River

Husky Mix Male 9 years old 68 lbs. Golden / Hazel eyes Red-White-White fur coat Hi, my name is River. I'm an older husky mix, and I have been at Free Spirit for years now, patiently waiting for a new home. People often tell me I'm beautiful, with a unique look and color that stands out. I absolutely love going for car rides, where I'm very well-behaved, and I enjoy long hikes in the woods, taking in all the sights and smells. Playing fetch and exploring in my yard are also some of my favorite activities. I know all my commands and take treats nicely, making me a great companion for someone who appreciates a well-mannered dog. My dream is to have a fenced-in yard in a quiet, low-stress home where I can relax and feel safe. While I don't get along with cats, I might be a good friend for another dog, and I'd be happy to meet them to see if we could be pals! I like kids if they respect my boundaries and allow me to get to know them. However, if younger children tease me too much, I can get stressed. I'm generally very quiet and well-behaved, but I can have moments of anxiety when in a stressful situation. I need a family that understands this and will work with me to help me feel secure. If you give me a chance, I promise to be a loving companion in your home for years to come. I can't wait to find that special family who will appreciate all the love and joy I have to offer. ***If adopted, River will come with a six session training package to successfully transition to home life.*** Special Training: Free Spirit Siberian Rescue cannot make any guarantee regarding the outcome of any cat testing done.
