male, large, senior
DESCRIPTION
Meet Mousey, this almost seniorish boy is around 7 years old. He was relinquished to a high kill shelter in Downy by his owner who could no longer care for him. Mouse is around 90 lbs and is nothing but a lover boy. He seeks affection from anyone who will give it to him. He doesn't quite understand his size and would be best suited for a home with older kids (12 and up). Mouse was scheduled to be euthanized for space.
Luckily with the amazing help of the community he was transported and found a safe foster in San Diego. He has all the quirky attributes of a husky and malamute. He's strong and is working on his leash skills. He's active and curious.
Mousey loves to play with his ball and other toys. He is very vocal and loves to demand attention from his humans. He'd do best with canine friends who love to play and a yard to romp around in.
