FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Hansel! At 3 1/2 years old and weighing 55 pounds, Hansel is a striking mix of Husky and Australian Cattle Dog who arrived from a rescue in California after being abandoned with a sibling. Despite his tough beginnings, he exudes sweetness and affection, eagerly searching for a family that matches his active lifestyle. Hansel embodies the spirited traits typical of both breeds. He's intelligent, athletic, and enthusiastic about adventure. Whether it's hiking, running, or exploring trails, Hansel needs a family committed to giving him regular physical exercise and mental stimulation. He enjoys the company of other dogs and engages in playful roughhousing, though he prefers careful introductions. While playing, he sometimes gets growly—it's just his way of expressing joy during fun time.
