Awww they are just adorable! We have our 3rd & 4th Malamute. The male is soon to be 9 & the female soon to be 8 yrs of age. It is an amazing breed and one not for the weak or lazy. LOL I am so thankful that we did choose this breed yrs ago to be family members with us. They have taught us a great deal and we love ours to the moon & back. I wish your family well with their breeding program.
