Murphy

Murphy is a 98lb 3.5 year old Malamute with a cuddly disposition. He has a loyal personality and despite his tendency to make everything a conversation, he will respect and follow the commands of anyone "in his pack". Murphy has undergone 12 total months of obedience training which has formed a great foundation for human social interaction, peace in the home, and walks. This foundation is one that can be built upon over time. His car is his happy place and will love to join you everywhere you go. However, murphy struggles from a panic disorder caused by improper crate training at an early age. To properly address may take 10-15 hours a week over the course of many months. Until that objective is met, he cannot be left alone or forced in a crate as he will destroy the house or hurt himself. Only once he is comfortable in a crate within a home setting could he be a candidate for boarding. His improper crate training also resulted in a lack of canine socialization which means that he is 50/50 with other dogs. Ideal candidates for his adoption would be capable of providing the time and resources to ensure he is properly cared for while he tackles his remaining quirks. Murphy is located in Royal Oak, MI, if interested, please contact thadpetty@me.com. His re-homing fee is $150.
Cagney

You will be hooked the moment Cagney rolls over for a tummy rub. There’s nothing quite like a big furry dog hoping you will snuggle up for some love. You may not know it now, but a lovely, cuddly Malamute is just what you want after a long day at work, a crazy day with kids, a hectic drive in brutal traffic. Cagney will make your stress disappear and bring a smile to your face. She’s absolutely irresistible.
Cagney is a six-year-old, docile, gentle girl, eager for approval and willing to do whatever is asked of her. She’s had some obedience work, so she will sit, down, stay, wait, and come when called, but a little refresher course to help her recall what she knows would be a good way to help her adjust to a new life. She’s a little shy in new situations, but her response is never threatening; she’s just eager to please. With gentle training, she has the potential to be a great house dog. She just needs a chance to shine.
Cagney is being rehomed because her owner, whose health is deteriorating, can no longer care for her as well as Cagney deserves. The groomer loves her, and the vet is pleased with her condition and health, despite a detectable heart murmur. She’s currently doing well with no adverse issues. She’s chipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, and heartworm negative and will be spayed prior to rehoming. She’s crate trained and rides happily in the car. She’s housebroken. All she needs now is her forever home. Cagney shares a house with another male Malamute, but girl dogs are another issue. She should be in a home with no small children or small pets.
Doesn’t your home need a great big gentle throw rug?

Addie

“Just look at this face. Aren’t I the cutest thing you ever saw? And, believe me, I’m smart and fun too. I’m fast on my feet, agile, and powerful. I’m very social and happily greet new people. And I’m a love bug!
I’d like to tell you about this dream I have—I’m in a big ring, and there are jumps and tunnels and teeter-totters and high bars and upside-down Vs and something I’m told are weave poles (they look really hard but I bet I can learn them). I would love to try the sport called agility; I’d be really good at it. But there are lots of dog sports for a smart, active girl and I’m happy to tell you about them. In fact, I’ll gladly ask about your day, tell you about mine, and suggest new things we could learn. Do you want to learn with me? I like going to the groomer, but my short, tight coat doesn’t really require much care; I even let people trim my nails. Aren’t I a good girl? I’ve been to a beginning obedience class, so I know lots of really neat tricks like come, sit, stay, down, wait; I even walk nicely on a leash. But I may need a teeny-weeny refresher course (and if I burn a little energy first, I’ll be even better). I am housebroken but don’t forget that refresher course. I’m happy to go with anywhere; I ride in my crate in the car quietly, I’m a good girl at the vet, and I’ll crate in the house. But my favorite thing would be to cuddle with someone of my own. Are you that someone?”
Signed, Addie
Addie is a six-year-old Alaskan Malamute. She’s being rehomed because her owner’s health is failing rapidly, and Addie needs more exercise and personal attention than she’s getting. She’s chipped, up-to-date on her vaccinations and is heartworm negative. She is currently intact but will be spayed before rehoming. She should be fine with another large male but should not go to a home with small children and other small pets. Addie needs a forever home; Is yours that home?

