Winter 2005 Litter

Born in January of 2005 - this litter was my second go of breeding. I allowed Ophelia and Timber to breed again, to try to get Ophelia on a better rotation of heat cycles. Living in Arizona, I have to ship my puppies in the Fall or Spring - as summer is just too hot for dogs to ship on air freight. Additionally, I only want to have each of my females breed once per year - not every time they go into heat. SO, knowing that Ophelia was young, I chose to back her up two cycles in a row to try to get her on schedule.

This litter was smaller than the first - consisting of only three pups: two females and a male. Thunder was the male ( it is amazing to me how much like Tundra - from the 04 litter - he looks! Thunder was solid black / white. The two females were Malakai ( seal / white ) and Polaris ( black / white ). I am still awaiting update pictures from my buyers.

Thunder has really grown up into a beautiful speciman of a male. He looks A LOT like his grandfather - LAMBRO ELLAS.

As you can see - Malamutes CAN INDEED swim !!

STRATFORD'S POLARIS Owned by Karla Baskin of Arizona

Polaris' First Experience on the Weight Pull cart - SHE DID GREAT ! Topping out at just about 600 lbs.

Polaris is yet another example of a STRATFORD PUP with a WONDERFUL temperment. She was friendly with the children, friendly with the other dogs, and a pleasurable, happy dog!! AND LOOK AT THAT MASK !!!!!!!!!! Very Distinctive !!!!
