Story
Calling all husky lovers!Meet Osiris, the fluff-butt on a mission to find himself a family! Osiris was surrendered a few months ago after his previous owner was no longer able to care for him. This boy is a total clown and lives up to many of his breed's traits!During the daily canine chorus here at the shelter, Osiris has a very distinct voice that echoes through the halls. We often joke that he has a very promising career as a singer. He has tons of personality that keeps staff members smiling and shaking their heads at his silly antics. He's very playful with everyone he meets and generally a good-natured dog. Osiris does well about keeping his kennel clean when let out regularly and seems to catch onto new routines with ease. He loves to play ball out back but still hasn't quite mastered fetch. He does well on leash and really enjoys long walks. So if you're into hiking trails, this might be the perfect pup for you!So far, Osiris has been pretty indifferent to the other shelter dogs and would likely do fine with another canine sibling. We were told by his previous owner that he only did well with the cats inside of the home and we have yet to cat-test him with some of the shelter cats (we will update his description once that has been done!). Because he does not recognize his own size, he might not be the best candidate for a home with small children. He's still working on not jumping up to kiss every person he sees! We were also told that Osiris does have the tendency to be a bit of an escape artist and will take himself on a long run if given the chance. Because of this, we strongly suggest a fenced yard with supervision or a home that's willing to walk him daily. We would not recommend using a tie-out for him. If you need someone to keep you extra cozy on the couch, consider bringing this blue-eyed babe home! **Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs about 50 lbs**
