This girl is a girls girl  (check out that perfect  make up  and beauty queen pose!) who is used to family life and will do well in the right new home. Maya is a young ( approx. 2 1/2 year old), adorable, and adoring Mal that would, first and foremost, love to sit in your lap - only if allowed, of course!

But if you are not up for some snuggles she will happily go for a ride, or a walk with you - she is very good at both. She is lead-trained and, like most law-abiding Mals should always be on a lead when in public. She is papered (not the newspaper kind) but has never been registered. Maya is also house-trained and crate-trained and has lots of wonderful loving qualities, not the least of which is loyalty.

She is an owner-surrender because her current environment doesn't allow her the singular attention she needs and wants - well, really like many female malamutes, she is just plain not willing to share her kingdom with another canine female. Male canine - well, probably ok. Human female - most definitely!

In fact Maya likes some men, after getting to know them (don't we all) , but she is been raised with her mom and will initially gravitate there. So Dads, you may need to do a little courting. But she is a cheap date - couple hotdogs and you will get the belly-rub-nod too.

Like most mals, Maya is not a good candidate for dog parks or puppy playskool. Good news is she doesn't need to party; she is happy being part of her human family and would do best in a home with no small children under the age of 10.

If you are looking for a fabulous female friend, full of furry fidelity who you can love, and who will return all that love right back to you, this fur-girl is for you.

Maya is located in Issaquah, WA.
