Age: 3 years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Siberian Husky mix
Weight: 55 lbs
Personality: He is a shy boy and gaining confidence everyday!
Education: Good with bathroom, crate and working on leash training
Favorite Activities: Loves to eat cream cheese! He likes a safe space to retreat to relax, but will happily play and exercise when given the chance.
Looking for: A mellow family, preferably with a gentle doggie sibling to teach him confidence. No cats in the home and preferably children 10 years and older than can be respectful of his space. He will need a safe space while he decompresses and parents who advocate for him with new people. He is very assured and interetsed in the outside world, all critters, dogs and sight s to see. Bog trucks and motorcycles are still a bit scary.
Special needs: To help manage by anxiety, I am taking Prozac (~$5-10 for a months supply, price may vary based on market value and where purchased). Medication will need to be monitored by an established vet.
Adoption Fee: $ 300
Just a bud waiting to bloom!
Hi fellas! My name is Diogenes, and Dio for short! I am a 3 year old, neutered male Siberian Husky mix, weighing about 55 lbs. I came from a bad hoarding situation in Mississippi and boy, am I glad that TAP rescued me! They have the best fosters and I am at the bestest one where I am learning to overcome my anxieties and have gained so much confidence. I have come a long way since I have been with my foster mama! I am fully bathroom and crate trained, and greatly improved my leash walking skills and get excited when I see my walking harness and leash come out.
I came from a troubled situation and have made great strides with a TLC. I have dog foster siblings and have done really well with them since they are so calm. For my continued confidence building, calm mellow dogs would be ideal, but also have shown to be the most patient and tolerant guy around little puppies. I have exhibited prey drive and will need a feline-free home, but love a tortoise friend in my neighborhood! I have been exposed to and met older children that I was curious to learn more about who were calm and respectful around me. I am quite athletic and love to romp around in the yard! Maybe we can do some fun obstacle training? I have a lot of love in my heart and after getting comfortable at this home, I now request pets!
I really can’t wait to go to my furever family! I would do best in a calm and mellow environment where I continue to blossom and thrive! A safe space for my retreat will really help me. Calm dogs who can mentor me? Pawfect! I will need my pawrents to advocate for my space around new people, and help to continue to build my confidence. I am currently taking Prozac to help my anxiety (~$5-10 for a months supply, depending on where purchased and market value). Do you think you can be my everything?
