Meet Forrest, an eight-month-old Alaskan Malamute/German Shepherd mix weighing 70 pounds.

Forrest is a big, sweet, dorky boy who is just starting to discover what life is all about. He came to us after being seized by Animal Control along with six other dogs, and it's clear that everything outside of his previous indoor world is brand new and a little overwhelming for him right now.

Despite his uncertainty, Forrest has a very gentle, loving nature. He is still very much a baby at heart-big in size, but soft and unsure in spirit. He soaks up attention when he feels safe and finds comfort in kind voices, calm handling, and patient companionship.

New situations can be scary for Forrest, and he is still learning about the leash, which can feel confusing to him. He will need a patient, understanding adopter who can go at his pace and help him build confidence step by step. Every small success will be a big milestone for this sensitive boy.

Forrest is looking for a calm, supportive home where he can learn that the world is not such a scary place. With time, reassurance, and gentle guidance, he has all the potential to grow into a deeply loyal and loving companion.

If you have the heart to help a nervous boy find his footing, Forrest is ready to learn the way with you.
