CHAAMP is a proud rescue member of The Pet Professional Guild. We practice fear-free (no physical/verbal intimidation) and force-free dog handling and husbandry. This type of gentle, kind interaction gives Malamutes a "choice" to collaborate and retreat to their safe space as needed. It takes time and patience to change and learn new behavior for all of us. We are in this together. 

​

Adoption begins with completing an online application. Information is confidential and is used to help us find a match with your lifestyle. We will work with you. Let us know if you have any questions and please share your expectations.

 

An adoption requirement is training and we will help you find a dog professional from the Pet Professional Guild, Fear Free Certified; or graduates from The Academy for Dog Trainers, Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner (KPA CTP), Pat Miller Certified Trainers, and Victoria Stillwell Academy. Training helps build a bond with your Malamute and helps him/her gain confidence.

 

You can also volunteer to take the Malamutes on a walk. This is a great way to meet the pups and learn how to best interact and handle these precious fluffy strong pups.  WOO!

​

If you cannot adopt, fostering is a wonderful alternative. With your help, we can open up space for another Malamute to come to the rescue. Learn more by clicking on available Malamutes below.
