Newton - Alaskan Malamute Dog for Adoption in Birmingham, Alabama

Newton is a very sweet boy who melts for chin scratches. He is a bit of a picky eater, although we have recently found out he will take his medication very willingly if it's in a hotdog. He is kennel trained, and walks well on a leash. He is a very smiley guy, who has a silly quirk of sticking his head into the water bowl as it is being filled up. He has passed his initial dog test at animal control, however he has not been paired up yet with another dog in a playgroup as he is still healing from his neuter surgery.

The Alaskan Malamute is a powerful and dignified Arctic sled dog known for its strength, endurance, and friendly demeanor.
