My story

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

This sweet young boy was one of the last dogs taken from the Navajo County hoarding property that had 47 dogs in one place over the summer. He is very sweet and friendly with humans, loves to give kisses, and just wants someone to give him a chance.

Rex has been through a lot in his short life. He was born up in Holbrook so far off the beaten path you have to drive over an hour down a dirt road to get there. He was one of the last dogs removed from the property and was taken to the Holbrook animal shelter where he spent a week before we found him a foster. This foster had a young child and Rex did ok at first, though was pretty withdrawn and overwhelmed at his new environment. He is a sweet boy who doesn't want to hurt anyone, but having no prior exposure to kids, we think it's best he go to a home without small kids in the future. The foster did not have very much experience with dogs in general and was not comfortable with a dog that needed as much time to adjust as he did. 

Rex is doing so much better now than when he first came down, though he has been in boarding for 3 months! He jumps for joy when someone lets him out to play and loves to give kisses and be pet. Many of his initial inhibitions are gone. He has shown us what a friendly guy he can be. He will still have an adjustment period in a new home, but we are hopeful it will be minimal compared to what he has gone through. 

As much as we would like to find him an adopter, we would love even more just to get him out of boarding - a foster would be huge for this guy. Please apply if you can help!

Additional adoption info

We ensure that our huskies only go to families on a property with a 6ft secure fence, and remain the guardian of the animal for life - if there is ever need for a family to rehome their husky again due to health or any other major concern, we are always willing to take the dog back and find them a new home.

We do not have a physical shelter location just yet, and operate solely out of foster homes. We are planning to begin participating in adoption events in the near future - these will be listed on our website once available!

More about this rescue

We are a non-profit organization located in the Phoenix valley that specializes in the adoption and placement of Siberian Huskies. We accept owner surrenders and strays, and treat dogs with specialized medical needs, or those that have just become homeless, preparing them for adoption into a permanent home! All dogs are made current on vaccinations, microchipped, spayed and neutered before being placed.
