About Mako
Being incredibly good looking has been Mako’s downfall. This spunky teenager has had 4 homes in his short life, not because he’s a bad doggo, but because each home hasn’t had the skills to handle a young Malamute-Husky cross.
Mako will require:
* A home as an only dog, or he may be okay with a female dog of similar size
* No children, unless they are older teens
* No cats, pocket pets or other animals
* Daily walks, always on lead
* A reasonably large yard with grass areas for digging and an undercover area for shelter
* Not suitable for apartment living or small court yards.
* Fences and gates will need to be at least 6 foot high, secure and dig-proof
* Homes with arctic breed experience, preferably with boisterous young Malamutes or
Huskies, will be given priority
He’s an energetic lad that needs a yard to cut zoomies in, as well as a daily walk. He needs a family that understand that he WILL be cheeky and see what he can get away with, and be prepared to set consistent, firm boundaries.
Mako plays in the typical rough, boisterous fashion of a young Arctic breed, plus he has the usual prey drive towards small creatures that move quickly. He may be suitable to live with a similar-sized, confident female dog that could help him learn a few life skills and manners.
Mako needs a secure yard with dig proof fencing at least 6 foot high. Due to his immaturity, he is not suitable to live with children.
If your home is breed experienced, ready for the challenge of a teenage jerk dog and you can commit to ongoing training to help Mako become an even more awesome dog than he currently is, please apply to adopt or foster this gorgeous boy!
