Meet Yankee.. He is 2 years 10 months old, A Bull Terrier/ Husky mix. What a cute combo!
As far as we know he came up to the city from Fresno with his family who live out of couple of campers. I had been feeding him and his brother for about 6 months when the Mother asked me to take him as she was allergic to him and unable to keep him under control. He was severely dehydrated and desperately drinking from oily and polluted puddles when they handed him to me, With a metal chain tightly choking his neck , This is how they kept him as he would chew through any thing else to escape and run free doing whatever he wanted.
He is extremely smart and learned so much so quickly. He is learning to be a gentleman on leash and a social butterfly at the dog park, Where he loves to meet and greet other dogs and show off his speed and agility. His obedience training has made it possible for him to transform from a wild street boy to a fairly well behaved , affectionate companion He is great with kids and loves people and other dogs, He needs somewhere to run and socialize and someone to put a little effort into tiring him out.
He will need an active home!
Please email adopt@rocketdogrescue.org to meet him!
