My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You may recognize this handsome fella from his spread in People Magazine back in April of 2013. Poncho is a 9 year old, Alaskan husky that is looking for a furrever home to call his own. Poncho is an easy going dog that gets along with everyone. He would be happy to cuddle with you on the couch or go on an outdoor adventure. This relaxed guy doesn't have a schedule and is happy to go with the flow.

If you think Poncho sounds amazing and you wish you could have two of him, don't worry he has a brother Gonzo who we want to home with him.

Our adoption fee is normally $250 and includes: a health certificate, proof of clear fecal test, microchip, updated bordetella, DHLPP and rabies vaccines, spay/neuter surgery if necessary, Ruffwear harness and TAGG pet tracking device (for first three months). For the two boys, we are offering a reduced adoption fee of $350 total.

Things To Consider Before You Adopt

Our adoptable sled dogs range in age from 3 - 14. We very rarely have puppies/youngsters available adoption.

Our adoptable sled dogs are: Alaskan Huskies, Siberian Huskies, Malamutes and/or mixes of all of the above.

Our adoptable sleds dog are used to living in an outdoor, working environment. This means that they will need to be house trained and exposed to house stimulus like stairs, cars, vacuums, wood floors etc. Adopting an adult sled dog is similar to welcoming a puppy.

Our adoptable sled dogs range from medium to high energy. In general they require multiple walks daily and engaging toys when inside the home. A bored/under exercised sled dog is a destructive and anxious sled dog!

Our adoptable sled dogs are trained to run and are therefore a high flight risk. We do require that they be on leash or within a fenced in yard at all times until proper recall training has been received.

Our adoptable sled dogs have befriended many kitties in their new homes, that being said adopters are instructed to monitor all interactions with small animals as our four-leggers have limited exposure to them while with us and there is no telling how they may react.
