My story

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

Sky (bonded with Luke) was returned to us due to no fault of his own. He is a very active boy who would do well in a active home and loves to be outside! His buddy Luke has lived with him for several years and they do a great job keeping each other active.
He and Luke would benefit from regular exercise and obedience training. That being said, they are both very smart and eager to learn. In their last home he lived with kids 12 + and we would recommend him being in a home that has kids that old or older. Sky won't do well in a home that has cats.
Sky is not a fan of being crated but with the proper exercise will sleep a lot as happy dogs do. Husky experience is preferred with this young fellow!

Sky also suffers from separation anxiety and will need a stay-at-home guardian to help him feel more confident.

More information on Sky from his previous experience with us:


Sky is a beautiful and comical Husky that came into our care through no fault of his own.
He recently spent some time in a foster home so we could see how he did in a non-shelter environment.
With a couple of good walks a day, he was content to lounge on his bed. He heels well once the initial energy is gone and the foster home indicated he was great with toys and treats. We can put you in touch with his former foster dad on training/walking techniques he used as he is dog savvy. Unfortunately, he had to be gone from home a lot currently and Sky wasn't keen on being in a crate as he wants to be with people or out enjoying the weather.

He had a slow introduction to an older laid back dog in the home and did well they walked together a lot. He also met the neighbour's dogs through the fence and showed great play body language. If you have another dog a meet and greet is mandatory here at the shelter outside. No cats/small animals please as huskies can have a prey drive.

Sky has a lot of energy and is very true to his breed. He is confident, smart, active and goofy. Sky also suffers from separation anxiety and will need a stay-at-home guardian to help him feel more confident.

Sky has been with us a while, as we learned more about him and have been doing some basic training, he has pretty decent leash manners and loves to sit, shake a paw and get treats for being such a good boy! He is super smart and would enjoy a busy life with learning new things. The best home for him is one with a high, fully fenced yard, indoor/outdoor access to a yard and a true husky lover with a lot of experience.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require potential adopters to fill out an pre-adoption application. If that application is approved, the dog/cat must be spayed/neutered before it leaves our shelter (if not already done). If it is a puppy under 4 months old, we allow it to go home with the adopters under a foster care agreement until it is old enough to be returned for spay/neuter. Kittens are allowed to leave before spay/neuter is done, but they must be done within a certain time frame.
Fees: Dogs/puppies range from $150-300, depending on if they came in already spayed/neutered or if we paid to have that done.
Cats range from $80 - $140, though we often have deals on older cats or cats that have been there a long time.
Kittens are $60 with $25 refunded once it has been spayed/neutered.
All adoptions include at least the first vaccination, deworming, de-fleaing, microchip ID, and 6 weeks of pet insurance.
