Siberian Husky and Alaskan Malamute Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Maluma, a four month old Husky/Malamute weighing 43 pounds.

Maluma is a stunning boy with mesmerizing mismatched eyes and a personality just as bold as his looks! He came to us with his sister after their previous home had too many animals, and now he’s ready to find a forever family of his own.

This handsome pup is going to be a big boy, and he already has the personality to match—he’s talkative, a little dramatic, and definitely not shy about letting you know how he feels! Maluma can be a bit mouthy and will need guidance as he grows, but he’s also incredibly fun, engaging, and full of life.

With his likely Husky/Malamute mix, Maluma will need a home committed to training, structure, and plenty of socialization. These breeds are known for being intelligent, energetic, and sometimes a little stubborn, so consistency and patience are key. They thrive with both mental and physical activity, often needing daily exercise and enrichment to stay happy and well-behaved . Early training and socialization will help him grow into a confident, well-mannered adult.

Maluma is looking for an active home that understands his needs and is ready to embrace his big personality. If you’re ready for a smart, silly, and striking companion, Maluma might just be your perfect match.

This pet is available for adoption on 4.10.26 at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.
