Interested in adopting, fostering or volunteering?

Please notify the local state affiliate contact where you reside since adoption and rescue efforts are coordinated locally. Also, not all dogs are listed on a rescue’s website for public viewing and additional local dogs may be available to you.

Need to notify us about a malamute in a shelter or in need of a new home?

Please send your message only to the state in which the dog is located. Our affiliate contacts are active and you will receive a reply. Sending messages to more than one contact on the affiliate list causes duplication of effort and may delay assistance. Some helpful information to include when contacting an affiliate is:

  • Exact location of the animal, along with phone #, e-mail, contact name (ie, City/State/County and shelter name)
  • Gender
  • Approximate age
  • Digital photo(s)
  • Known behavior, temperament, history
