This pet was adopted on Feb. 21, 2016! Thank you!

Our #PetOfTheWeek Buster is a five-year-old old male Alaskan Malamute mix.

Although he weighs about 60 pounds now, Buster is on the thin side and will likely put on a lot more weight. This sweet guy is good on a leash and loves going for walks. He knows how to sit, lie down, and speak on command.

Buster simply adores having his chest and back scratched… and loves being brushed! However, he doesn’t like to share his food and can be protective of it. Because of this, he would do best in a home without kids and would need to meet any other dogs in your home before being adopted.

Buster can be noisy when he wants attention and when he hears people, but is generally very quiet when he’s with his humans.

If you’re looking for a loving guy, then Buster could be the one for you! You can find out more about Buster on our website, www.kingcounty.gov/AdoptAPet.

You can also meet Buster, and any of his friends available for adoption seven days a week at the King County Pet Adoption Center in Kent, 21615 64th Ave. S. or at our Eastside Pet Adoption Center, 12040 NE 85th St. in Kirkland, inside Petco.
