Meet Petunia — an 8 lb, 3 month old possible Husky mix (little nugget) who is as adorable as she is sweet! Quick Facts: Name: Petunia Breed: Husky Mix Age: 3 months old Weight: 8 lbs. House-Trained: Working on it! Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Yes Good with Kids: Yes – best with dog savvy school aged kids Energy Level: Medium Fence Required: No About Petunia’s Breed: Our best guess is that Petunia is Husky mixed breed. Huskies are energetic, intelligent, and social dogs known for their striking looks and strong working dog instincts. They were originally bred for endurance and cold climates, which is why they tend to be active, alert, and happiest when they have a job or plenty of stimulation. An ideal home for a Husky is one that can provide regular exercise, mental enrichment, and structure. They thrive with active families who enjoy outdoor activities and can offer consistent training. Because of their thick coats and high energy, they do best in cooler environments and in households prepared for shedding, play, and lots of companionship. What to Love about Petunia: Petunia is an easy puppy with a fun, playful spirit and a love for toys, especially when she can gallop around shaking her favorite stuffies! After playtime, she’s happiest being scooped up for cuddles, giving tiny hugs and kisses like the affectionate little girl she is. Petunia sleeps through the night, enjoys being held, and has that perfect mix of spunk and snuggle! She’s still working through all the normal puppy things — potty training, leash learning, and a bit of mouthy play — but she’s already crate trained and does well being left alone for short periods. Petunia has been wonderful with dogs, cats, and every human she meets, and she does great with dog savvy kids who understand puppy energy.
