📍 Available for Adoption at Oakland Animal Services | 6 Years Old | 63 lbs | Husky/Shepherd Mix
Meet Bootsy, a mellow, soulful Husky/Shepherd mix with the fluffiest ears in town and a heart full of quiet love. At 6 years old and 63 pounds, Bootsy is a gentle boy who’s not in a rush—he prefers slow strolls, cozy naps, and quiet companionship with kind-hearted humans.
Bootsy was diagnosed with ataxia and hip dysplasia, which affect his movement slightly, but he navigates the world just fine—especially if it includes soft beds, gentle walks, and snacks. He’s also currently underweight and would love a home where he can be spoiled with care, calories, and affection.
🧡 Bootsy’s Personality
- Low-energy, calm, and easygoing
- Enjoys “sniffari” walks at a gentle pace
- Loves cozy corners, soft beds, and simply being near his person
- Sweet and polite in playgroups—prefers quiet interactions over rowdy play
- Would thrive as a solo dog or with a mellow, respectful canine companion
🏡 Ideal Home for Bootsy
- A calm, loving home that values companionship over chaos
- Someone who appreciates a gentle soul who just wants to be close
- Willing to support his joint and mobility needs with care, patience, and comfort
