ZAREK - SHEPHERD / HUSKY / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Shepherd / Husky / Mixed. Zarek is a 16-week-old, 18-lb Shepherd/husky mix (best guess) who is a fun, sensitive, and sweet puppy. He’s full of playful personality, especially when he lets out his tiny growls to convince his sister to play! He LOVES tug-of-war with rope toys and enjoys chasing games around the couch. As a very puppy-energetic boy with working-breed traits, Zarek will thrive in a home ready to provide consistent training, structure, and plenty of exercise. Zarek adjusted very well to his foster home. He is still working on potty training and is learning how to signal when he needs to go outside. He isn’t crate-trained yet, but he settles nicely once placed inside and is making great progress. He’s vocal when he wants to play or when he’s ready to start the day, but he does not bark or whine for long periods when left alone. He is curious with other dogs but can be timid. He would benefit from ankther dog in the home to help him gain more confidence. He has done well with his foster family's dog-savvy cat, though a proper introduction is recommended with new cats. He met kids once and had fun playing with them! He would do best with kids who respect his boundaries. Zarek is a playful, loving little guy with a sensitive heart, ready to find a forever family to grow up with.
