How We Raise Puppies

The bond between a dog and human begins at birth.
Puppies are born in a specific area of our home that is secluded and designed just for the births.

The socialization and the temperment of our puppies is extremely important to us.
We strongly believe that our puppies should be born and raised inside our home
where they can begin to learn what it is like to live in a human pack. I believe that being raised inside the home makes for an emotionally well rounded adult dog.

At 2 to 3 weeks of age puppies are moved to our kitchen so that socialization
in a more stimulating environment can continue.At 6 to 7 weeks of age, we begin letting them
go outside in our backyard for a few hours each day. We strive to do everything possible to make the transistion from
our house to yours as easy as possible for your new puppy, by exposing him\her to many different things inside
and outside of our home. Because each puppy is an individual and ready to leave our care at different times our malamute puppies may not leave untill between 9 & 12 weeks of age. Our puppies are continually with us, and exposed to typical house noises.
We feel this creates an ideal environment for the puppies.

Emotionally the Alaskan Malamute needs to be part of a pack and will be extremely
unhappy if he is not included as such.He must also be confident in his place
in his pack. An Alaskan Malamute also needs daily companionship, training and exercise
and if not given this can and probably will become quite destructive, loud, and extremely disobedient.
