My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I am a very low maintenance kind of dog. I'm very quiet and quite calm. I love being with my humans, especially during thunder and fireworks because it scares me. Otherwise, I'm the king of relaxation! I do well with children, other dogs and even cats!

I'm a very calm guy. But, if a storm is coming through, or fireworks are going off, I need my human nearby. If I have a furry brother or sister who free-feeds and doesn't eat their breakfast or dinner, I might politely sneak a taste. Car rides give me shivers, but I couldn't be better when we get where we're going! Public or private events, I'm great and well behaved at both. House trained and proud. Finally, absolutely no crates for me! I promise I won't misbehave unless a storm is nearby and you're not here. If you aren't, I will try to dig at doors and the floor to get out and find you.

Cats are my favorites—day-to-day low maintenance like me! I grew up with two brothers and have lots of dog buddies! I get along with most furry friends, but ask them for some space with my food. I may need to take the time to get to know other males sometimes, usually if they are intact or are also huskies.

I absolutely love people—children, teens, adults, doesn't matter to me. They love me, and I want to meet them all if you give me permission!

Not a huge toy pup, but I am always down for walks! If you like to hike too, even better!

I'd do best with someone who can be home or with me consistently! Retirees, people who work from home, houses with stay-at-home spouses, or a human needing a special, furry emotional support friend to be by their side—all great matches for me. Constant attention not needed at all, in fact I keep to myself a lot. But your presence keeps me calm with scary thunder and fireworks!

Adoption fee includes a training program specific to the dogs needs.
