About Patches

Patches is a young Husky mix with a beautiful white and cream coat and a medium build. At around one year old, he’s still in the early stretch of his dog years but already shows a quick mind and a capacity for strong bonds. He’s friendly and full of spirit, though he still startles easily and will need an adopter who can help him build confidence at his own pace. Patches wants to attach closely—sometimes a little too closely—so he’ll be best suited for someone ready to put in the time and patience. He learns quickly and will reward your efforts many times over with love and loyalty. Born October 2, Patches falls under the sign of Libra, which might explain his search for balance and connection.
