How much grooming does a Malamute need?
A good brush out once a week will be sufficient for general care. Twice a year the coat blows which lasts about a week each time and at this time a daily brush would be required to ensure all dead coat is removed as quickly as possible. Malamutes keep themselves very clean and do not have a doggy odour, bathing is not generally essential, however, it helps around the blowing of the coat period to loosen undercoat and help the shedding process.
