Alaskan Malamute
German Shepherd

Alaskan Shepherds take after their large, working dog ancestors as loyal and courageous companions. They are smart animals that require a lot of activity, mental stimulation, and coat maintenance to stay happy and healthy. Alaskan Shepherds require firm training from an early age, but can be great pets for families that are willing to put in the work. This breed is likely to have originated in the early 1900s when its parent breeds, the Alaskan Malamute and German Shepherd, were popular in the United States. Nonetheless, Alaskan Shepherds are unusual hybrids and not recognized by the American Kennel Club roster of purebred dogs.

Alaskan Shepherd Breed History

The name Alaskan Shepherd is a combination of the names of the dog’s parent breeds: the Alaskan Malamute and German Shepherd. The Alaskan Malamute is an ancient breed thought to have descended from wolf dogs that accompanied Paleolithic hunters across the Bering Strait over 4,000 years ago. Eventually, it acquired the name “Malamute” after the Mahlemuts Innuit tribe which inhabited the northwest coast of current day Alaska. Alaskan Malamutes were first bred for hunting large game and pulling sleds through icy terrain. In the 1800s, foreign explorers started to import Alaskan Malamutes to the United States as working dogs for Gold Rush expeditions in the Western part of the country. Eventually, American breeders began mating Alaskan Malamutes with smaller dogs for racing and entertainment purposes. This initiative destabilized the breed’s lineage for many years. In the 1920s, however, there was a successful effort to revive the purebred brand. Today, the Alaskan Malamute is the official state dog of Alaska and recognized by the AKC. As its name suggests, the Alaskan Malador’s other parent, the German Shepherd, hails from Germany where it was developed as a herding dog out of regional Shepherd varieties in the 1800s. It was initially called the German Sheepdog after its original purpose. The breed was so well-behaved and responsive that it eventually was used as a working dog in the German military. In fact, In World War I, German Shepherds helped supply soldiers with supplies and rations. In 1899, the Verein fur Deutsche Scharferhunde SV was established to guide the development of the breed, which lead to its popularity as a guard dog and pet in Europe. The American Kennel Club recognized the German Shepherd in 1908 and the breed grew steadily in popularity in North America. It remains a popular dog in the United States and Europe – especially Germany – to this day. The combination of these two parent breeds has resulted in a large, alert, and affectionate pet. The Alaskan Shepherd may have been breed since the early 1900s given the Alaskan Malamute and German Shepherd’s long history in the United States. Nevertheless, it is a scarce hybrid that is not recognized by the AKC.

Alaskan Shepherd Breed Appearance

The Alaskan Malamute and German Shepherd have many similar physical characteristics. As a result, the Alaskan Shepherd looks very much like both parent breeds; it is longer than it is tall and has erect and pointed ears, almond-shaped eyes, dark nose, and muscular build. It also has a fairly long and plumed tail and large arched paws with heavy padding. The Alaskan Shepherd can also come in a variety of colors that are common to its parent breeds and typically has black markings on the muzzle and forehead. The breed’s coat is very dense. It is thick, straight, and medium in length.

Alaskan Shepherd Breed Maintenance

This is not a hypoallergenic breed and thus, not suitable for pet parents with allergies. Alaskan Shepherds have medium length and extremely dense double coats that shed heavily, especially during seasonal changes. Brushing weekly with a pin or slicker, as well as using a deshedder can help reduce seasonal shedding and keep the coat neat and polished. During shedding seasons, however, owners may want to brush their pets daily. Alaskan Shepherds only need occasional baths, but owners should check their tails and undercoat regularly for debris. This breed should also have their nails clipped once or twice a month and teeth brushed every day.

Insuring your Alaskan Shepherd as soon as “pawssible” is essential for preventing high vet care costs. Start comparing insurance plans from leading insurers like Healthy Paws and Embrace and save over $270 a year.

