About Mallory
Mallory is an Alaskan Malamute, born in February 2019. She weighs about 80 pounds and came to Heartland in October 2019 with her brother Marmaduke from a breeder who was closing his business and where they did not receive much socialization. In foster care Mallory has learned quickly: she is solid on her potty training, seeks out her crate for meals and sleep time, and enjoys being touched and petted. She is still quite impulsive on her leash walks... but has shown improvement; she is quite skeptical of jumping into a car. Mallory is highly treat-motivated and nicely follows ‘sit’ and ‘crate’ commands.
Even with all this progress, she is not ready to free roam in a house and will require a contained area when inside, preferably more than just a crate. From there she can continue to learn about appropriate inside behaviors.
Mallory requires an adopter with breed experience and a secure physical set-up (minimum 5-foot fence, large yard, and a suitable indoor space), the determination to continue her training, and the stamina to manage and exercise this lovely and willing dog.
She is nicely partnered with her littermate Marmaduke and a home together will be strongly preferred. Cats and small dogs are not an option and it is not clear that Mallory will accept other dogs.
All dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested negative ( puppies age 7 months and older) and microchipped. An adult dog's adoption fee is $200. There is a $5 fee for credit/debit cards.
