Hi Friends! My name is Rocket! I'll get straight to the point - I'm handsome, smart, and I'm here sending out a signal that I'm ready to find my furever home! I am an almost 6.5-year-old, male, Alaskan Malamute, please don't confuse me for a husky - while we have a lot of similar qualities - I'm convinced that being a Malamute is where it's at! I weigh in right at about 90lbs, and I've been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and I'm up to date on my heartworm testing. I am looking for a furever home that understands large breeds like me, and is aware of my grooming needs - I'm a high maintenance dude and I'll need lots of spa days every year! I should also mention that kids, cats, and other dogs aren't really my style. I'm an independent man that's looking for humans to call my own, and hoping there is a home out there that will let me embrace my independence and share a life with you. I'm not the type of dog that's constantly seeking out your affection. While I enjoy long walks, lounging in the backyard, and treats, I just want to be a companion. I'm a strong & silent type of guy. I'm very smart, and I will work for food. I'm potty trained! A low activity household where I can lounge around and prepare to enjoy my golden years would be a dream come true for me. Like my name suggests, I'm a rocket shooting for the moon, but willing to land amongst the stars. I am available to meet Tuesday - Saturday from 10am-6pm. If you have questions about how much I shed, or what my boundaries are - please reach out to my friends at AVAS. Email them at AVASCares2@gmail.com or by phone at 989-348-4117. I hope I get to meet you soon!
