My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Interested in adopting? See our adoption process.



ODEZA, often called DEZY is a lovable girl, who is looking for adventures.  She likes to play with her toys, especially if they squeak!  She knows several basic commands; sit, stay, down, and come (well come when she wants to).

DEZY is selective of the dogs she will be friends with, if they make her A list, then she will invite them to run and play.  She will need to be slowly introduced to other dogs so that she can determine if they meet her Diva requirements.

A large, secure fenced yard will be important for DEZY.  She is smart and will find a way to escape if she gets bored.  She loves to go on walks, hikes, or any fun trip you would like to include her on.

After a long day DEZY is ready to be inside and be lazy with you, chilling with your favorite book or TV show.

The ideal family for DEZY will have time to spend with her and keep her busy and give her all the love she deserves.

ODEZA is currently enjoying the amenities of our Malley Valley doggie resort.

Additional adoption info

We ask for a minimum adoption donation of $400 which is tax deductible as we are a federally approved 501(c)3 charity. Our adoption contracts can be viewed online at: http://www.wamal.com/docs/WAMALAdoptionAgreement.pdf

We have fencing and/or kennel requirements as malamutes can not be trusted to not roam.

We are looking for forever homes for our rescue dogs, and homechecks will be performed for all adopters, no exceptions. We love these dogs, and want what is best for them, we assume our adopters would want the same. Plus, the homecheck lets everyone meet each other, get to ask and answer questions, and make sure we match the right dog for the right family for that perfect match that will last a lifetime!

Go meet their pets

WAMAL is strictly internet based. Most of all our correspondence will be via email, typically during the odd hours of the night that our volunteers are able to donate time. The dogs in our rescue are taken into the homes and lives of our volunteers, there is no shelter to visit. There is no phone number to call. We are sorry for this, but with over 200 volunteers and over 100 dogs a year, there just is not an easy way to coordinate a statewide rescue other than through email.

More about this rescue

WAMAL was formed in 1998 to help with Malamute Rescue in the greater NorthWest area to cover rescue needs outside of the scope of Seattle Purebred Dog Rescue by Cindy Neely. Since that time we have rescued on average between 70 and 100 Malamutes a year and have rescued hundreds to date. While none of this would have originally happened without a small few, it's the numerous (but sometimes still too few) volunteers that make rescue happen. Our volunteers come from all walks of life and locations. Most are already overworked and too busy in their personal lives to start, but donating their time to rescue truly is what makes it possible to save the lives of this gentle and loving working breed... our Mals. The pride (and pain) of our lives.
