Kazoo - Husky and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Sparta, Wisconsin

Meet Kazoo! Kazoo is approximately 11 months old and is thought to be a Husky/Shepherd-type mix.


Kazoo is a very sweet and special boy who will be looking for an owner just as special. He came in with his sister, and would absolutely prefer a home with a kind dog. The shelter environment can get a bit scary for him with all of the noise, hustle and bustle, so his new family should be patient and understanding if he seems overwhelmed. He's a very sensitive boy and seems to be most comfortable when another dog is around who can help break him out of his shell.


Once he feels comfortable, Kazoo is incredibly affectionate! He will gravitate to you for kisses and pets, and will pile up all of his toys. For a young dog, Kazoo is actually a pretty chill boy outside of his play time, and would probably thrive in a situation where the household is calm and peaceful, but his owners can get him out for daily walks, hiking, sniffies, back yard play, etc.


We're not sure what Kazoo's life was like prior to being found, so we're unsure of any prior training. Kazoo may need guidance on things like commands, potty routines, and walking on leash, but he's incredibly smart and wants to please, so this should be no trouble at all with the right family. He will likely benefit from having a crate or a room that he can use as his calm/relax spot any time he needs it. So far, he's incredibly quiet and may even make a good apartment pup!


Kazoo should do well around children with proper supervision, but because he can get easily spooked, he may prefer the company of older children who can be respectful of his emotions.


Kazoo may be a big baby simply overwhelmed by the shelter environment, but we know he's going to be the BEST boy for almost any loving and patient family!
