About River
Who could say no to this stunning boy?
River is on the hunt for a new home that can give him all the love, respect and security that he needs.
At 3 years old, River has the typical energy and zoomies of a young adult male Husky. He’s a cheeky fella that loves to play with other dogs, loves you to chase him and play, but doesn’t really give two hoots about you! He’s a rather independent lad that makes you work for his affection.
For this reason, River needs a home that isn’t expecting a massive smoocher – he may become one over time as your relationship develops, but you need to be okay with him being an aloof arctic.
Being of such character, River needs a very secure yard with excellent fencing and a family well versed in typical Husky escape proofing and policies! He will thrive with consistency and boundaries, and would love a suitably playful canine companion.
River isn’t suitable around young children due to his exuberance, and is definitely not for the first time Husky owner.
If you’re looking for a new companion that will make you laugh and feel amazing when he does give you a little sugar every now and then, please apply for River today!
River new home requires:
* any children to be at least in their teens
* no cats, pocket pets or other small animals
* daily walks, always on lead
* a reasonable sized yard with grass areas and an undercover area for shelter
* fences and gates will need to be secure and at least 6 foot high
* Arctic breed experience, preferably with Husky ownership, is required.
PLEASE DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU MEET ALL RIVER’S REQUIREMENTS
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
