Pit Bull Terrier / Siberian Husky / Mixed (Medium Coat)

Description:

Meet Griffey!-4 year old male German Pitsky (German Shepherd x Pitbull x Husky!)-Crate trained and house trained in his previous home-Knows a lot of cues such as “sit”, “stay”, “down”, “outside”, “crate”, “wait”, “eat”, “no bark”, “load up”, “heel”, “easy” and “place”. If you are looking for a smart cookie to do positive reinforcement based training with – Griffey is your guy!-Has history of being around cats and was curious with them-Walks well on leash-Has been a good canine citizen with other dogs out in the world and here at the shelter.A dedicated volunteer took Griffey on a trip around town and reports: `He's clearly experienced in the car, and likes to sit with his head out. I've taken him to fairly busy places, yesterday was Seacliff/Rio Del Mar and today was East Cliff/Moran Beach & he was a total rockstar. No issues at all. He has been pretty good and nonschalant about walking past other dogs. He is insanely smart and is very esaily redirected if you call his name.`Now through December 17th, BISSELL Pet Foundations is sponsoring reduced adoption fees and we are participating! Adoption fees for all cats and dogs are reduced to $50. Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
