If you see pets listed by a private owner, it means that they’re adoptable through Adopt a Pet’s Rehome program – the safe and reliable way to find a loving new home for your pet.
We’re are working on an urgent placement for our senior neutered male Husky, Tony. We are located in West Hempstead, NY.
Tony was surrendered to a local shelter in June by his original family due to housing restrictions and was adopted by us shortly after. We are first-time dog owners and believed that adopting a senior dog would be a gentle way to learn. Unfortunately, after five months, it has become clear that our home is not the right environment for Tony.
Our primary concern is safety. Our younger son is autistic, and despite close supervision and working with a trainer, there have been a couple of snapping incidents when Tony’s need for space wasn’t recognized. As a result, our son has become fearful, and it has become clear that our home is not a safe or sustainable placement for Tony.
Tony would do best with an experienced, husky-savvy adopter who understands him and his nature.
