Here's what the humans have to say about me:
COURTESY LISTING (email alyssa@bapbr.org for adoption application)
Have experience with Huskies?! Then Buck is looking for you!
Buck is an almost 2 year old Siberian Husky who is currently looking for his forever home. He is currently located near Ridgefield, WA. Buck is looking for someone with previous experience with Siberian Huskies, someone who understands his needs to get out his energy and can appreciate that signature husky howl!
Buck is a beautiful guy, but he is more than just a pretty face, he is a boy who needs someone who can commit lots of time to teaching Buck how to be a dog. He is looking for a family or person who will make sure he gets lots of exercise, and has a lot of time to spend with some positive reinforcement training. Once he learns some more, he will make a great hiking partner, beach buddy, and an everyday wonderful companion.
Buck will need an owner who is dedicated to teaching him how to be a dog, and also some manners, which means he will need someone with plenty of time to dedicate to some positive reinforcement training. Buck was purchased as a puppy, he was an impulse buy and ended up spending most of his life either locked in a crate or alone in a backyard. He deserves to be part of someone's family, and will greatly benefit from a person or family who has the time to dedicate to teaching him manners--such as sit, stay, and possibly some recall training (like most other huskies he will run if there's an opportunity!). He would respond greatly to positive reinforcement training, making it fun and rewarding for him to finally learn some of these basic manners! Buck does not respond well to any negative training or negative training tools such as choke chains, electric collars, etc. so it is required that his new home uses only positive training. Because Buck has not had any training and is still young and exuberant, it's best if Buck's new home does not have any small children (under 10) that he may accidentally knock over from excitement, etc. He is also looking for a home with no cats or other small animals. Buck has not had any experience with crate training either, so tends to howl in a crate/kennel. Buck does however love playing with other dogs, both male and female alike! He may benefit from another dog in the home who can show him how to be a dog, but would prefer a dog around his size.
Because he has been neglected for the first part of his life, he will take lots of work and dedication from his new family, and someone with previous Husky experience would fit him best. The work and dedication will all be worth it though because Buck is a wonderful guy who needs some love in his life, and he will definitely give you a lifetime of love in return.
