Story
Bucky is incredibly friendly and super loving, but very hyper. He just turned 2. His best friend is a cat, and he gets along well with both cats and dogs (but he wants all the attention still). I had gotten him with my partner, but they are no longer around and it is just me. Bucky is unsupervised for almost 10hrs a day during the week, and it just feels like I cannot give him the attention he deserves. I would rather not give him up for adoption but fostering has not worked out. I would like to have someone experienced with huskys take him because I feel he is going to need a lot of attention and time to adjust. He and I are very bonded so I cannot imagine this will be easy on him. I am moving to Indiana for work this weekend and I just have come to the painful decision that he needs a better home and better pet owner. I would like to do a quick adoption and just get it over with (rip off the bandaid).
