BELFORT - SIBERIAN HUSKY / ALASKAN MALAMUTE / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Siberian Husky / Alaskan Malamute / Mixed. Belfort is a large husky mix that loves to be with and near people. He is happiest when he can be within 5 feet or so of his 'humans', even while sleeping. He is house trained and capable of spending unsupervised time alone without being destructive. While alone he loves to sleep on couches, blankets and pillows. He weighs approximately 74lbs and is up to date on vaccines as of April 2024. He is 4 years old. Activity: Belfort is great at matching your energy level. He can be just as happy on mile(s) long walks/hikes as he is cuddling with you on the couch all afternoon. His favorite game is fetch and he's willing to do so with any toy he can find. He loves chew toys, but plays fetch best with 'soft' toys. He does not show any real interest in chewing on or destroying toys. Belfort plays best with toys, but will try to play nibble/nuzzle when playing with adult men (no interest in doing so with women). People: Belfort loves to meet new people and will immediately befriend visitors including contractors. He can be excited and jumpy at first, but calms down naturally within a few minutes or with a treat. On numerous occasions he has proven to be comfortable sleeping near and on visitors within an hour or so of meeting them. Food: Belfort is currently on a diet of IAMS Large Breed (chicken) dog food. Outside of that, he gets one dental bone (Greenies - Large) Each day around noon and treats when meeting new people. Dislikes: Belfort's dislikes include: - Being confined in small spaces without people around (EX: A dog crate) - He will 'wail' like a dog ambulance - Having his paws touched - He immediately pulls them away in discomfort, but does not show signs of aggression. He seems friendly with large dogs, not a fan of small ones because the neighbors small dogs are poorly trained. !
