About Calvin

Calvin was saved just hours before he was set to be euthanized, having spent over a year in a shelter. Now he’s ready to find a foster home where he can decompress and learn what it’s like to be a dog. At 2 years and 9 months old, this Pittie/Husky mix weighs 44 lbs and is already neutered. Initially a bit skittish, Calvin warms up quickly once he feels safe, often bowing his head to ask for ear scratches. He adores other dogs and would truly thrive in a home with a furry companion to play with. Smart and food-motivated, he responds well to commands like “no” and walks beautifully on a leash, especially enjoying his strolls. Calvin has some crate issues, so he needs someone willing to help him through proper crate training. A patient adopter who can give him the time he needs will help this sweet and goofy boy discover all the joys of being a dog. Are you ready to provide Calvin with a loving home? He’s waiting for someone like you!
