Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rocky and Hunter found themselves dumped in rural Minnesota, where thankfully, a Good Sam stepped in and took them in. Tried for months to locate owners, and none could be found (dogs were not chipped) and so they came to IAMRA. Both Rocky and Hunter absolutely love humans and can’t get enough attention. Rocky is an absolute goof ball who will walk himself on lead and has the cutest overbite. He has settled a lot in group and is finding success navigating the yard with our other dogs. Hunter is a little more dog selective, but it learning to be comfortable around more dogs and has shifted from serious to a softer self. Hunter when he wants attention will do adorable nibbles almost grooming his human to get some attention! Hunter and Rocky have made a big change of environment and are still adjusting to the urban area. The trainers at Zen Dogs are working with them everyday to adjust to this change and are finding success with the use of food and some fun!
If you are interested in this dog, or any of our other dogs, please go to www.iamra.org and fill out an online application.

Adopting a Malamute is a serious commitment, requiring both financial stability and consistent living arrangements. IAMRA does not adopt to anyone under the age of 21. Although we rarely adopt to persons under 25, these applicants will be considered on a case-by-case basis
We require that you fill out our Adoption Application on our website, www.iamra.org, if you are interested in adopting. We are happy to answer any questions you may have, about our policies in general, or specific dogs available, once we have a completed form. Dogs are placed based upon personality matches with the prospective adoptive persons/families. Adoptions are handled on a first come, first served basis. All adoptions are based upon approval by the IAMRA Board of Directors. We reserve the right to refuse adoptors. IAMRA serves Illinois and portions of some bordering states.
Each Alaskan Malamute has a modest
adoption fee.
Our dogs are temperament tested. We can give you information about the dogs likes and dislikes, level of alpha behavior, and level of socialization and training AFTER receiving an application.
