It's a common misconception but Malamutes don't share wolf DNA.

Not many folks would use the word "easy." You can train them, so rest assured that any of the Alaskan Malamutes for sale San Jose, or anywhere else, has will be obedient, eventually. As pack animals, Malamutes see the world as a lead-or-follow place. You will need to get them into follow mode, and that works best with early training. Some experts say you can start training a Malamute as early as three months old.
