Jake is a 5 year old Shepherd/husky cross with TONS of energy. He is crate and house trained.
He LOVES to be with people. His owner sadly passed away of a terminal illness. Jake lived on a tether outside while his owner was ill. He adapted to living a low energy life. When he was surrendered to our care. He went to live with a dog trainer on a farm where he for the first time was allowed to be a dog and he EXPLODED with years of pent up energy. He has a large fenced in area to run and play and takes full advantage of that. He has bounds of endless energy. We are convinced once he gets into a family setting, he will settle down into a less energetic style. Jake just needs a family to love him. allow him some time to learn and settle down and be part of the family. He can not get enough attention from his people. He is a talker he loves to chuff and talk back to you when you talk to him. ( typical husky talk) He can not wait for visitors to come greet him. He has so much love to give. He has learned so many commands and completely submits and respects a firm voice. He has not got a mean bone in his body. He does have high prey drive and chases anything in his yard. For this reason we say no cats. He has been great with all dogs that can handle his energy level. He has even been a great dog in training classes his foster mom holds and helps shy dogs learn. As with any dogs with big weight differences, they should be monitored so he doesn't accidentally knock over a small dog while playing. He would be good with medium 30 pounds or more dogs. He does great in training classes with other dogs.
Jake MUST have a fully fenced in fairly good sized yard to run in. Horse fencing will not work as Jakes recall is not that great yet. We also fear he would blow through invisible fencing.
He needs to be taken for a nice walk daily in addition to playtime in the yard. He is a wonderful loving, sweet boy and he needs his forever home.
