I live in the beautiful state of Colorado near DIA.  I share my life with my soul mate, Kurt..  Our life started together in the summer of 1989.  We have two wonderful boys, Kurtis (18) and Cody (15).  I have two more - Ryan (24) and Katie (21). 
 
We have an unusual story of marriage and divorce. Though we divorced, both remarried to someone else, eventually we divorced again and now we are back together. We stayed good friends after our divorce.  We found ourselves single again at the same time. Our 19 year history  finally made us realize that we really do belong together - soul mates.
 
Today, Kurt and I live together with our three boys and Taylor, our black lab and our three malamutes.  We enjoy meeting others with malamutes. We also enjoy riding on his Harley Davidson, fundraisers and going to the mountians as much as possible. And... of course, we are Bronco fans.

Alaskan Malamutes make wonderful pets.  Like with any dog, they are a long term responsibility and if you choose to purchase a new puppy, please commit to it. 
 
All puppies are irresistable. Until the long lonely cry starts at 3am and they need to be house broken. That can take a long time and a lot of patients. About the time you think your new puppy is doing good, they will find the newest shoe in the house and insist on killing it. This stage will also test your patients.  The first time you attempt the leash, you'd think they are going to be strangled to death. 
 
Ok, so you make it past all of that and then comes the other stage. You spoiled that cute irresistable puppy and now he's about 50 pounds and thinks "HE" is boss and your job is to keep the food bowl full and pamper him.  He doesn't take no for an answer. He starts to challenge you even more for that desired title called "BOSS".  This is where you really need to be tough because before you know it,  that 50 pound fur ball is going to be twice that size.  
 
I think this is when a lot of people give up and that cute irresistable puppy ends up at the animal shelter.  If you chose to buy a puppy, please commit to getting through this stage. The rewards are worth it. 
 
Once that puppy grows and matures past the tough times, they become wonderful loving companions.  If you earn the love of your dog, it is like no other. They truely know the meaning of unconditional love.
 
So please think first before purchasing a new puppy.  
 
We will always take back any of our dogs at any age for any reason their owner is no longer able to keep or care for them.

The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.
