Shelby
is a young, gentle giant of a girl. A big sweetie, her
soft, plush coat matches her sweet heart and super
temperament with people. Sadly,
Shelby is aggressive towards other dogs and will kill
small animals. This is not a faulty temperament, it's the
nature of most malamutes and so she will have to
be the ONLY pet in the home. Also, no small children please,
she's just too big at over 30 inches tall and over 100lbs
heavy.
However,
She loves to play and as we said is terrific with people.
Her favorite game is to be chased around the house or yard.
Belly
rubs
are also a HUGE hit with her, that's her belly, not yours!
Like all
malamutes, Shelby sheds twice a year....alot. With her
plush, thick coat, that you won't be able to keep your fingers
out of, she also absolutely must be inside in the air
conditioning
in the summer. Shaving malamutes is a very bad idea, but
a very good idea is to brush them on a regular basis, which
she loves :-) She'll be more than happy to keep you company on
the couch during the summer!
A
large, fenced yard is an absolute requirement for this
big girl to stretch her legs. Shelby has a lovely voice
and knows how to use it so an apartment is not a good
home for her as they might not appreciate her singing
voice as much as you and she do ;-)
