Dick is a very sweet 2 year old husky. He is super friendly and inquisitive. He loves being a sled dog, but in the excitement of mushing he has seizures. They usually pass quickly, but he can’t be a working dog. Dick would love to be a pet. He is housebroken and loves people. He could possibly be a skijor dog and often times seizures can go away as they get older, or they can get worse. But there is treatment out there!! I had a dog that had seizures every day until we got them under control. He was only a year old at the time and lived to be over 10 years old before he died of cancer. Once he was treated he only had 1 or 2 seizures a year. I continued to skijor with him and he was one of my best lead dogs. So, seizures aren’t a death sentence! They just need to be managed. His owners love him, but can’t take the chance of him having a seizure on the trail. Let me know if you would like to meet Dick.
