Meet Elias, a striking 3-year-old Alaskan Malamute tipping the scales at 93 pounds of pure charm and fluff.

 

Initially, Elias may take a few days to settle into a new environment, but once comfortable, he becomes relaxed and well-behaved.

 

He appears to be fully potty trained and gets along well with other dogs.

 

However, he exhibits some resource guarding with high-value toys and food, so monitoring interactions with children and other dogs is advisable.

 

On a positive note, Elias responds well to trading a toy for something else he likes, indicating his trainable nature and potential to work through this issue.

 

His interactions with cats have been less favorable, involving some chasing and obsession.

 

While slow introductions over time might help, a cat-free home is likely the best fit for him.

 

Overall, Elias is a total charmer who craves love and affection, making him a great addition to many homes.

 

Stop  Animal Services and see if Elias is a good fit for your family.  You can call to make an appointment at 360-352-2510.
