About

Meet Kai

Kai originally was brought to us from the Valdez Animal Shelter after spending 175 days in the shelter! Kai is hoping the change in scenery will help him find his forever home. We would love for a malamute lover who understands his breed to snatch him up! Kai is very friendly and does great with meeting new people. His big size and playful demeanor may be too much for some small children. He can absolutely be stubborn at times and will resist coming inside if he just is not done with playtime. He can also be described as being sassy and will back talk from time to time! Kai is an active dog and will thrive best with regular exercise. His new home should be able to provide him with a positive outlet for his energy! Kai does have good manners in a home setting, as he did spend some time with a foster so we could learn a little more about him. Kai is potty trained and will sit at the door when he needs to go out. He walks well on a leash and knows the cues “sit” and “down”. Kai may do best as the only pet in the home. How he does with cats or other small animals has not been tested but we do anticipate that he would chase them, based on a mixture of his breed and energy! Kai has done well with some other dogs, but prefers submissive, tolerable females. This can be a pretty typical trait within malamutes, especially considering we do not know what kind of socializing he had as a puppy. Again, Kai may be most successful as an only pet. If you have another dog and are interested in meeting Kai, we will require a dog meet and greet prior to adopting. Kai deserves to find a home that will be a good fit for him. He is ready to experience the great outdoors with his new family and catch up on all the new, fun and exciting things he may have missed out on with being in a shelter for so long. If you feel that Kai would be a good fit for your home, we encourage you to come by and meet him!
