Howdy! My name is Astro and I am a big and funny boy eagerly waiting for a home of my very own! I am a striking young fellow! I appear to be a husky/german shepherd blend, and have personality traits of both breeds. I am approx 1-1.5 years old. I have a very thick and shiny coat, and predominantly GSD coloring. My facial mask gives away the "husky" part of my lineage, as does my very square shape. I am a very strong and solid dog, and have the tall size of the gsd. I also have the well known husky characteristic of a white tipped tail! (Makes me easy to spot in a crowd!)

I was picked up as a stray, so there is not much known about my past. That doesn't matter now, all that counts is the future!

I am a sweet and goofy boy. I am very smart like most german shepherds. I am housebroken and crate trained. I do know how to sit for treats, and am also very food motivated. I am sweet and affectionate, and like to lean into my people. I am a young boy, so I have a LOT of energy. I also have the husky bounce....when I get excited I tend to jump straight up and leap and bound around as opposed to a regular run. Don't get me wrong, I can also run like the wind when I want to! I can get easily excited and hyper, but will ramp myself back down with a verbal correction. I am a funny boy, with a lot of enthusiasm. I am very eager to engage with my people.

I do well with female dogs. (I have not yet been tested with male dogs). I love to play chase and race around the yard with a canine friend. I am a bit intense when meeting new dogs, and need proper introductions as well as a dog that doesn't mind a bump and run kind of play style...I like to run very close to my playmates and shoulder bump.

I do have considerable prey drive (a feature of both lines of my ancestry). I promise to keep your yard free of squirrels, chipmunks, and other smaller critters. I will probably require a home with no cats or small dogs. I am a very agile boy, and have demonstrated my athleticism. I need a yard with a 6' fence.

So, what do you think?? Are you ready for Astro the party started to join your family. Are you looking for a running buddy?? If so, come and meet me soon!!
