What happens when an Alaskan Malamute is hungry?

A hungry Alaskan Malamute may show a series of physical and behavioral changes, such as restlessness, longer sleep, fatigue, slow movement, weight loss, and rummaging through trash.

If hunger lasts too long, the Alaskan may reduce food intake or even refuse to eat; extreme hunger can cause low blood sugar leading to lowered body temperature, pale mucous membranes, weakness, and shock. Therefore, owners should provide enough food and water to ensure their health.
