Starting in 1996 (as Sleddog Rescue, now Tennessee Alaskan Malamute Rescue - TNAMR) we are here to help homeless Alaskan Malamutes. Malamutes are homeless for a variety of reasons, usually involving their owner's circumstances (loss of job or home, divorce, etc.). Responsible breeders always take their dogs back, but not everyone accepts this responsibility, or plans for it. Thus the need for rescues like TNAMR.
