Jett - Husky and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Watertown, Wisconsin

Jett is a 10 year old Husky/Shepherd mix who came to us as an owner surrender due to housing issues. Don't let his age fool you, he is more than happy to go on a long walk and then when you're done he'll cuddle up on the couch with you. He is good with other dogs and has been around children 7+ but has never been with cats before. He is new here but he is quickly becoming a volunteer favorite due to his sweet and gentle demeanor and he is the perfect size only weighing around 45 pounds.
