Are you looking for a furry friend who is not only smart but also incredibly active? Look no further because Oden, the Alaskan Husky German Shepherd mix, is searching for his forever home right here in Fairbanks. This incredible canine has traveled all the way from Asgard and is ready to find a loving family to call his own.
Britley Calkins, an animal handler with the Fairbanks North Star Borough Animal Shelter, describes Oden as a true VIP (Very Important Pet). At just a year and a half old, Oden is full of energy and intelligence. He was surrendered to the shelter along with his buddy Maggie and is now eagerly awaiting a new chapter in his life.
Oden had a brief stint with an adoptive family but was unfortunately returned due to allergies. However, this sweet and affectionate dog bears no fault in the matter. According to reports, Oden gets along wonderfully with people of all ages, including babies and children. He also does well with other dogs, although he has a history of chasing cats. Therefore, it is important that Oden finds a home without any feline companions. While there is no information available regarding his interactions with pocket pets or livestock, it is recommended that any introductions be done in a slow, safe, and controlled environment.
One of Oden's outstanding qualities is his housebroken nature. He knows how to communicate when he needs to go outside by going to the door and whining. Additionally, Oden is kennel trained, making him a well-behaved and adaptable companion. The shelter staff has fallen head over heels for this delightful canine, but their ultimate wish is for Oden to find his forever home. As a mix of two highly intelligent and active breeds, Oden thrives on mental and physical stimulation, as well as consistent training.
If you are interested in meeting Oden and potentially becoming his new family, please reach out to the shelter. Keep in mind that there are plenty of other dogs, cats, and pocket pets available for adoption as well. Visit HowPetCare for more information on pet care and to explore other valuable resources.
