My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Newman, a young, striking husky with a heart full of joy and a smile that could melt snow! This happy, social boy is always ready for adventure, whether it’s zooming around the yard, showing off his elegant prance, or collapsing for belly rubs after a good play session. Newman’s personality shines through in everything he does, from his curious nature to the way his tongue lolls out of his mouth like he’s laughing at life itself.

Newman is fully kennel and house trained, and he sleeps soundly through the night without a peep. He’s actively working on his leash manners but walks are just so exciting, it’s hard not to pull! He’s an inquisitive, athletic pup who thrives with activity, structure, and affection. His favourite things in the world are praise and pets from his people, though chasing squeaky toys and crunching on a frozen kibble treat come in close behind.

Newman is a friendly, forward dog who loves to meet new canine friends, though his playful “in-your-face” energy can be a bit much for some. He does best with confident female dogs of similar size and play style.

He does require a home without cats (they’re far too tempting to chase). He hasn’t met kids yet, but with his youthful enthusiasm and love of attention, older children who understand boundaries could be a great fit once he’s learned to manage his excitement and puppy impulses.

Newman is equal parts goofy and graceful, a loyal, loving companion who’s as ready for couch cuddles as he is for outdoor adventures. Don't let his cuddles confuse you, he is a true definition of a you husky!
