Zeus

Husky Chow Chow

Male, Puppy
Commerce, GA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,
Story
Zeus is a sweet, goofy, high-energy Chowsky puppy who is currently around 35–45 lbs at about 18 weeks old. If you’ve seen the new DCU Superman, he’s basically a little Krypto lol. He’s playful, curious, goofy, and always ready to be involved in whatever you are doing. Zeus is still very much a puppy and needs someone who has the time and patience for training. He hasn’t had much socialization with other dogs yet, so his behavior around dogs is unknown. He will chase cats, although he has not shown aggression toward them. Around children, he can get overly excited, knock them over, and nip, so a home with older children or adults who understand puppy behavior would probably be the best fit.
