Alaskan Malamute

Dogs Friends

Background –Atlas joined us due to a change in circumstances at home.Character –Atlas is an affectionate, relaxed and confident boy who has found himself with us due to his aversion to farm animals.Type of home –Atlas is an active boy looking for a dedicated owner. Although he has experience living in a hectic household with small children and other pets, we feel he would benefit most from a calm, pet-free environment. He is ready to be the sole focus of his new family and settle into a life of one-on-one companionship.His experience of children and other dogs mean he will be ok with visiting children and pooches.Atlas must go to a home without cats, livestock or farm animals. He has a high prey drive and therefore won’t be going on rural farmyard walks anytime soon – let’s put it that way!Atlas will have his meet and greets at our Kennel facility between Cheddar and Wells. Potential adopters will need to meet him here.Our catchment area for rehoming is Somerset and the local surrounding areas (such as Bristol, Bath, Weston Super Mare and Wiltshire).

Dogs Friends

Background –Dakota and Takani have joined us after a sad change in circumstances meant their owner could no longer care for them.Character –These girls are a gorgeous pair that people have nothing but good things to say about. They gain comfort and confidence from being together and are the best of friends, playing happily together (even if they could do with a bit more spatial awareness when they do so!).Type of home –The girls are looking for a calm but active home – they love being outside. They haven’t previously lived with dogs but they are friendly with the dogs they meet, so they may be able to live in a home with other dogs. Whilst not tested with cats, they have never shared a home with felines, so we think they’d be best suited to a home without cats. When on lead, the girls can be very strong and excitable, so they will need a confident handler. Both girls have travelled well with us, although they do need some initial encouragement, and are used to being left for short periods. However, they do have typical husky vocals, so they may not be suited to noise-sensitive homes.The girls are residents at our Kennels between Cheddar and Wells and potential adopters will need to meet them here.Our catchment area for rehoming is Somerset and the local surrounding areas (such as Bristol, Bath, Weston Super Mare and Wiltshire).

Wolfwood

Fred is a 3 year old Malski x Labrador. Sadly his owner died and he doesn’t get on with the other family dogs. He is still quite nervous meeting new people but is getting more comfortable every day. He would be best housed as the only dog in the house. Fred is crate, halti and house trained. He is a high energy dog so needs an owner able to give him ample physical and mental stimulation. He will also need daily grooming.

Lola's Trust

Ghost is a cuddly and playful girl that thrives on multiple long walks a day, fun play sessions, and plenty of toys to keep her busy. Ghost gets the zoomies on the regular, so she’d be happiest in a home with lots of space and a large, secure garden.

Mutts in Distress

Jojo is a very affectionate boy, who has alot of love to give to people. It makes us so sad here at Mutts to think Jojo might spend his life at the kennels, though he is happy and comfortable. A kennel is not the same as having his own home, surrounded by a family who cherish him. We’re not expecting someone to take on all that comes with having an older dog and we are offering a permanent based foster (Mutts will cover the large vet costs, we just ask you to cover the annual vaccinations / food / wormer etc…) We just want to see him in a loving home environment, living out his retirement years. Jojo is a Malamute cross husky with a few other breeds (he is slim like a Husky but as big as a German Shepherd). Jojo can and will walk on a halti, he is also muzzle trained. Jojo isn’t keen on other dogs but has made doggy friends in the past (he likes neutral calm dogs, who just ignore him). Jojo could potentially live with older children who are understanding of dogs. Jojo adores affection and the company of people.

Greenleaf Animal Rescue

Kiko is a 4 year old female Alaskan Shepherd looking for her forever home. She is neutered and micro-chipped. She is fully house-trained. She will sometimes pull on the lead on walks. She barks at other dogs on the lead and is excited to greet them and can be overly playful with smaller dogs when off the lead. She has lived with and has been used to visiting children, but can jump up playfully. She enjoys naps and relaxing in the evening. Please enquire.

Doris Banham Dog Rescue

ROXY NEEDS SOMEONE TO LOVE - COULD THAT BE YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW?Roxy is a ‘big girl Malamute’ – she is good on the lead and likes to talk.Roxy was taken into our care due to some food guarding issues.Roxy requires a strictly adult only ‘Malamute breed savvy’ home (no children).‘Meet and greets’ with other dogs in the potential adopter’s household would need to take place to see if a bond is possible. Several visits to the kennels will be required, to build up a relationship of trust and confidence with Roxy.Roxy has not been cat tested.

