When talking about winter dogs, a common breed that comes to mind is the Alaskan Malamute. The Alaskan Malamute are very strong dogs which is why they are also one of the oldest Arctic sled dog breeds. They were named after the native Inuit tribe called the Malhemuits, who had settled in the northwestern part of Alaska. Malamutes are believed to be descendants of domesticated wolf-dogs, and they may well be the first breed of dogs to be associated with humans as their companions. In 2010, a successful campaign started by a group of school-aged children led to the Alaskan Malamute being named the official state dog of Alaska.
While they aren’t necessarily the fastest breed, Alaskan Malamutes are commonly used as sled dog racing dogs thanks to their unique ability to carry large loads over a long distance. They are very athletic dogs, excelling at endurance and love regular exercise — even as family pets, they enjoy jogging, swimming, and sledding with their owners.
The Alaskan Malamute has a thick, coarse coat and a plumed tail which gives them good protection from cold temperatures. And during the Gold Rush in the late 1800s, prospectors turned to gold-prized Malamutes for their strength, ability to pull sleds, and temperament to withstand the extreme cold.
With its fluffy coat and distinct markings, the Alaskan Malamute makes for a very photogenic pet! GiftWorksPlus carries an exclusive Malamute engraved picture frame, perfect for you or someone you know who has an Alaskan Malamute. During the winter would be an especially good time to capture a moment of your Malamute enjoying the cold, snowy weather. Then you can frame your photo in the picture frame specific for its breed, or choose from a variety of other pet picture frames that GiftWorksPlus carries.
