Here's what the humans have to say about me:
***ADOPTION PENDING***
Meet Nanuk! This fuzzy 4 year old just arrived and is still being evaluated but so far we've heard nothing but great reports from his foster family. Nanuk was relinquished to us when his family realized they couldn't provide the life and care that he deserved. This happy, social butterfly has handled his new life extremely well. He quickly learned that people are fun and soaks up the attention. His favorite thing is to watch tv on foster Dad's lap....all fuzzy 65 lbs of him. It's hard to say no when you understand his past and how desperate for attention he is now. His crate skills are a work in progress. He doesn't appreciate being confined but we feel in time and with patient encouragement, he'll improve. He loves to be a part of everything that's going on and would appreciate a home where he was not left alone for more than 5 or 6 hours at a time. Nanuk's a strong boy who pulls on lead which is another skill being addressed in his foster home. He'll do best in a patient, dog savvy home who understands how to help him be a great canine citizen. Another dog of similar size who would be very willing to share the attention would be acceptable but is not necessary. He would do well in a home by himself, happily soaking up all the attention he can get. He's a "people's dog" and needs to be a part of his human's daily life. Due to his thick northern breed undercoat, regular professional grooms will be necessary.
Nanuk has a very loving, social temperament with a bright future in the right home. Nanuk is still being evaluated but will be ready for his forever home soon! Visit our FB page for regular updates, and visit our website (www.arcticspiritrescue.org) to learn about our adoption process.
We provide adoptions to families living within a 100 mile radius of the greater Philadelphia, PA region. We do not have a shelter, and all of our dogs are fostered in private homes by experienced foster families.
