Pharoah -- This poor fellow was confiscated by the county dog warden along with a dozen other Alaskan Huskies (and Siberian Huskies) from an owner who had them all chained out with no food or water. They were all emaciated, just walking skeletons, and many were ill. We pulled this lucky fellow from the overcrowded pound, and he is making a great recovery. He is doing well in his foster home, now very active and playful. Pharaoh (his brother was Phoenix) romps and wrestles with the other dogs, loves to run, loves to wiggles up to his foster mom and dad to be petted on the couch while watching TV. He is very submissive and gentle, about 2 years old. He is making good progress on housetraining and walks nicely on a leash. He weighs about 45-50 lbs and is 22 inches tall. He is an "Alaskan Husky" which is a breed developed for sled dog races, a result of crossing Greyhounds with Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, and similar breeds. ***We do not have any cats, but most Huskies will chase cats. *** As for all our dog adoptions, we require a securely fenced yard for the safety of the dog.
Pharoah is not in the Closer to Home Animal Advocates rescue program. This is a courtesy listing and you should inquire about him by contacting Velma via e-mail at
