My personality

My story

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

Our lovely Nessie is an outgoing Beauty who loves everyone! She came to our Connecticut rescue recently after she was found as a stray in North Carolina. When her Owner did not claim her, Nessie made the trip North to start a new life.

Nessie appears to be a stunning mix of Doberman and Husky, with black and white coloring, a fluffy plume tail and soulful brown eyes. She is a medium sized dog, at a healthy weight of 50 pounds. Her coat is short and smooth, and she is easy to groom.

Nessie can be shy at first meeting, but warms quickly and becomes extremely affectionate. She relishes human touch, and willingly leans into her person for ear scratches. Nessie is not as frantically high energy as some Huskies that we have known, but as a one year old youngster, she does need a fair amount of exercise and mental stimulation.

Nessie is a smart girl and has already passed many of the Canine Good Citizenship tests. She is a breeze to train, and loves the work, so motivated adopters could easily take her the rest of the way to CGC certification. Obedience work will go a long way to keep her challenged, calm and balanced.

Nessie would thrive in an active adult household, or in a family with older kids keen to the needs of a rescue dog. Nessie would like to be in the forefront of the family, and invited to participate in family activities. She would be the ideal running or hiking companion. She is an excellent traveler and would love to join her folks on camping or road trips. She is not a dog to be relegated to the backyard, where boredom and frustration can set in, and create unpleasant consequences.

Nessie could easily join a multi-dog home. She enjoys play and is pretty sociable. We have not tested her with cats. She has good house manners and is house trained and crate trained. Adopters should expect to troubleshoot the occasional accident that will inevitably occur during her transition to a new home. She is in optimal health, and has been recently spayed, and has received routine vaccinations, deworming and health screenings.

Additional adoption info

When we receive your completed application we will check your references, including your veterinarian, and then call you to discuss your situation and requirements.. If you are approved for adoption, we can then discuss with you which of the dogs might fit best into your life. We will either arrange for you to visit the dog in its foster home, by appointment, or transport the dog to your home.

To help cover the veterinary expenses of our foster Eskies and to support our rescue effort, Eskies Online will charge you an adoption fee of $350.00. We do not sell dogs. We charge a flat fee--whether the Eskie is a puppy or an older dog; whether it came to us with minimal veterinary needs or requiring major medical care; whether the Eskie makes a short or a long stay in our foster system.
