Want to smile constantly? Laugh a lot too? Want a turn-key dog? For the person who knows the challenges and joys of living with a Northern Breed, this young boy is the answer to your dreams. An EXCEPTIONAL young mal-sibe mix, King is Malamute size, malamute feet and malamute features) with a Siberian coat, one blue eye, and SWEET disposition. He has been well socialized and only asks to be near you, voicing his unhappiness otherwise.

Within 2 hours of arriving at his foster home, he was playing well with ALL his foster moms dogs and will be MOST happy with a canine companion to exercise with. He is well-mannered in the house, crates himself, is housetrained, and quite laid-back when snoozing on the couch. But, he much prefers to lie next to your chair for random ear scratching and tummy rubs.

He is sprightly and interested in his surroundings on a walk and does not pull the flexi-lead. But you need to be Northern Breed savvy; King has been seen deftly leaping onto the rounded dogloo igloo with HIGH interest in the pond ducks and a strong determination to find a way down from the deck to get them; he is a clever problem solver.

Kings supposed food aggression has not shown at his foster home, but his fostermom ALWAYS feeds her dogs separately. He tolerated having his dish taken away, toys too and expressed no aggression when she trimmed his toe nails or pulled out summer-shed hair tufts). His expression of high interest in ducks seems to indicate a strong prey drive ~V in ducks anyway - so a home without small creatures is necessary. Unknown with small children, he might make a wonderful companion for an older child.

King is being fostered in Puyallup, WA.
