Meet Skylar, she’s a beautiful, well, uh, Husky!  Husky you ask, on a German Shepherd website? Well we found her as a stray, scared to death but wanting to trust so badly. Since we already foster GSD’s we thought we could add a Husky to the mix, plus none of the local Husky rescues answered our pleas for help!  She’s a super sweet girl, a little shy with new people though as I think someone grabbed at her collar a few too many times.  She’s a Husky through and through, she loves to run, play, and especially talk. You heard me talk, in fact I should’ve named this girl Chatty Cathy because she talks ALL THE TIME! LOL She gets along with 7 other dogs, she’s house and crate trained although she’s not fond of the crate. She tried to chew her way out the first week or two but has now realized that mom doesn’t take no for an answer. She goes in when you tell her and even eats breakfast and dinner in her crate. She’s a serious couch potato and don’t even think of keeping her off the bed, she’s going to sleep with you whether you like it or not!
I do not know how she is with cats, most Huskies have a prey drive or at least like to chase, I can imagine Skylar isn’t much different. She’s maybe 7-8 months old and like other pups she loves to chew. I try and keep plenty of hooves around and she’s really good about just chewing those but sometimes those stuffed toys and dog beds are just too much to bear and she’ll try and de-stuff them. Keep an eye on her and keep valuables locked away and you’ll be fine. She’s a smart girl but like the average Husky doesn’t always like what you tell her making her a bit of a challenge to train. She’s scared on a leash and scared in the car but it’s honestly nothing exposure and experience won’t cure, she could use a good obedience class even if it’s just for socialization with people.
Skylar needs a home with someone that has previous Husky experience, Huskies aren’t the dog for everyone and can be very challenging at times. Also she needs a home with another dog, without cats and no children under the age of 8 years old. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, heartworm preventative, and microchipped.
If you are interested in Skylar please fill out our adoption application, the application and adoption fees are still required even though she’s a Husky.
