About Lupo

Meet Lupo, an 8-month-old Husky mix who came to the rescue from a local cruelty case. Along with his mom and siblings, he’s found a new lease on life with the help of a loving foster family. Here, he’s learning that being indoors isn’t scary and that he can trust the people around him. Lupo is full of energy and spirit, thriving with his canine siblings and relishing every opportunity for play, especially if water is involved. Whether it's fetching toys or frolicking in a pool, he’s always ready for a splash. At home, Lupo shows progress in his house training and is playful with other dogs. Although he's good on a leash, he can pull as he adjusts to life outside. As a puppy, he might exhibit mouthy behavior during play, so he requires guidance, crate training, and lots of chew toys to channel his energy. Ideal for families with children aged 10 and older, Lupo needs another playful dog to help him build confidence. Consistent walks and introduction to new people are essential for his growth. While a fenced yard isn’t vital, leash walks and leashed potty breaks are necessary. His past may have been cautious, but now, with a loving family and a furry buddy, Lupo will learn there’s plenty of joy to be found — especially when there’s water involved! Lupo is currently in Millersville, MD, and ready to find his forever home. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
