September 2008: Lightning, Bruin, and Canuck were entered in the Novice Weight pull and we could not be more pleased with their effort! They each easily pulled over 700 pounds their first time in front of a weight pull cart, and then we stopped due to their young age.

At AspenMyst, dogs meet the following health standards before they are bred:
All of the puppies will receive veterinary examinations, vaccinations, a microchip, and are registered with the AKC.
We strive for:
genetic soundness
ALL
of our puppies, both show and companions, have the same full health guarantee
against hip dysplasia and all other inherited conditions that are detrimental to
the health of the dog. Our breeding stock have hip ratings of OFA Good or
Excellent. Our breeding stock are certified clear of elbow dysplasia
through OFA and are examined yearly for eye abnormalities with a licensed
ophthalmologist (CERF) and for thyroid function. We only breed to dogs
which have Alaskan Malamute Club of America certifications for Chondrodysplasia. We
do our best to ensure that we are breeding as genetically sound individuals as
possible. Our foundation lines were chosen not only for their sound
structure, but also for their reputation for genetic health and longevity.
We have high expectations for the genetic soundness of an AspenMyst dog!
good temperament
We are proud to say that AspenMyst dogs are known for their good temperaments. It is necessary in this modern day for Malamutes to be good citizens. Our puppies are raised in our home, and their mom stays with them until they are 2 months old. We feel that raising puppies in the presence of a good mother for this length of time is important for their social development. How the mother interacts with her puppies and with other people influences the puppies at this critical time of their life.
preserving working ability (structure and function) and breed type
Our
goal is to promote the Alaskan Malamute as it was originally intended...an Arctic
Sledge Dog, by breeding to fit the AKC/CKC standards of the breed, and by
promoting the breed in harness and in the show ring.
“…their function as a sledge dog for heavy freighting in the Arctic must be given consideration above all else” AKC standard
It is important to consider
both the characteristics that make the Malamute a sledge dog (structure and
movement) and those characteristics that allow it to survive and thrive in the
Arctic (breed type).

The future...
Australian/Int'l Ch. Aspenmyst Stars N Stripes x Aspenmyst Operation Abegweit
We have been waiting years for this breeding with Steger!
We have high expectations for this litter, as sled dogs and in the show ring.
