Nannook is a GSD cross Husky. This lad was owned by his mum’s partner who left him when he left the home. He had him from a pup but failed to ever take him to the vets. However, he came in to us in good condition. He also failed to bother socialising Nannook who consequently is very selective about which dogs he will get along with. A no to cats!
This handsome lad is typical of his breeding, and is a dominant male and very protective of his territory. Our volunteer ensured he was muzzled when first meeting him inside. He came and had a good sniff then turned and started growling at her. She took hold of him by the collar and told him firmly no and although not happy, he did calm down. Unfortunately mum and her partner had no experience of this type of behaviour so Nannook did rule the roost to a point. He has never bitten however.
Nannook walks well in a halti but will eat through leads if given the chance. He does have recall and basic commands but is toy and food possessive. He has loads of energy, typical of the Husky, but is slowing down as he gets older. He loves water!
Nannook is living in our kennels in Cornwall and due to his guarding issues Nannook will be staying in our care. He loves his people at the kennels and his walks up the woods.
Nannook, more fondly known as Luke, has passed over Rainbow Bridge peacefully.
