Meet Cyprus! 🐾
Male • Husky Mix • Active & Affectionate
Survivor of the PG county animal services Urgent / euthanasia list.
Cyprus is a strikingly handsome & strong willed Husky mix with a heart full of love and a spirit ready to thrive. After living most of his life outside, this sweet boy is quickly learning the joys of being an “inside dog.” He’s still figuring out the comforts of home life—like soft beds, treats, and regular meals—but he’s adjusting beautifully. He eats his food with urgency, a little reminder of his past, but he’s starting to trust that meals will always be there.
Cyprus is incredibly people-oriented and wants nothing more than to be close to his humans. He’s very active and will do best with an active couple or individual who can match his energy and give him the structure he needs. A fenced-in yard is strongly preferred, but he’ll also do great with frequent leash walks, runs, and mental stimulation.
Due to his high prey drive, Cyprus should not be placed in a home with cats, small dogs, or small animals. Older children who can follow direction / listen to their parents about rules with the dog will be okay to have as human siblings, where he can continue to learn, bond, and be part of the pack. He is dog friendly as long as the other pup is not overly dominant.
Experience with owning large , strong willed dogs / huskies or similiar personality breeds is 100% required for him. He is not a dog for first time or inexperienced dog owners. He does need some continued training to learn leash manners (but we can’t blame him since it’s evidently clear he wasn’t outside dog based off of his demeanor, overall condition, and the fly strikes on his ears)
Cyprus is ready to leave his past behind and become someone’s loyal adventure buddy or newest member of the family. Could that be you?
