"Pickles is doing great.  Now one year old.  He is a neutered Husky/Shephard mix (mostly Husky), according to the vet.  He loves to play to get all his energy out, so a fenced-in yard is best for him, but he is currently trained on an electric fence.   He has a girlfriend and just loves all other dogs he meets.  He has never been with cats so do not know how he will react.  Pickles has been receiving training and hopes someone will continue it.  He’s great with all people of all ages and children.  The kennel where he goes to daily where he loves to play, the woman said he’s a fabulous dog.  Just has lots of energy and needs a companion.  However, he is very strong.  His problem is getting out of cars as something had to have happened to him in the past.  Could be he was dropped off at several locations when he was a puppy  Pickles needs a playmate to keep him busy and help him run all day.  He does run on his own, but he tends to get bored quickly.  He’s very smart and always wants to please.  If you or anyone you know is interested in this sweet, loving puppy, please contact me.  My sister is walking with a cane and he’s too much for her to handle on her own.  She needs a therapy dog who is older."

Here is the information from his family:"Loves people of all ages and wants to be with you and play. He loves other dogs but not sure about cats so I say no cats. He is about 1 year old now. According to the vet, he’s a Mix. He’s Husky/Stafford Pit and perhaps Shepherd. Short hair dog. He would be great with other dogs so he can play. Knows "Sit" and "Paw." Needs room to run around. The only reason my sister needs to find him a home is because he jumps. My sister is on a cane and not sturdy. She has fallen and can no longer take chances that she will get hurt badly. He may need some training in that area. He does know some commands. He has been in a kennel but not in crate. He has gone to someone’s house who house sits about 6 dogs or so at a time. He loved it and the woman had no issues with him. He played all the time with the other dogs and even her two great Danes. I would say he’s high-energy type. He has a fear of cars, getting into a car, because he was dumped a few times by previous owner who did not take the time to be with him and dumped him on his ex who then did not want him either."
