My story

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

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

ODIN is a gentle giant who loves to cuddle and be with his humans, always ready for a new adventure.  He enjoys walks, car rides, swimming and back home to take it easy with his kitty friends.

At doggie daycare he gets along with the other dogs, and loves a good game of chase. He has basic training and knows the commands; sit, laydown, come, shake, speak and heal.  Odin loves treats and will be easy to train further.

Unfortunately, ODIN has had a tough life.  This past year he lost an eye due to congential glaucoma. The other eye must have medicated drops daily and be checked by the vet every few months.  In 2022 he had to be relocated due to wildfires and found a new loving home in Aloha, Oregon.  But now due to unforseen circumstances, his owner must find ODIN a new home. 

ODIN's new furever home needs to have the time and finances to give him the care he deserves.

Additional adoption info

We ask for a minimum adoption donation of $500 which is tax deductible as we are a federally approved 501(c)3 charity.
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!

Adoption application

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.
