Borris's Story

Name: Borris<br/><br/>Sex: Male<br/><br/>Color: Black & White<br/><br/>Eye Color: Bi-Eyes, one blue/one brown<br/><br/>Birthday: 04/25/2022<br/><br/>Weight: 67 lbs <br/><br/>Large Dog Friendly: Yes<br/><br/>Small Dog Friendly: Yes<br/><br/>Cat Friendly: Not really, he doesn't want to eat them, from what we can tell, but he is way too interested for comfort.<br/><br/>Crate Trained: No, we are working on this. He will do short stints (10 min or so) while he is eating, or if we are practicing, but he is extremely vocal and unsettled if put in kennel for any longer period of time. Currently he is sleeping with his foster parents in their bed or on the floor in the room. <br/><br/>Housebroken: Yes. He had one poo accident in his foster's home the very first night within a few mintes of arriving, otherwise, he has not had an accident in his fosters home.<br/><br/>Energy Level: Medium - He can be very high energy at mealtimes and on walks, but he also loves to curl up on the couch and chill.<br/><br/>Reaction to New People: Curious, friendly, wants to meet and get pets.<br/><br/>Kid Friendly: Seems to be; fosters don't have children, but the children he has interacted with on walks he seems to have been fine with.<br/><br/>Training: Knows sit, shake, other and, 'sometimes' stay. <br/><br/>Grooming Needs: Shorter husky coat. Typical husky grooming should be expected. <br/> <br/>Fence: <br/>Highly recommend. His fosters have a 6' fence and that has been fine. He digs when he is bored.<br/> <br/>Solo or Siblings: Either would work. He really likes to have his foster sister around, she seems to settle him somewhat from his seperation anxiety.<br/><br/>From the Foster: Boris is a sweet, sweet boy. He is a total lap dog, loves to lay on the couch or on the bed with his people and at times can be a very 'demaning' cuddler. We feed him and his foster sister seperatly, and that seems to work well. We recently introduced toys while the two of them are together and that seems to be going well. Boris loves to go for walks and car rides. He loves to spend time outside as well as chilling inside. We took him to a dog friendly restaurant and he did well. Took him a little bit to settle down, but then he was about as polite as a 3.5 year old husky can be expected to be. While we don't know his full background, we believe he had a bonded sister at one point. He does not like being left alone, especially in a kennel. He gets very upset and vocal. Boris would be a great addition to a family in need of a silly, sweet, cuddly and sometimes chaotic husky!<br/><br/>Adoption Fee: $350<br/><br/>All dogs coming into Adopt a Husky Minnesota receive care tailored to their needs, including: Nose-to-tail exam with a partner veterinarian, Vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella), 4DX test to check for heartworm or tick exposure, Fecal Analysis, Heartworm and Flea/Tick Preventative, Spay/Neuter prior to adoption, Microchip, and are evaluated for temperament and trainability.
