HI! My name is Bowie and I'm a young husky mix born approximately 2/2/22 and I weigh around 65 pounds. I absolutely love attention from my foster parents and I am extremely food motivated! You will have my undivided attention when teaching me new tricks if you provide the snacks. I can have lots of energy and enjoy letting it out through walks, playing in the yard, and chewing on toys. My parents have gotten me a couple puzzle toys that incorporate food for mental stimulation. I'm very smart and love a challenge! Did I mention I love food?! When we are done exercising and playing, I really like to snuggle and take naps near my family.
I have a good foundation of some basic training and am currently working with my foster parents on new commands. Right now I'm getting really good at waiting to eat my dinner until my parents tell me it's ok (I may drool a little when waiting, and I'm not sure if I can fix that). I am potty trained, and I like to let my parents know when I need to go out by going to the door and lightly pawing at it. On walks, I like to keep pace with my family and will only have a slight tug here and there as I'm curious about the world around me. With all the snow that's fallen, I will sometimes bury my face in it to follow a scent! I am crate trained and I like to sleep in my crate when it's time to go to bed. Both of my foster parents work during the day and I do get a little sad when they leave, but it's only because I want to spend the whole day with them! I am a people person, and will request belly rubs by rolling onto my back.
I have inherited a high prey drive from my husky ancestors, so I don't think I'd be a good fit around cats or other small animals. I am ok about other dogs as long as there's no leashes. However, I am working on my behavioral manners while on leash and seeing new friends. My parents tell me I can be a bit clumsy as I don't fully realize my size and strength. I act like a lap dog and when I get excited, I sometimes run into your legs to greet you and jump. This might be an issue for children or older family members. So if you are looking for a big goof ball to cuddle, exercise, and learn new things with you, then pick me!
