Larz is around a 6 years old, male Siberian Husky and came into the shelter as a stray wearing a make shift harness that our medical team had to cut off because it was so tightly wrapped around him. During his routine check-up and upon his intake, medical staff realized he has an old injury to his left eye, which is non-functional, but this doesn`t stop this guy from getting around! He came in shedding his coat, and slightly matted but our staff quickly brushed him out and as he`s still shedding his winter coat, they got a lot of that matting out and he is feeling much better. Larz did growl during his food test, and tends to guard his toys, so he would do best with a savvy owner who has experience with guarding. He did well with his play test with a low-key, polite, female canine friend, but can try to mount sometimes. Due to his guarding he would do best in a solo dog only home, with kids ages 16+.
