JONAH

Description

This stunner is Jonah! Jonah appears to be a Siberian Husky/Retriever mix. He is a 9-month-old male who weighs in at approximately 42 pounds. We anticipate him being around 50 pounds when all is said and done, give or take a little. Jonah is a very good boy. He really just loves everyone he meets, is a squishy happy lovey boy, and has an amazing temperament to boot! He would likely do fine in a home with another dog, as well as a home with kids. Meet and greets required for both! Cats are a total unknown. If he is true to his husky roots, it's probably for the best that he goes to a feline free home, but we can, to the best of our ability, try to see his reaction to cats upon request. Regardless, it will probably be something that needs work! Jonah came to us from the Mahoning County Dog Pound, and as such, we don't have much background information on him. He was a stray and remains a bit of a mystery. He does have a temperament to die for - very jolly and outgoing with most everyone. Occasionally, taller bigger folks may give him pause, but he recovers quickly with only a hint of suspicion. He is learning how to behave on a leash and improves with every outing. We are trying to make sure he has more and more of them! He knows how to sit and has the capacity and brains to learn all sorts of things, truth be told. Huskies can be a bit independent, outside of the box thinkers, which can challenge some owners - but this boy has enough of that highly biddable retriever in him to make it a little easier to navigate! This boy is definitely going to need regular brushing and perhaps a de-shed at a groomer twice a year, but honestly, that's what most dogs need! No reason not to take home your blue eyed handsome man sooner rather than later!Jonah is not quite ready for adoption, but we are accepting applications currently to review.
