Story
Meet Potato - your soon-to-be favourite comfort food.
Potato is a 3-year-old male Husky mix who is the perfect combination of playful silliness, a loving heart, and a wonderfully hearty spirit. This lovable pup adores other dogs, and has proven to be gentle and sweet. Whether he's cruising in the car, showing off his "sit" and "down," or trotting along proudly on his halti, Potato is always ready to be part of the action. (And man -- look at that smile and face -- Potato is 100% handsome and his happiness is contagious!). Potato loves his playing with his foster siblings and truly enjoys their company. Potato can feel the need to guard his food, water and treats so its important to give him his space and understand his needs.
Like any growing spud, Potato is still working on a few things. He's very food-motivated (seriously... he will do anything for a treat), which makes training both fun and effective. He thrives on routine and is fully house trained. He's strong on leash but improving, and while he may test boundaries with mouthing when overstimulated, he responds well to guidance and correction. Potato requires a strong handler with experience that can provide structure and continuous training. Potato is not suitable for a home with children. Due to a bite incident Potato is looking for an adult only home.
Potato is an active, playful boy who loves romping with dog friends and, true to his name, has a talent for digging - after all, potatoes do belong in the dirt. He would do best in a home that can provide supervision and consistency as he settles in. In return, you'll get a loyal, affectionate companion who is equal parts cuddly and fun, with just enough quirky charm to keep life interesting.
If you're looking for a dog who's comforting, full of personality, and impossible not to love... Potato might just be your perfect match.
