About Cupid

Cupid is a 6-month-old female husky/lab mix with a soft spot for cuddling and play. About 35 lbs now, she's on her way to being a medium-sized adult. Cupid and her siblings had a rough start—left behind as young pups and raised by rescue fosters—but she hasn't let that shape her spirit. Cupid is all heart and curiosity, loving water, romping with dogs of all sizes, and entertaining herself with toys (not your shoes). Her foster describes her as a big teddy bear who switches from play mode to snuggle mode without complaint. She already knows several commands, is housebroken, and settles in her crate. Cupid is good with children, other dogs, and even cats, making her a fit for a family searching for a smart, gentle new member. Medically, she's up to date on all vaccines and will be spayed soon. This Scorpio brings intensity in the best way—equal parts intelligent, loyal, and endlessly affectionate. Cupid is currently being fostered in Middletown, CT.
