Looking for someone in CA or west coast who’d be interested and able to take in a 6 month old male low content right away.
From his present owner:
We’re urgently seeking an experienced wolfdog or northern-breed handler (mandatory) who can provide the right home for Thor (originally named Cloak), a 6-month-old low-content wolfdog (Husky/Malamute/Shepherd mix).
Over the last few months, we’ve worked hard to integrate Thor into our family, but it’s become clear that he’ll thrive better in an environment that better matches his needs. This decision comes from a place of care for Thor’s long-term well-being and the safety of everyone involved.
About Thor
• Age: 6 months (born April 9, 2025)
• Breed: Low-content wolfdog (35–40% based on parent and sibling embark testing; mixed with Husky/Malamute/Shepherd)
• Handler: Must have prior experience with wolfdogs or northern-breed working dogs.
• Handler preference: Thor responds to a confident handler with positive reinforcement and will need continued training and structure.
• Living preference: Enjoys being indoors but also needs secure outdoor space/fenced yard to roam and decompress. Cannot be confined to one area; needs to roam. He will go in the crate on his terms, the only time he has it locked is during meal time to give him his space, but he is very vocal when it is time to come out and will attack the crate if he wants out.
• Companionship: Does best with another well-matched dog as a companion. He is currently living with two female huskies (ages 9 and 12), but he plays too rough for them and continues to injure them. For human companions, he is very skiddish when meeting new people, will not let you pick him up for hugs/cuddles. Reacts to quick movements, so he requires someone who is patient.
• Not suited for households with young children or small animals.
• Personality: Loves going for walks, bonds strongly with his dog companions, loves play time and is more accepting of sleepy snuggles in the mornings and evenings (but that’s the only time). He loves his toys and is very treat/food motivated. If repeatedly corrected by claps/snap of fingers, he pins his ears, snows teeth and nips.
• Socialization: We’ve introduced Thor to a variety of environments including car rides, racetrack events, restaurants, breweries, ranch, and more. He will need someone committed to continuing his socialization as he does not like meeting new people or dogs.
• Other notes: Thor gets car-sick on rides if he’s not lying down, so a patient adopter can help him continue to improve. He also needs a lot of patience when putting on his harness to go for a walk/drive, being introduced to new people and settings, and has been reactive (runs away, runs into a corner, tucks tail) to putting on or taking off the leash no matter how much we work with him. Once it’s on, he’ll go for a walk with his dog companions. Struggles on solo walks.
• Up-to-date on vaccinations and microchipped.
Thor will only be placed in a home that understands wolfdog or northern-breed behaviors, has secure fencing, and can provide consistent structure, training, and socialization.
📍 Located in San Diego, CA
If you or someone you know has the experience, resources, and the right environment to give Thor the stable, active, and loving home he deserves, please reach out to me directly.
(I will put interested party in touch with present owner)
