Description

Dog Breed: Husky / Siberian Husky. Age: 3 years Size: 40 lbs Estimated breed: Husky Lives with: People Perfect home: Single animal home, or extremely tolerant similarly sized dog and ability to follow strict decompression Beautiful Mario was saved from an overcrowded shelter in Maryland, when his time was up and he found himself euthanasia-listed only due to a lack of space. On top of being extremely emaciated at only 35 lbs with every rib sticking out, Mario showed signs of neurological challenges, which is beyond the shelter’s limited ability to care for. We had him assessed by our neurologist, who confirmed Mario’s symptoms are consistent with cerebellar ataxia, a disorder that affects the cerebellum region of the brain. The effects on Mario’s day-to-day life are minimal and do not cause him any pain, and does not require any additional medical treatment! Despite being three years old, many of his mannerisms and development milestones are much closer to that of a young puppy. He strives to please his people and is very food-motivated, making teaching him fun! With consistency and a patient handler, Mario thrives just like any other dog. Mario is a 3 year old, 41 lbs husky who has cerebellar ataxia. This affects his coordination, gait, and his brain development. His trainers have been helping him with his impulse control and learning doggie social cues. Mario adores other dogs but comes on super strong, and doesn’t always listen when other dogs tell him no. He’s had a few short successful play sessions with the trainer’s extremely tolerant dog! Mario adores all people, does not have a mean bone in his body, and is fine with older kids (12+) who can handle his mouthiness. He’s great in the car, walks fantastic on leash and is not reactive, making him the perfect sidekick to take with you on fun adventures! - Mario will thrive as the only animal in the home. He could potentially live with another dog who can match his energy and size. It will take time before the dogs are able to cohabitate. - his people must have patience and understand things are not going to be perfect at first. It will take time for Mario to adjust and learn his new environment and family. Things cannot be rushed with him. - his people must also be willing to go through "boot camp" with his training team. Mario has some learning challenges and understanding how to work with him is going to be very important. - He should have family members who are home more often than not. Mario is more similar to a 9-month old puppy than a 3 year old, so he needs frequent potty breaks in order to be set up for success!

All of our dogs are working on their crate and house training. PA Kennel License #18366
