Steffie

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
Hello there! I’m Steffie, a gorgeous Husky mix with stunning bi-colored eyes and a heart full of love. Though I’m a senior, I prefer “experienced” — I still have plenty of energy for adventures like hiking and playing fetch. I’m housebroken, affectionate, and love car rides. I do best as the only dog or with a calm, friendly, female dog only. I’m a bit shy at first and cautious around strangers, especially men, but once I warm up, I’m a loyal, sweet companion who loves cuddles and kisses.

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:
I have some dog friends that I get along with and some that I’d like distance from! I’m a true “girl’s girl” and I do best with friendly female dogs. I have lived successfully with another dog in foster care in the past. Success with any dog will depend on a dog intro with me and my friends at FOHA!

HOW AM I WITH CATS:
Unknown.

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:
Unknown; older children 10 and up preferred/recommended.

I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS:
I have done 3 sessions of professional training. I know sit, down, and come.

MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:
Housebroken. I have crate training experience but I will need a family willing to continue working on it!

THINGS I LIKE:
Fetch, affection, food/treats, toys, and hiking.

THINGS I DISLIKE:
Loud noises and unknown people (especially men although I will warm up with time and patience).