Alaskan Shepherd Temperament

Alaskan Shepherds are known to be loyal and courageous, but also independent and aloof at times. They require firm and consistent training; otherwise, this strong-willed breed will walk all over its owners. Alaskan Shepherds can also be aggressive towards strange dogs and people; as such, early socialization is very important for raising a well-adjusted pup. Beyond this, Alaskan Shepherds are very intelligent and can be coached to respond to many commands and perform relatively complicated tasks. Keep in mind that because they are so intelligent, restless or bored Alaskan Shepherds may also become anxious and destructive. As such, this breed is happiest when it receives a healthy balance of mental stimulation and exercise. Additionally, Alaskan Shepherds tend to get attached to one person – the “pack leader” – in the family and are very affectionate towards their owners. They also respond acutely to positive affirmation and can be great dogs for the right type of family.

Alaskan Shepherd Activity Requirements

Alaskan Shepherds come from two hearty working animals, so it’s no surprise that this breed is both high energy and high endurance. They love being outdoors and will eagerly engage in strenuous hikes, runs, and romps outside in large, open spaces. Alaskan Shepherds should have at least 60 minutes of activity a day. This breed also benefits from mental stimulation by way of learning tricks, commands, and playing games with their owners. Since Alaskan Shepherds have thick double coats, they prefer cooler climates. This breed also prefers to live in rural or suburban environments where it has a yard and/or ample outdoor space to run around in.

Our Gus is a big lad at over 28kg already. He's stubborn and picks things up quickly but does need reminding of his training to keep him consistent. He's very friendly to both dogs and people to the detriment of his training quite often, just to eager to play. Gus has a short coat and it's far easier to keep then I was expecting, even with his liking for diving in to puddles he rarely needs washed the dirt just comes off with a quick brush. Definitely a people dog loves nothing better then to curl up next to us for a nap, just watch the paws :)

I have had my boy for about 4 years and he is great. He is trained as a police k9 and is excellent for the job. He has a off switch, he sits in the car and sleeps for hours until it's work time. The biggest down side is his fur and skin. He gets really dry skin when the weather changes and requires alot of grooming. If you are looking to get this bread they are great for active people. Also he doesn't really show pain (he broke 2 tows on a call and I didn't know for a couple of hours, he also snapped his tooth on a bite and I didn't know till the guy was at the hospital and they pulled wolfie's tooth out of his arm. Be aware that they are almost too resilient so check them regularly) If the dog is occupied then they are great!!!

Even though she is very stubborn and can be aloof at times, I absolutely adore this dog. She has made me reconnect with the outdoors and we have great long walks together. She is super friendly and affectionate and likes to meet every person and dog she comes across. These dogs are very smart and this can be challenging at time because no matter how much I barracade my fence Mika still finds a way to jump over it to get into my neighbours garden to play with their dog. These types of dogs are great for people who are active and have time for them, they require a lot of mental stimulation and excercise. They do not do well sitting in a house cooped up all day ! So make sure this is the right dog for you and be prepared for a lot of training, you have to be really consistent with these types of dog otherwise they will walk all over you Other then that they are truly remarkable dogs.

I got my boy when he was 9 weeks, he's already very obedient and I knows some tricks but I mainly train obedience. He's a dominant dog, I have a 6 year old German Shepard mixed with a Timber Wolf and he tends to dominate her as well as the cats (I have 2 cats and 1 kitten). The cats used to be mean with my other dog because she has such a good nature but with Akuma, he has no issue showing them who's boss! He's an absolute pleasure. I would advise to look for their temperament and you do have to be very hands on from an early age because they are quite a dominant breed but once you have the obedience down they will be a pleasure to have.

My baby. The girl that HONESTLY changed my life for the better. I’ve only had her for a year and a half, she was surrendered to shelter at 6 yrs old due to bad allergies.. (but totally fine if u buy hypo food lol) I have never met a more loyal, gentle giant in my whole life. Never barks, never bites, never growls. She loves me with her whole heart and I love her with mine. Unfortunately the past week has been a week of sickness and emerg vet trips. Her health is going and happening very fast. Not to sure 100% what’s going on yet but breathing troubles and (Extreme all of a sudden) lack of movement in back legs. She better get through this because this is the dog, the dog that will teach you pure unconditional love. This is the dog that will change your life.

