Story
Hey y'all, would anyone be interested in our 6 year old husky mix, Badger? He has not adjusted well since we had our baby. We are heartbroken over it because he is such a good and goofy boy. He is medium to high energy and loves to play. He loves to do tricks and fancy fetch moves. We have all vet records and he is up to date on shots and preventatives. He is also kennel trained and comes with a brand new kennel. We would not recommend a household with cats or small dogs, since he has been bullying our small cat since the baby came home. He is also great with elementary age children and has been very good with our baby. He is about 45 lbs.
