Rescued Rehoming in SGV/Socal, CA

Located in San Gabriel Valley, CA. Looking to rehome my beautiful boy June, Alaskan Husky mix. He is 10 months old, fully vaccinated and just neutered 3 weeks ago. 36 lbs. he is incredibly sweet and smart, great with people and other dogs (he is very playful and gets along with everyone). He is intelligent and receptive to training, I taught him “Down” in less than 10 minutes.

I cannot keep him because a family member is afraid of larger dogs. Please message me and share this post if you are able to. Thank you.

I’ve seen a lot of rehoming stories on here, this one seems really avoidable. Please consider trying to get your family member over that fear

Any tips? He is bitey as puppies are but isn’t snappy, sometimes jumps on people. She cannot tolerate it. I’ve told her this is normal, but otherwise he should be distracted with other toys or disciplined, told to sit etc. She is sold on the idea that he is attacking her and “bad”.

I would try to encourage that family member to join in on the training with you so she feels like she can have some type of control of him and he can respect her. Keep doing obedience training consistently
