Are Alaskan Malamutes Hyper?
Yes and No. Of all the shortcomings to be found, the most dangerous to the pet owner is their tremendous desire to RUN! But the very first dash that a puppy makes across the road could be his last run, anywhere. A Malamute, for his own protection, should be kept confined or under control at all times. Alaskan Malamutes are very pack-oriented animals. You are a member of his/her pack and he/she will want to be included. It is also good to have plenty of toys and chews for your Malamute to keep them busy when you have other things to do. But, like with any breed, they need the proper exercise.
