For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
I'm a handsome Husky around 14 years old, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and microchipped. When I first arrived, I was so shut down that I slept for three days straight. It was clear that the trauma from being abandoned hit me hard—I barely ate and was just skin and bones. But over time, I slowly started to come out of my shell. After two and a half weeks, I've become a true member of the family, and I'm slowly gaining weight and looking much healthier.
At first, it seemed like I was ignoring everything around me, but my human realized that I'm mostly deaf. I can only hear very loud noises, so I like to stay close and be a bit of a shadow. I'm pretty smart, though, and I've learned to understand basic hand signs and commands. I'm usually quiet, but like most Huskies, I can get vocal when the mood strikes.
I'm housebroken, non-destructive, and have very little prey drive. I'm also good with cats, very affectionate, and I love being petted and cuddled. For my age, I'm still pretty active and enjoy going on long walks. I'm great on a leash with only minimal pulling, and I get along well with other dogs. However, I wouldn't be the best match for small children since I'm sometimes a bit unsteady on my legs and could get hurt around them. I think as I continue to gain weight, I'll become more stable.
Overall, I'm in good health and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal and loving friend.
