Welcome to Hino's own page!

Hino is second malamute to our family, who came to gladden our life 7.5.07. We had thought having another malamute for a some time, and after we discussed with Yepa's breeders, we decided that we could take another malamute. Even though Yepa's and Hino's age difference is little, we still have our "oldies", Veera and Pontus to balance our pack.

Hino is bred by Kennel Neatut, his formal name is Neatut Kiluagnaq, which means south-easterly wind. We live in South-Easternly Finland, so that fits him well. Calling name Hino comes from american indians and means by iroquese language Guard of Heaven or Son of Thunder. Hino's father's calling name is Thunder and that's also why Hino fit's so well to him.

Hino began to feel like at home very fast. His first night went without any crying. Pontus and Yepa accepted Hino right away, but with Veera we needed more time.

At first sight Hino seemed to have very lovely character; calm, get on well at lap, but he also had speed when needed to. Hino hasn't any aggressions of his food and sometimes between eating he even forgot his food. He was also very brave little puppy boy.

Hino has shown us to be really wonderful character; Unbelievable calm, very patient and modestly caring malamute. Almost everybody who has met Hino, has admired his character. Hino adjust very easily to everything new and we would be really surprised, if he some day would lose his patience. Hino loves to get some tenderness, but he don't demand it, he only comes little bit closer and let people notice him. Despite of his calmness, he is very eager and willing to pull and train. Hino is already so big, that he won't fit in lap anymore, but he might still come to get some cuddling.

At the age of one year, Hino's eyes were examined and there found Cataract, HC. Hino has also little bit too long coat, which impacts mostly to coat's getting wet and harnesses are harder to take off. Hino also gets warm easier and his cooling down isn't that fast than normal coat malamute. Hino's coat is fortunately quite harsh, so at least now we haven't notice, that snow would stuck to his coat any more than a normal malamute coat.

We are very interested of seeing, how Hino will be developing to big and strong sled dog through all years! Thanks for Anne and Jokke for your trust for us as puppy buyer!
