My story

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

Meet Maverick! Maverick is a husky mix who is looking for his loving forever home. Maverick was abused by his previous owners, who dumped him at a kill shelter before he was pulled by Husky House. Understandably, he has difficulty trusting people in some situations and can resource guard his kennel as well as his food. You would, too, if you never knew when your next meal was coming and had never had a comfy place of your own to sleep! However, he is very friendly outside of his kennel and is super excited to meet new people in the yard or on walks. His ideal family needs to go slow and be patient, while building trust. As Maverick gets to know and trust volunteers who spend time with him, he lets down his guard and realizes he doesn’t have to protect himself - he even lets one of his favorite volunteers sit with him in his kennel and pet him while he’s eating meals! Maverick also loves playing with dogs his size, although he is easily excited and may need some redirection, especially when playing with female dogs. Interested in making Maverick a part of your life? Please visit www. huskyhouse.org today to fill out an application.

Additional adoption info

Our goal is to place our homeless rescues in permanent loving homes as they have already been abandoned once before by their former owners. We strive to place the appropriate dog in the appropriate home. Our application helps us to learn more about you, your home and your level of experience (if any) with this breed.

Once an application has been submitted, we ask that you please be patient. Husky House is run by volunteers that will try our best to get back to you in a timely manner. Please allow us several days to get back to you. We greatly appreciate your patience. Also please note, completion of this application does not guarantee an adoption.

1. Minimum age for adopter is 23 years old.
2. You must reside within a one hour drive from either NYC or Matawan, NJ. We DO NOT do long distance adoptions because we do home visits prior to the pup going to its new home.
3. We do not adopt out Siberian puppies (under 1 year of age) unless you have prior Siberian experience.
4. We DO NOT place in homes that rely on invisible/electric fence as the sole means of containment.
5. We must meet all household members either during the home visit or the meeting/adoption.
