Story
Born Aug. 1 in a shelter and I fostered him. He is too rambunctious for my old smaller dog. He would love a dog he could play with. He’s 1/3 Guard Dog, 1/3 Herding, 1/3 Hound. He is potty trained and has held it atleast 4 hours. He rings a string of jingle bells on the door when he wants to go outside. I’m currently training him to bark when he wants in and out so that it’s easier to hear. He learns quickly when rewarded with a treat- knows how to sit, lay down, shake, and has been working on stay and speak. I’ve left him in the car for about 2 hours. He’s submissive to other dogs and enjoys meeting people, but will bark loudly when he sees someone in the driveway or hears a strange noise. He’s fixed, shots are up to date, microchipped, on heartworm prevention. DNA breed results are available. We have a stray cat that he chases, but if he caught her, I don’t think he would hurt her.

Story
Chance has been a wonderful, loving dog. We have had him since he was 8 weeks old. He has never been aggressive towards our smaller dog (weenie dog) or my mom's small dog (min. Yorkie) but he is aggressive towards other dogs if he gets loose. We live in a neighborhood and he has gotten out twice and both times attacked dogs. And being as big as he is, he usually has done damage. He is a big baby, always wants to cuddle and be close to you. He is potty trained, never goes in the house. And stays in the house without accidents or damaging things for 8-10 hours. It breaks our hearts to rehome him. And will only give to a loving home. Unfortunately with the dog attacks to other neighbor dogs it has left us with not a lot of options. I would like to also let you know. He has never broke out or dug out of his fenced in yard. Unfortunately the front door was left open by a house sitter while we were on vacation. So if you have a fenced in yard he won't bust out.

100% Full Blooded Siberian Husky.

He needs a yard to be let loose in and run out all his energy, he loves balls of any sort, Frisby and tug of war are his favorites. He needs more attention and opportunities outside, he is a very intelligent dog and needs an experienced owner to match him. He knows sit, down, paw or 5, kisses, Frisby, bone and ball.
