Alaskan Malamutes were born for the Winter Olympics. And if the sport includes solving puzzles along the way, Mals are totally in. These super-smart and super-active dogs do not like being bored. They’ll swipe left if you’re not entertaining enough. But good news! They love a crowd, so your social calendar should always be full. If you keep a super-tidy home, may we recommend the Poodle? The Alaskan Malamute sheds a ridiculous amount twice a year. Life with an Alaskan Malamute is full of activity and adventures, and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
