About Golden

Meet Golden! 💛 After spending four months in a local shelter, this 6-year-old Husky mix came to Arctic Rescue for a chance to decompress, feel safe, and find a family of his own. Watching him come out of his shell has been a joy. Golden is a gentle, sensitive boy with a playful spirit that's starting to shine. He loves being part of the action and has plenty of energy for adventures. Ideal for an active family, he enjoys hiking, running, bikejoring, and other outdoor fun. He's dog-friendly, enjoying playtime with his furry friends. While he can get a bit overwhelmed by large groups or overly excited dogs, he's good at taking breaks when needed. Inside, Golden readily heads to his crate, which serves as his safe haven. He’s making progress with leash walking and would benefit from continued training. As he's learning to feel secure at mealtimes, his new family should continue feeding him in his crate to respect his space. Golden would shine in a home with older children who appreciate his playful nature while respecting his boundaries. He needs patient people to provide the structure, activity, and reassurance to help build his confidence. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