We've had Rocky a little over a week, when we first brought him home he was a nervous puppy, he never left our sides. he was even scared of the dark! But it didn't take him long to get used to his new home... He's very smart, friendly and loving.He's already learned how to play fetch! (when he feels like it) He lives with a 9 month old baby boy and two girls, one 7 and the others 10. He's great wth all the kids. He's learning very fast that he needs to be easy with the baby and his 7 yo sister (who's afraid of him). They're all getting used to each other. He Also lives with 2 other dogs and a cat. He's friendly with all our animals even though the cat isn't so friendly with him. Lol. He still tries to play with him regardless. He's also stubborn hard headed and aloof at times. He does things he knows he's not supposed to do then he'll run from us and act like he doesn't even hear us calling for him! Rocky has so much personality and he's so much fun. Our whole household loves him so much... He's gorgeous and soft and a great cuddler!

When I first got her at the pound they said she was a chow shepherd but when I looked up the mix she looked nothing like a chow shepherd the only thing was the thick fur. So recently I looked up this cross breed and suddenly everything made sense. When she was around 4 months and I took her for rides on my skateboard she would pull me along with her like any other natural born sled dog...She wasn't distant, very loving dog. Chow shepherds are distant. Also when I looked up the breed spotted tongue more similar traits to Alaskan shepherd than anything else. The sled dog ability the malamute and german mixed behavior. Everything made sense...

My puppy alpha is an absolute blast! He learned sit, shake and down all in his first week with me. Though he tends to just sit there and stare😂 he loves runs, and tries his best to keep up with me with his tiny little puppy legs. He's great with my grandma's 2 older dogs and stands his ground against my brother's pit bull. He'll constantly walk around the house and peep his head in others rooms to make sure they're doing fine and say whatsup to their dogs. These dogs are extremely intelligent and will keep you on your toes, but that's why I love him

My 9 month old puppy is an adorable ball of joy, hes about 67 lbs so far, and he's pretty large compared to what this website says. He does still bite a bit, but only if he's in a bad mood, which is rare. He enjoys going for long walks, and is great with other dogs, however might be a bit too rough with littler dogs. He loves people SO MUCH, and is GREAT with children. Moka is pretty stubborn, and can be a little aggressive if he doesn't get his way, we have to train him very strictly otherwise he will destroy everything, he is SO STRONG and will hurt your hands when playing tug. Overall, we all love him and his behavior is improving day by day.

He is my 1st furchild 😊 His name is Whiskey and is now 3months and 1week. Friends and family have warned me about getting a dog, said its not easy and doesn't come cheap, i now understand why. Its like having a baby from what iv seen and heard. Started with the crying during the night and morning, play with him till he falls asleep. I have to watch him because he eats everything and had to puppy-proof the house. He's bed is in my room or should I say my bed is in his room,LOL. Took him to the VET for deworming and his vaccinations. Before the age of 3months we noticed a rash on his tummy, took him to VET he has Juvenile Pyoderma week later, diarrhea back to the VET we go, he probably ate something outside so I keep him indoors but then he started ripping my sofa and chewing the cupboard, cables, mats and poo'd everywhere even though he knows the spot to poo at. I work from home and have to work and keep him occupied at the same time. He would either moan or rip things up if I didn't take note of him. He follows me EVERYWHERE in the house and is extremely clingy. He now attends obedience classes. I've done extensive research and watched YouTube clips on how to raise a pup it helps me to be a better mom and makes the day a bit easier. He is now on a medical-aid/health plan insurance policy. It really is hardwork raising a pup, you need to have patience. I learn something everyday and he grows by the day.

Cannot be let off the lead as recall is an issue outside the home. Has a reasonably high prey drive and has killed other animals in the past, but loves all other dogs regardless of their size. His best friend is a 12 year old beagle! Generally ignores commands from anyone other than myself. Has sensitive digestive system, which the vet says is common in German shepherd breeds. Beautiful dog that always gets complements, but will bark and guard the home and owner towards threats.
