About Solovino

Meet Solovino, which means "he came alone" in Spanish. This 1.5-year-old, 50-pound Husky has spent most of his life outdoors and isn’t quite sure about the ins and outs of indoor living yet. He needs a home with a fenced backyard where he can relax and get accustomed to his new environment gradually. He's still figuring out the difference between dog toys and everything else, but he is potty trained and knows how to ask to go out. Solovino’s gentle nature shines through; he loves being around other dogs and shows affection in his own quirky way, like rubbing against them as though he’s a furry cat. While he is great with children and enjoys car rides, he does need time and gentle introductions to get comfortable with new people. He won’t do well in a home with cats, and it’s essential for his humans to have a sense of humor since he finds a lot to chew on while he learns. Solovino is neutered, vaccinated, and ready to find his forever home, preferably with someone patient who understands that his learning journey might take time. He has so much love to give once he feels secure, and he’s looking forward to experiencing indoor comforts like cozy beds and being part of a family. Ready to welcome a silly floof into your life?
