Russo, a young Husky mix, is a seven-month-old with a gentle but timid personality. New people make him uneasy, and he’ll need a patient adopter who can go slow and earn his trust. He’s bonded with other dogs in his foster home and has shown playful energy, but with a tendency toward food and toy guarding that will need continued work. Russo is house and crate trained. He’s managed to get over a 4-foot fence just to be with his human, so secure containment is important. He walks well on leash under calm conditions, but noisy, crowded areas can frighten him. Once he feels safe, Russo relaxes into a friendly, fun companion. He gets along with children, enjoys the company of other dogs, and will chase the foster cat out of spirited play—he means no harm, but will need guidance. Ready to meet your new best friend?