Peter

“Hey! Look at me! Look at me! Aren’t I the handsomest boy you’ve ever seen? And I have more than looks; I have a brain! And, boy, do I want to use it. You know those fancy dog puzzles, the ones where you have to figure out how to get the treats inside? I wanna play! I’d be really, really good at it. Please, adopt me! I wanna play with puzzles!
I’m Peter, and I’m one hunk of love. I love adventure, people, food, treats, adventure, cuddles, running for joy, adventure,and lying at your feet after you’ve had a long, hard day. And did I mention adventure?
I’m almost seven, I’m housebroken and have had some basic obedience training – sit, down, stay, wait, come, walk on a leash – although I may need a teeny-weeny refresher course. I behave well in the car, at the vet, and at the groomer, and I’m fine in a crate or kennel although I am super eager to lounge around in a house and stare adoringly at my forever family.”
Signed, Peter
Peter is an Alaskan Malamute; he’s being rehomed because his owner’s health is deteriorating to the point it’s very hard to care for such a big dog. He is chipped, has been neutered, had all his vaccinations, and is heartworm negative. He has limited vision in one eye and so can be surprised by something coming up on his blind side; he’ll startle and then relax. He gets along with females but should not be in a home with another male dog or with small pets of any kind. He’s a big boy and enthusiastic, so older children and adults would be preferred. Like most malamutes, he’s not much of a guard dog although his presence is pretty awe-inspiring.
Let Peter into your heart and let the love begin.

Entai - Adoption Pending!!

Entei is looking for a forever home. He is 55lbs, neutered, up to date on vaccines ( vet gave rabies we gave the combo vaccine ), microchipped, heartworm negative. Will be due for updates in April. We bit off more than we could chew with 2 small children at the time and decided to get a husky and malamute puppy as well. He is a pure breed Siberian Husky that will turn 4 the beginning of November. He is house broken ( bathroom wise except for when he goes in our unfinished basement the previous owner had lots of animals and he for some reason thinks he needs to mark down stairs so he just does not go down there ). He does need some more training to be honest. They have never been left loose in the house at night so not sure what he would do. He is some what leash trained but we really don't go on walks like we should. He got along well with my parents female dog but has not be around any other dogs but the female malamute we have that is the dominant one. Does not do well with cats or small animals too high of prey drive. Is good with children though other than just super energetic might knock small children down on accident. Likes to talk a LOT. He is a good boy he just needs a home that can give him more time and attention than we he time for with two full time split shift jobs.
Rehoming fee $150
He comes with his crate, collars, leash, bowls, enough food to transition, blanket, next month worth of simparica trio

Rey

Meet Rey! She is a 7.5 year old malamute. She was surrendered to a CVT in Wisconsin because her previous owners wanted to euthanize her. She needed to have an exploratory surgery performed. She had the surgery done where a small kids toy was taken out. This is not her first offense, when left alone she likes to eat things she should not. She needs to be kenneled when left alone. We had intestinal biopsies done and it is more than likely she has IBD. She needs to eat a gastrointestinal diet and have a probiotic daily. Since surgery she has been doing great!
She is up to date on vaccines, is spayed. She weighs about 92 pounds. She was thin when I got her and has put on 5 pounds, could easily put on 5 more.
She is a super sweet fluff bucket! She LOVES to cuddle. She likes to sit outside and soak up the sun and fresh air. She loves to play with squeaky toys and show them who’s boss! She can more dominant with other dogs, but does great with my more submissive dog. She came from a household that had another malamute.
She eats great, but needs a slow feeder bowl otherwise she eats too fast. She is the messiest drinker I have ever seen, but it’s a cute quirk of hers! She walks great on a leash. Does well in a fenced area, I have four foot chain link fence.
She rides great in the car, loves to look out the window! Does great in her kennel! She seems interested in cats but has not come face to face with them yet, so not sure how she would do. She LOVES people, kids and adults! Rey is located in Cottage grove, WI. Rehoming Fee of $200.
If you are interested in adopting Rey, please contact Kayla at krenzkayla@gmail.com
