Just like with children malamutes enjoy some alone time with their family. Once in a while make sure to spoil your dog just enough that he or she feels like an important part of the family. It doesn’t matter what you are doing just get your dog out. This trip with Coho and my wife up in the mountains was a ball, but just one example of how to show your dog that you care. A short trip to the dog park, a swim, a game of fetch, or whatever works. The key is to do something and make time even when you are busy. Our Alaskan Malamutes love going on big hikes up in the mountains, a dip in the river, chasing a ball, or just about anything as long as they are the center of attention. Always remember how much your 4 legged furry companions love spending time with you, and don’t ever miss a chance to take them on an adventure.
