Charles

German Shepherd Dog Husky

Male, Adult

Berkeley, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I hope to find a home that can accommodate his love for walks and adventure while also giving him space indoors to snooze the day away. A home with a yard for zoomies is a plus. Charles hasn’t had much experience with other animals or kids but he is very enthusiastic about meeting new people. He would need some training to know to be gentle with his excitement. I think he would do well in a home with older kids (10+) and big dogs. Small dogs don’t like him. He is used to getting groomed on a regular basis and will let you brush his teeth, grind his nails, and bathe and de-shed him. Charles can stay home alone without being destructive and is used to routine. He does not like small spaces, especially car rides. Maybe a little training and a bigger car can change that. Some leash training would benefit him as he does pull, especially when walking in a new environment. Commands he knows: Sit, Paw, Lie Down, On Your Bed, Wait, Stay, (bringing his bowl to you after eating), and more!

Jax

Australian Shepherd Beagle

Male, Adult

Berkeley, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I need to re-home my handsome 4-year-old, Jax. He has basic command, crate, and potty training and we have had a couple of great years of running, walking, and hiking in rural Vermont. He has had fantastic vet care and a Farmers Dog diet. After driving him to the West Coast, I found that my travel, long hours, and city life are not compatible with his need for companionship and exercise. He is half mini-Aussie, quarter Beagle, quarter Bulldog rescue, and is at his happiest running on leash, racing dogs in a park, and snuggling with anyone. I would love to chat more if you are interested and/or coordinate a meet up!

He has a big heart and a calm, affectionate nature that makes him the perfect companion for quiet days at home. But don’t let his love of snuggles fool you—Bruce also enjoys getting out for a nice stroll and will happily wag along beside you on an adventure. A little bit of playtime is always welcome too, especially when it means spending time with the people he loves most.
