My story

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

Hello future family! My name is Link! I'm a spirited and affectionate Husky ready to leap into your heart. I've traveled all the way from a California kill shelter to the beautiful state of Washington, seeking a second chance at life and love. The day I was supposed to be euthanized, my rescuers saved me just in the nick of time and now I'm eager to find my forever home. The shelter thinks I’m around 4 years old. I am medium size, weighing only around 49 lb and 30” tall.


I'm a playful bundle of joy who loves to run, play, and shower you with love nibbles and kisses. My past may be a mystery, but my personality is an open book filled with love and excitement. I'm known for my playful antics and can be a bit mouthy when I'm excited, so I'd love a home with an active furry sibling to match my energy. I can be an only dog too, if my human can setup play dates to meet my socializing needs.


I adore attention and can't wait to prance over to you for some well-deserved pets. I'm a social butterfly at the dog park, making friends with ease, and I'm quickly learning basic commands. Rest assured, I'm house trained and a well-behaved boy, quietly awaiting our afternoon walks.

Speaking of walks, did I mention I'm FAST? I love chasing after squirrels and feeling the wind in my fur as I sprint around the dog park. And oh, when I get the zoomies, I have this adorable quirk – I jump straight up into the air! It's so cute and unique, how many other dogs have you seen do that?

My ideal human would be someone active like me, ready to explore and embark on adventures together. Despite my energetic nature, I'm a happy-go-lucky dog who just wants to be part of a loving family. I promise to fill your days with laughter, joy, and endless affection. So, what do you say? Are you ready to welcome a sweet boy like me into your heart and home?

With wagging tails, hopeful eyes, and mid-air zoomies,

[IMPORTANT]
Below listed requirements are meant for everyone’s safety.

• If you have other dogs, then you must also be knowledgeable and have good hands on experience with running a multi-dog home to be able to adopt a dog from us. What's expected of the adopter is just keeping basic house rules like (1) keep the dogs apart when feeding, monitor & put away left over food, (2) help them build mutual trust before leaving alone with treats, toys around (3) keep dogs out of kitchen when handling food etc

• As with any dog, earn their trust around food handling. This is an essential training for every dog, so they learn to trust their new human. It takes only a couple of practice sessions around meal time with most dogs with no history of food guarding. Teaching to sit, then hand-feeding food & high value treats is one of the best ways to eat trust.

• If you have children at home, they should be at least 8+ yrs, and know to safely & respectfully interact with dogs, to be considered for adoption. We think families with younger children will likely not have the time needed to exercise and nourish a new dog. And the time needed to train little kids to safely interact with dogs, read their body language & respect their space.

• We discourage the use of choke, pinch, prong collars on our dogs. We do not believe this is the humane way to train dogs for obedience, when there are science based, positive reinforcement training methods available in 2023. Besides, huskies are genetically prone to glaucoma of the eyes, and the pressure on the neck will only hurt them more. Walking on a well fitted no-pull harness is encouraged.
