Despin could have a bit of Malamute in his genes as he is already a big boy at his age. Despin came from a shelter in New Mexico and was picked up as a stray. He will need consistency with his training, but this boy is smart, as well as a quick learner. Despin is 'Husky' aloof, but he does make sure to check in with his humans. He gets along best with dogs his size or just a bit smaller as he likes to play rough. Despin would be a great dog to hike with or pull a sled for you. He enjoys having a job. Despin would do best in a home with an active family, older children (due to his size), other dogs similar in size, and a minimum of a 5ft fence.
