About Rusty

G'day everyone! Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rusty and that may have come about because of my beautiful red coat. Add on my piercing Icelandic blue eyes and you've got one handsome pup! Yes indeed, I'm a youngster with a fully charged battery ready to live my best life. I can be a little timid when I first meet you, but I warm up quickly. Right now I am learning the ropes in my foster home; everything is new and sometimes I get a little jumpy with new experiences and noises. My foster home has two other fosters and who knew how fun it could be playing with other dogs and going for walks. It has opened up a whole new world to me. I've settled in with my Foster Dad and have learned, most importantly, that people are my friends. Now, I can't wait for my Dad to wake up and get some lovin with a belly rub and when he says 'Gimme kiss' I know what to do and lick his face. Thanks to Dad & my trainer Brittni I have overcome one of my biggest fears, getting my harness on. A whole Lotta cool stuff has opened up to me and my prey drive has diminished, I'm even more approachable greeting people. I have never shown a single sign of aggressiveness or being mean to any dog I've met. No resource guarding over food, treats, toys or my humans. Since coming into rescue, I have really come out of my shell and discovered that being a dog is a whole lotta fun! Now that I'm around other dogs and people I'm thinking that's where it's at folks. I've relaxed into my daily routine and truth of the matter, sleeping in the house has become number one on my list. I enjoy my daily walks and I'm learning not to pull on the leash as well as trying to resist going after those tempting squirrels. But, practice makes perfect and every day I am learning how to slow down and smell the roses. My canine companions are teaching me a thing or two as well - they let me know when my play gets too enthusiastic. I've learned to just go take a time out and relax, or maybe throw my toy up in the air for a bit. I take cues from my foster siblings, so having another con��%BD��%BD%BD��%BD��%BD%BD%BD��%BD��%BD%BD��%BD��%BD%BD%BD%81dent canine around would sure help me out. When it comes to the kiddos, I will do ��%BD��%BD%BD��%BD��%BD%BD%BD��%BD��%BD%BD��%BD��%BD%BD%BD%81ne with older children who are respectful and allow for slow introductions. My foster family recently discovered that I love water! I like to WOO WOO to communicate with you. The fact is peeps, I'm a young husky and you know what that means. Yep, I will need an active home that is willing to keep me thoroughly exercised along with some mental stimulation thrown in. With consistency and patience, I will be on my way to being one fine husky pup. Also, I'm really smart and a quick learner. I know lots of commands and learning about recall. Long story short, and although I'm not looking to make a break as much, I'm an escape artist. I look forward to meeting WOOO. Love, Rusty email: [email protected]
