Aspen arrived at the kennel in 2023 after the loss of his musher. There’s a quiet charm to him—he tends to be reserved at first, but warms up with a little patience. Once comfortable, Aspen is full of life and looking for an active household ready for adventure. He’s best with female dogs and settles in with good introductions, but doesn’t get along with cats and needs supervised introductions to small animals. Indoors, expect some puppy-like adjustment—he’ll need exposure to household noises, car rides, and new routines. He isn’t house trained yet, so be ready to help him learn what’s expected. Aspen is all about exercise; daily walks, long hikes, and interactive toys make all the difference for him. Always keep him leashed or in a fenced yard until he masters recall, as sled dogs can be quick to roam. He's friendly with the right canine company and even has a track record of making feline friends elsewhere. Aspen needs someone patient and steady, willing to ease him into home life instead of expecting instant comfort. With consistent training and plenty of affection, Aspen will reward your work tenfold.