Cheltenham Animal Shelter

Meet Seff, a gorgeous 10-year-old Malamute with a gentle soul and the loveliest balance of independence and affection. This handsome older boy is looking for a calm home where he can enjoy life at his own pace and be adored for the sweet companion he is.Seff is happiest in a peaceful environment and would suit a home with older teenagers aged 16+, as he’s never lived around children and really enjoys the quieter side of life. He’s a sensitive boy around other dogs, so he would prefer to be the only dog in the home where he can fully relax and feel secure. However, he has previously lived happily alongside cats and could potentially share his home with a calm feline friend again.One of Seff’s most endearing qualities is how wonderfully easy-going he can be. He enjoys spending time with his people but is equally content having his own space and a snooze nearby. In his previous home he was comfortable being left for several hours, making him a lovely companion for someone looking for a dog who isn’t overly demanding.Seff still enjoys getting out and about for his walks, especially if there are plenty of interesting smells to investigate along the way – sniffing adventures are one of his favourite things! He also travels well in the car, so he’d happily join you on gentle outings and countryside strolls. Seff can sometimes be a little stiff in his back legs, so he would really benefit from having access to a secure garden where he can potter about, stretch his legs, and enjoy the fresh air on slower days when he doesn’t fancy venturing too far. While he may be a distinguished older gentleman, he still has a playful side, particularly when squeaky toys are involved!Seff is a truly sweet natured dog with so much love still to give. He’s looking for a kind home that will appreciate his gentle spirit, respect his need for calm surroundings, and cherish him through his golden years. In return, you’ll gain a wonderful companion who will become a very special part of your life.

Bath Cats & Dogs Home

Teddy is a handsome Alaskan Malamute looking for a calm, experienced adult-only home where he can settle at his own pace. As a typical Malamute, Teddy can be independent and prefers to interact on his own terms, so he’ll need owners who understand and respect his body language.Teddy enjoys exploring, playing with toys, and relaxing once he's comfortable. On walks, he enjoys a slower pace with plenty of sniffing, but can be strong and vocal when excited and may react to other dogs, traits often seen in his breed and would benefit from quieter walking areas.Teddy is looking for a home to call his own and will thrive in a patient, understanding home that can give him the time and space he needs to feel secure and become a loyal companion.

Thor is a big-hearted boy with a loyal nature and a playful side that really shines once he's comfortable. He forms strong bonds with his people and thrives on companionship, structure, and clear, consistent boundaries.Having lived quite a sheltered life so far, Thor hasn’t had much exposure to the wider world. Because of this, he will need ongoing training and patient guidance but he’s more than ready for it. Thor is incredibly clever, eager to learn, and already picking up new skills quickly while in our care. He genuinely enjoys training and loves to please, making him a very rewarding companion to work with.Out on walks, Thor can be a little unsure around new people, but this is something we are actively working on, and he continues to make steady progress.Thor would be best suited to adopters with large breed experience who can provide the guidance, time, and understanding he needs to grow into the confident dog he has the potential to be. He will also need someone who is around most of the time initially, so he can gradually and positively build up to being left alone.Thor would be best suited as the only dog in the home. While he may be able to live with an older, calm, and well-balanced female dog, he is a big, boisterous boy who can be quite full-on. Given the training and guidance he still needs, we feel he would thrive best in a home where he can be the sole focus of his adopters’ time and attention.Thor could live with older teenage children who are confident around large, energetic dogs and can respect his space when needed.If you’re looking for a loyal, intelligent companion and are ready to invest in his journey, Thor could be the perfect match for you.2020 - 2026 Animal Concern Cumbria.

Mayhew

Wonderful Wallace is a playful, intelligent and active boy, looking for an equally active owner. He likes to be outdoors and is inquisitive of his surroundings but can become overwhelmed at times and bark at things he’s unsure of, including sometimes strangers, so he will need an experienced and understanding person that will provide him with support and guidance when needed. He wears a muzzle out and about, purely as a safety precaution. However, Wallace is very affectionate with people he knows, he loves to lean in for attention and builds very strong bonds. He really enjoys his training and thrives off having a purpose. This handsome chap would suit owners that will have the time and patience to continue with his training and socialisation as well as providing plenty of mental stimulation to keep him busy. He will make an incredibly fun, loving and rewarding best friend in the right home.Wallace is looking for an active, all adult home. To help with his training, it would be ideal if he could find a home in a rural/semi-rural area. He can live in a flat as long as there is direct access to a private garden. He could potentially live with another well-matched dog, subject to a successful meet at Mayhew. His new owner will be expected to continue his training and socialisation and will receive three free 1:1 sessions with our Mayhew Animal Behaviourist to help guide them. Wallace has been neutered, microchipped and vaccinated and is up to date with flea and worm treatment. He has also been health checked and behaviourally assessed. Lastly, every dog adopted from us will go home with 4 weeks free pet insurance.If you are interested in adopting this animal please read the information below, including the ‘Other notes’ section, to check your circumstances match the needs of this animal.
