Meet Alaska! Born around March 2020, he is wonderfully goofy, affectionate, and playful. He weighs a healthy 90 pounds.
Alaska loves people, and will go right up to strangers to get his massive head petted. He loves kids and does well with them.
Sweet Alaska loves to go for walks and does great on leash. At times he will stop and just lean against your legs for some love.
Alaska loves to play, but generally has a low amount of energy, and doesn’t need an excessive amount of exercise. He could even be a good apartment dog, assuming he is allowed due to his size.
He loves to lounge next to doorways and do his job of being a speed bump and potential protector.
Alaska is fully house trained. He sits for treats and takes them gently. He is crate trained but can be a little whiney if his is left there without being close to his human.
He does well in the car and is a calm and patient boy most of the time.
He barks occasionally outside at strangers and loud noises.
Alaska is highly dog-selective, but he does great with cats.
He is in a foster home with other dogs, some of which he likes. There is one he does not like, so those two need to be kept separate. He is not appropriate for dog parks because he can be aggressive toward some dogs.
He has accidentally scratched people or knocked them off-balance when he is playing or greeting excitedly, so caution should be taken when introducing him to new people.
When we saved him from a local shelter, Alaska had an extremely enlarged bladder stone. We quickly got him to a veterinarian where they successfully removed the stone. He was an amazingly sweet patient. Alaska eats a special diet to keep him from ever having to deal with bladder stones again.
