About Wrangler on hold

Wranglerfriendly! is a young Catahoula Leopard Dog and Husky mix currently fostered in Pennsylvania and available for adoption in Seymour, CT.

He’s still learning new commands but already shows his smart, loving nature. He enjoys playing with other dogs, snuggling with people, and thrives with gentle, confident humans. While he can be shy with new faces, he quickly warms up, especially if treats are involved. Wranglerfriendly! does well with older children and prefers a home that understands his vision limits and dietary needs. He brings energy, sweetness, and a little extra character to each day.
