My story

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

Meet Shelby 🐾

If you've ever thought, "I wish my best friend had more opinions," Shelby is your girl.

This playful, energetic Husky queen is fully up to date on all neighbourhood happenings. Squirrel three fences down? Noted. Delivery truck arriving early? Reported. Leaf blowing suspiciously across the yard? Investigated. She runs a tight ship.

Shelby is an outdoorsy legend 🌲 Whether it's hiking trails, beach strolls, snowy adventures, or "let's just wander and see what happens," she is IN. She's looking for an active human who enjoys doing the things - bonus points if you also narrate your hikes dramatically like she does.

Shelby Highlights:

🐾 Knows sit, down, shake a paw, and an absolutely charming sit pretty
🐕 Great with medium to large dog pals
🚫 No cats or livestock, thank you kindly
🚗 Loves car rides... but please keep the windows closed. Wind in her fur? Absolutely not. She has standards.
🍗 Foodie... but the picky, discerning, five-star-review kind

And can we talk about the cat-like affection? Shelby doesn't just lean in for pets - she rubs up against you like a 60-pound husky-shaped house cat. It's equal parts hilarious and heart-melting.

Now, fair warning: she is chatty. Like, husky chatty. She will tell you when she's hungry, when she'd like a walk, when the vibes are off, when the vibes are great, and possibly when Mercury is in retrograde. Communication is key in any healthy relationship, right? 😉

Shelby isn't looking for couch-potato energy (unless it's post-adventure recovery mode). She wants a human who says "Let's go!" and means it. Someone who appreciates personality, loyalty, and a little dramatic flair.

If you're ready for a playful, opinionated, outdoors-loving sidekick who will both hike mountains and supervise your snack choices - Shelby is waiting. 🖤
