Here's what the humans have to say about me:
BENNETT is a people loving Husky/Malamute (best guess). He is 5 years old and 58 pounds. Everyone who has met him falls in love!
He is fostered in McMinnville, Oregon and we will meet folks with screened applications partway or pall the way to Eugene, Sisters, Bend, and other Mid-Willamette Valley areas.
He is a super sweet boy that spent the first 5 years of his life chained to a tree, but despite that, he has such joie de vie.
He's keen to explore and learn about all the things he's missed out on. He's learning new things every day: how to "sit", "wait", "leave it" and recall, as well as leash manners.
He loves car rides and is up for any adventure. He appears to be crate trained, and he keeps his kennel clean. He has been visiting in his foster home, but has not lived full time in a house, so he will need some help with the adjustment to full time house living.
He does not potty or mark in the horse stall that is currently his home, so we believe he will be easy to house train.
He has been neutral with other dogs, even really annoying Border Collies! He could be a great hiking/adventure buddy and could probably have fun doing dog sports like barn hunt or nosework, maybe agility or .... ?
This boy is a super sweet, snuggly dog who really deserves an opportunity to make up for all he’s missed out on in his first 5 years. He has such potential!
Bennett is neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, flea & tick treated and micro-chipped. He is on flea, tick and heartworm prevention. His adoption fee is 300.
A great home for Bennett and his must haves include:
1. An owned home with a full size and securely six foot fenced yard.
2. Adopters who have rescue AND northern breed experience or who have researched the breed well.
3. Folks who consider their pets as family members.
4. Adopters who are up for transitioning him to be an indoor dog. We will help you!
If you meet ALL the above criteria, please either inquire or apply.
To inquire, please email: awoofovermyhead@gmail.com with "Bennett" in the subject line. Tell us a bit about yourself and how Bennett will fit into your life. Leave a phone number so that we may reach out.
