THE MYTH ABOUT SIZE AND WEIGHTS:
Any Alaskan Malamute female 90 lbs. or more and any Alaskan Malamute
male 100lbs. or more is considered a Giant (trim weight). The only
TRUE Giant Alaskan Malamute, however, is one that the breeder can
give VET SCALE weight proof right from their vet. There likely are
very few Alaskan Malamutes in the world truly over 150lbs. If a
breeder says that their Malamutes are 150-200 lbs., ask them for a
vet-signed statement of proof. There has to be VET SCALE proof and
the dog has to be trim and not overweight to be accurate. Even some
breeders that say they have vet scale weights on their website add
many pounds to the weights they list making the dogs look like they
are heavier and larger than they truly are. The proof will be in the true vet scale weights of the offspring.
ALL of we Giant Alaskan Malamute breeders in the U.S. have Alaskan
Malamutes all from the same lines as each other. All of our dogs' weights are true vet scale weights with NO added weight listed. All of our dogs are brought to our vet regularly to be officially weighed.
