My story

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

Meet Jack & Sylphrena!

Jack is a loving and playful boy who is shy when you first meet him, but blossoms into a loveable goofy boy once he is comfortable, and to help with that he must be adopted with his foster mate - Sylphrena, whom he is bonded to. You see, Jack was being fostered with Sylphrena since June and was finally adopted in December through the local shelter. He needed to be carried to the car, upset to leave Sylphrena behind, and when he got to his new home, he immediately escaped before they could bring him in the home. He was searching for his friend and ran into the nearby woods.

When his long term fosters were told, they immediately grabbed Sylphrena and flashlights as the sun was already started to set and went looking for him. They searched for hours into the night, then returned again the very next morning to continue. It wasn't long before Jack saw his bestie and came running to them, and we vowed to never separate them again. It will be one adoption fee for both of them.

Meet Sylphrena! ï¸

Sylphrena, the energetic whirlwind of joy is a Husky mix with a little bit of everything—a dash of pitbull, a sprinkle of mini schnauzer, and a whole lot of supermutt charm. She’s quirky, clever, and always ready for the next adventure.

Both are crate trained (Jack LOVES his crate and will need one in his new home to give him a safe space), mostly potty trained (can't be left alone just yet), well mannered, and very sweet. Jack is a little nervous around larger males (previously attacked) but not aggressive. They currently stay with cats and are okay, but do like to chase some of them so may be best with no kitties but not a deal breaker for them.
