| WELCOME to the internet home of Gryphon Alaskan Malamutes. I am privileged to share my life with these intelligent, beautiful and wonderfully engaging dogs, and I am glad to share with you a bit about them through this website. My dogs are my friends and companions, and we participate in a number of activities here in the Pacific Northwest: From conformation (shows) to obedience, agility to weight pull, sledding and carting, back-packing, and, well, just about anything that makes for a great outing and happy dogs!! |
| If you are wondering if this is the breed for you, please enjoy the various information sources and links on this site and elsewhere. Malamutes are wonderful companions for the right person or family, but there is no question they are a unique and challenging breed --- and commitment to any dog is a commitment for life. To ensure a happy match for both you and your dog, please take the time to research the breed and talk to people with experience in the various facets of Malamute ownership. |
| On this site you will find a little about our plans and activities at Gryphon Alaskan Malamutes, and educational information about the Alaskan Malamute in general. There is a table of the key pages of our site at the bottom of each page. |
| Malamutes are a tremendously versatile breed, and should exhibit the working drive and ability that guided the evolution of the breed for thousands of years in the harsh artic, as well as demonstrate a sound conformation that exemplifies the AKC Alaskan Malamute Standard. Therefore, we believe strongly in working the dogs as well as testing them in the show ring. Temperament and health are equally important considerations. |
| Here at Gryphon Alaskan Malamutes, we strive for dogs that represent the spirit of their ancestors. |

| If you are considering adding a Malamute to your family, we are happy to help you learn more about the breed and help you find the right puppy - whether from us or from another responsible, caring breeder. Remember, too, that getting a new puppy is not the only way to share your life with a malamute ... please also consider whether a rescue dog might be what you're looking for. There are many wonderful malamutes in local rescue programs that can fill that spot in your life and warm your heart. |
