Meet Hatchi!
Hatchi is a soulful young adult Akita/Siberian Husky mix with a majestic tricolor coat and a loyal, tender heart. He's a 90-pound oversized teddy bear who's still adjusting to life with only one working eye due to stabilized glaucoma. Though he may see shadows, sudden movements can startle him, especially during walks. He thrives with a confident, experienced caregiver who can help him feel grounded and secure. Hatchi is strong on leash and reactive to dogs, cats, bikes, and cars that pass by, so he needs someone comfortable working with large breeds and understanding the power of positive reinforcement and patient training.
Despite his reactivity, Hatchi is a sweet, snuggly companion at heart. He melts into affection and is eager to please, especially when treats are involved! This intelligent boy responds to his name, is crate trained, house-trained, and has lived harmoniously with young children aged 7 and 8. He may do well with a calm, female dog companion but would not be compatible with cats. Hatchi is vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped, and he’s ready to embark on a new chapter filled with love, structure, and confidence-building. His sensitive nature means he looks to his human for reassurance, and with the right support, he has the potential to blossom into a truly remarkable companion! Whether you’re curled up on the couch or working on training together in the yard, Hatchi will be right by your side, ready to soak up your affection and offer his loyalty in return.
