...I have a mini mal, I swear :lol:

Maya weights 31kg

 

Okay so how much on average would you say a weekly food bill is for one fully grown malamute?

 

Dobermans are cracking dogs !

They are loyal, protective, bubbley, and great with there family. They have natural gaurd dog instincts, but however they are also clever dogs with not too big a prey drive, so they manage to work out whos a threat and who isnt. Rather than just being dog and people agressive to eveyone

Thats a little like asking how long is a peice of string it all depends on what you feed them lol, but I will say mals dont need to eat as much as people think they are very good at getting the most out of their food.

No, very true. In all honesty Barney my springer eats more than Maya my Mal. She will only eat 4 scoops of kibble pr day and no more. I pay £30+ for a bag of dog food that last me 1 1/2-2 months and it's a 15kg bag.

 

Hi,
I cant help with Dobs but have some experience with Mals.
We have 3, our eldest being 5. I would say you have to make one hell of a commitment when you decide to get a Mal, they are more of a lifestyle change lol Like our friends and family will say 'I can't remember a time before Mals now'.
They are a lot of hard work, but if you are willing to put the work in they are a joy to own, and one is never enough!! Puppy training and socialisation is a must. Mals can be dog aggressive, due to their dominant nature, but with good socialisation that doesn't have to be the case. Ours are ok with our 2 terrier crosses, and they are a tenth of the size of them. Ours boys especially are great with the small dogs, the girl can be a bit grumpy, she likes her own space. I would say they learn quite fast, if there is something in it for them They are very stubborn!
Another things is the hair, when they shed their undercoat (twice a year, but you will find hair around pretty much all of the time) you can get bag upon bag of fur out of them. The garden, they love to dig, very much so! Ours are past that stage now, but when growing up they dug, A LOT. We have 2 gardens, one for them and one for us! lol
Ours don't go off the lead, I know others who do let their Mals off but they are known to have poor recall, and I'm just not brave enough!

I'm sure there is plenty more things I have forgotten, but I'm at work at the mo. It may sound like I am putting you off, but really I am not. They are wonderful dogs, and I know I will always have one in my life, but you MUST be prepared to put in the work, it's so worth it if you do

Here are a few pics...
First, THE HAIR, this was a 10 minute brush, and he's barely moulting at the mo lol

I'd love a mal they are stunning!!

Ive got two mal crosses (from springerhusky!) one is very very much like a mal hes got so many mal traits its nuts havnt had him weighed recently but at 8months he was close to 32kg so i imagine hes around between 35-37kg
i love his curly tail as well

the other is smaller and more like a springer but hes got a lazy sleepy part of a mal lol!

 

A Malamute x Springer?

Yes, your best luck is to read through some of my threads, the locked ones are usually the ones concerning it. Best not into to much as it always results in a locked thread and i'd hate anyone to have a locked thread because of me.

p.s If you want to comment talk about im me directly rather than posting here, thank you
