My story

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

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

COURTESY LISTING

Meet Max! This handsome feller is one of our newest furry friends here at the shelter!
He was brought to us as a stray and was unfortunately never reclaimed by an owner. Max is a
Malamute/Husky mix around 3 years old. Max is super sweet and lovable to people but we
aren't sure how he is with other dogs or cats just yet. He is quite the character, LOVES to talk and has quite the personality!

Max would make an excellent hiking or running partner. He can be an escape artist, so he would need a home with a fully fenced yard or maybe even a big enough dog kennel for him to stay in when no one is home to supervise him!

If you are interested in meeting Max, contact the Humane Society of the Ochocos today at shelterstaff@thehso.org

IMPORTANT - Please Note: 

Max is being listed as a courtesy. WAMAL has not evaluated this dog in person and any information we have listed here is information provided by the current rescue. WAMAL cannot guarantee this information or take responsibility for any inaccurate information posted in this listing.

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.
