Large Dog Friendly: Yes! Bear is very friendly, but he’s still working on learning cues from other dogs. So, he might not understand that another dog needs space.

Small Dog Friendly: Bear currently lives with a large dog and a medium dog. He loves everyone!

Cat Friendly: Yes, Bear has been around cats in the past. He’s a lover, not a cat eater!

Crate Trained: Bear sleeps nicely in his crate. He does well when he’s kenneled and when we are gone, but he’s very excited to get out once we return.

Housebroken: Yes

Energy Level: Bear is a typical husky. He loves rough, husky play. He also likes to cuddle, but is quick to play from his resting state.

Reaction to New People: Bear is a very happy, excited guy. He’s working on being a gentleman, but meeting new people is so cool he can hardly contain his excitement. He is a fast learner, though, so with time, he’ll get it.

Kid Friendly: Yes and no. He’s a very sweet, but energetic, guy. He also loves to talk. So, I can see how he’d be intimidating to small kids. But, he’s about the sweetest dog I’ve ever met, so I know he would not be mean or aggressive towards a kid.

Training: he’s a fast learner and very treat motivated. When he arrived in foster care, he had absolutely no manners whatsoever. He has picked up commands quickly and seems to thrive in a rule-oriented household.

Grooming Needs: Bear doesn’t love to be brushed, but he tolerates it. He likes to have his belly lightly brushed, so we tend to resort to that often to get him used to being brushed.

Fence: Highly, highly recommended.

Solo or Siblings: Bear would love a rough and tumble sibling. He loves being with his foster brother. They play hard and then cuddle after. Bear also uses cues from his foster brother to learn.

From the Foster: What’s there to say except Bear is a total lover. He loves to explore and meet new people. He loves to play with his foster brother, and he also loves toys. He’s a typical husky with selective hearing, but ready to learn.
