He and his brother Finn (also available) found themselves here at FDHS one rainy evening after hours. They had been dumped on our doorstep in a crowded kennel covered in their own feces with no shelter from the pouring rain. Thankfully, we had a few staff members staying late and they discovered these poor guys before they left for the night. We quickly learned where these two had come from and despite our kennels being over-crowded and not knowing entirely what we were going to do with them, we were happy that they were here and not where they were.
Sawyer is the more timid of the two brothers and sometimes takes a little longer to warm up to new people and situations. We were told he's done well with other animals and children in his previous home and that he was used to being crated. He's done very well here with the staff and is tolerant of the other shelter dogs. We think with slow introductions that he'd blend in well with most households.
He does keep a clean kennel through the day and knows a few of his basic commands. He is very treat and praise motivated so we believe any additional training should be a breeze. Due to his history, Sawyer is a runner and would need to go to a home with a fenced yard or someone willing to leash walk him! He is a husky mix so he will need a good physical and mental outlet for all that energy!
Sawyer is a gentle soul that's been failed by humans. We are determined to never let that happen to him again. If you have some extra love to spare, consider making Sawyer a member of the family!
**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs about 60 lbs**
