In Summary:
The quality of dog in the UK that I had the pleasure to judge was very good. I found a few dogs without scissors bites, some with round eyes, light eyes, tighter tails, loose fronts, close rears, and some out of condition. However, I see that in the United States so I believe that the breeders and owners are doing a fantastic job improving the Alaskan Malamute breed. I also do not have issues with color as well as markings and choose my dogs with the understanding and assessment that they can do their job as a sled dog.
Again Thank You for allowing me the honor of judging my favorite breed……The Alaskan Malamute.

Baby Puppy Dog ( 1,0)
1st CHAYO HERE COMES TROUBLE. Initial impression – Young male with good bone, temperament lovely, nice front for age, Bite still coming into a permanent scissors position, coat in transition but very promising  double coat of good texture, dark almond eye. I would like to see a stronger rear moving away but this puppy has time to build muscle.

Minor Puppy Dog
1st LUELDAR INTO THE INFERNO RAF. Initial impression – Overall a very promising dog. Head propped for age, topline good, rear movement clean and powerful, angulation front & rear well positioned, side gait clean and purposeful. Best Puppy
2nd CEDARCREEK THE ONLY WAY IS UP. Initial Impression – good quality, head of good substance, front assemble good, eyes almond shape and well placed, topline strong, coat of good texture and double coated, front assembly good. Would like to see a stronger rear going away but the dog is young.

Puppy Dog 3 (1)
1st CHAYO TOP GUN  Initial Impression – overall good representative of the breed at this age, head of good proportions, eye set well, ear leather and position good, fore chest good for age, rear angulation good, gait smooth and strong and purposeful, very promising.
2nd CHAYO UNLOCK THE POWER  Initial Impression – good quality, head promising, eyes almond shaped, ear letter strong, front angulation good but a bit loose, rear assembly is not as strong in movement creating a bit of a choppy gait, tail set a bit high and tight. Again this still is a puppy and puppies grow in and out of awkward stages.

Junior Dog (1,0)
1st BRECONFROST HE’S MAGICAL Initial Impression – Overall impression a bit awkward now, head in good proportion to body, ear leather good, almond eye, Front and rear assembly a bit straight and that does affect the overall gait, tail set a bit high and tight but still a junior and with time and maturity that could change.

Yearling Dog (4,1)
1st SNOWOLF BLACKPOWDER CHARGE Initial Impression – Overall a good example of the breed, front & rear angles good, teeth scissors bite, gait clean and smooth striding, coat good quality and tail well placed, great potential and competitive as a mature dog. Received Reserve Challenge Certificate Dog
2nd SAMJOE SHADOWHUNTER JW #53- Initial impression Good representative of the breed, front and rear a bit close, toppling good, tail set a bit tight, side gait a bit stilted due to front & rear assembly but due to age and growth spirts this could change with time and maturity.

1st ICYCOOL HUDSON BAY Initial Impression – overall a good quality dog, Head of good proportion, topline good, Front & rear good angulation, gait powerful and smooth. Great potential going forward to maturity.
2nd WHITEWALKER’S WINTER SNOWOLF Overall good type, front & rear angulation a bit straighter creating less reach & drive on side gait, tail set a bit tight.
3rd JAMES BOND ILLA KUVIANARTOK AT NUNATAQ  Overall a good impression, head good proportions, almond eye, toppling strong, front & rear angles a bit off causing the dog to move its rear to the side a bit. I would like to see a bit more length of leg on this dog to allow him to move out smoother and easier on the side gait.
