A mostly brown and white dog sitting on a boat with the river, trees, and bright blue skies behind him. Mostly husky features with hints of lab.

That’s an interesting mix. What’s his temperament like?

He's got energy for days but is extremely cautious. He's loud when he wants you to hear, but he doesn't howl or bark for no reason. Great around kids (he knows), but due to him being attacked by a German Shepard when he was younger, he's wary of hyper dogs. If you're dog is chill, he's chill. Before his attack, he was one of the most friendly bois you'd every meet.

As he gets older he's settling into his faithful companion era. He doesn't like to leave our side, he's stoic, and likes the routine of 4 walks a day 😝. His favorite activity is to lounge in the front yard and just watch everyone drive/walk by. We have a fairly active neighborhood so he has a lot to watch.

Also surprisingly, doesn't over eat. From 8 weeks old we've always allowed him full access to his food. Some lab owners cant do this because they eat themselves silly, but he's more interested in whatever we're cooking up for dinner.

Wow, sounds like you got the best of each breed. Handsome boy too!
