Often confused with Siberian Huskies, the Alaskan Malamutes are one of the oldest Arctic sled dogs. They are large in size, extremely well-built and they possess exceptional stamina and agility. These dogs have a wolf-like appearance and they are highly loving and caring towards their family members and loved ones.
In India, the availability and demand for this breed is not very high. These dogs have a substandard tolerance to heat and high-temperatures and thus, they are not considered to be highly suitable for Indian climatic conditions. Also, these pooches are a bit pricey to bring home and then maintain properly. But if that’s not an issue and if you are someone who can provide proper care and attention to this pooch especially during the summer months, then these dogs can make fairly decent pets as they tremendously loyal and affectionate towards their human parents and the ones they love and trust.

Alaskan Malamutes can be found in a lot of different colors – Chocolate & White, Gray & White, Sable & White, Black & White, Red & White and Seal & White and depending upon the rarity of the color, the overall price of these canine may vary.
Puppies are generally sold at a higher price as compared to older or fully grown pooches. Also, female canines, sometimes, cost a bit less when compared to the male dogs. And this is how age and gender of a dog influence its overall cost.
The cost of a purebred Alaskan Malamute is higher than the mixed-breed as there are lesser chances for a purebred puppy to develop hereditary health problems as compared to the one that is mixed-breed.
If a canine is not very easily available at a particular location, then its price can go a bit higher. Also, pooches that you get from faraway locations also generally cost a bit more as several extra charges (such as traveling et cetera) are also added on to the original price of the canine.
Canines that you get from a reputed, popular and well-known breeder may also cost a bit more as compared to getting them from any random unreliable breeder. But price of a pooch shouldn’t matter to you if you are getting it from a trustworthy place.
