Grooming Needs Of Alaskan Malamutes


The Alaskan Malamute has a thick and waterproof hair coat. This hair coat is suited for living in the Arctic. But as a domesticated pet, the hair coat of Alaskan Malamute needs constant grooming. The undercoat is up to two inches in length. It is oily and wooly to keep the dog safe from cold.


If you care for an Alaskan Malamute at home, get ready to use the vacuum cleaner to pick up falling hair. Remember to brush the hair at least three times a week. Doing so removes dirt and distributes the body oil throughout the body.


Malamutes shed a lot of hair twice a year. Fortunately, the hair coat is odor-free. So you don’t have to worry about this when you pick up the hair.


It is pretty easy to maintain an Alaskan Malamute. You do need to deal with the regular grooming of the hair coat. Aside from that, you only need to bathe the dog two times a year. And you don’t need to get a haircut for your dog.


Any skin and/or hair coat issue exhibited by your pet should warrant an appointment with your vet clinic New Orleans, LA. Learn more here.
