Story

Barrett (A138022) is a 1-year-old mixed breed dog who weighed nearly 40 lbs at intake!01/10/26 This handsome guy is Barrett! Barrett arrived at the shelter as a stray and was subsequently surrendered. We do not know much information about Barrett's past. While at the shelter, he has been eager to greet all members of the care staff. He has also seemed eager to see his canine neighbors. Please make sure any and all introductions with other animals are done in a slow and controlled manner. Barrett has tried hard to keep his kennel clean while at the shelter, but he has had some accidents here so he may need some reminders on potty training. Barrett arrived at the shelter after being loose for over a week and very frightened. His next home should keep this in mind and make sure to keep Barrett supervised or secured when outside. If you are interested in meeting Mister Barrett, please give us a call!January 17, 2026, 9:11 pm

Details

Story

Alvin (A140858) is a nearly 5-month-old Coonhound x Beagle mix available for adoption! 01/15/26 These little characters are the chipmunks â&#194&#128&#194&#147 Alvin, Simon, and Theodore! They take their hound business very seriously and have shown off their howl since arriving at the shelter. They were part of an accidental litter that were born to a hunting dog and are eagerly awaiting their new homes! If you are unfamiliar with their breed mix, we encourage you to do the research prior to adopting. As they age, they are looking for a home that can keep them both mentally and physically stimulated. They would most likely love doing scent training! In typical puppy fashion they are going to need help with potty training, kennel training, basic commands, and continued positive socialization. Puppies are a lot of work and a big responsibility. If you are interested in meeting any one of this trio, please let us know! January 17, 2026, 9:11 pm

LITTLE BOY BOO

American Bulldog/Husky

Male, Senior

Fairbanks, AK

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Little Boy Boo (A117759) is a 9-year-old American Bulldog x Husky mix who weighed 89.3 pounds on intake! 01/15/26 This polite pup is Little Boy Boo! Little Boy arrived at the shelter as a stray and is now looking for his new place to call home. Little Boy has a history of being a wanderer and is looking for a home that can keep him safely contained. He should be on a leash, secure tie-out, or supervised when in a fenced-in yard. We have found that Little Boy pulls a bit on leash walks but otherwise is quite the sweet boy. He may do better walking in a harness! He has done an excellent job at keeping his kennel clean, indicating that he may already be housebroken. Keep in mind that he may need some reminders as he settles into his new home and routine. We do not know if he has experience with children or other animals. Please ensure you are making appropriate introductions with new people and animals to help set him up for success. If you are interested in meeting Little Boy Boo, please let us know! January 17, 2026, 6:15 pm

GRIZZLY

Pit Bull Terrier/Husky

Male, Young

Fairbanks, AK

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Grizzly (A139367) is a 1-year-old Pitbull x Husky mix who weighed 55 pounds on intake! 01/15/26 This handsome boy is Grizzly! Grizzly was originally rehomed due to his owner moving. The family to whom he was rehomed quickly realized he was not the right fit for them. Grizzly was said to be jealous of the other dogs in the home and did not get along with the senior dog. Since they had had that dog since it was a puppy, they did not find it fair to him to keep Grizzly. Grizzly was only in their care for less than 24 hours and was said to have previously gotten along well with other dogs. It is very important that slow, safe, and controlled introductions are made. We also encourage his next owner to look into the Rule of 3 when bringing a new pet home. Grizzly is a little underweight and it would be wise to initially feed him separately from other pets to help set him up for success. Grizzly was said to have only growled at the other dogs and made no attempt to nip or snap. However, it was noted that he would chase cats and should go to a home without feline friends. Grizzly was said to do wonderfully with the children in the home and great with adults! He was described as an outgoing, friendly, and affectionate dog! They also said that he was housebroken and rides well in a vehicle! Grizzly would benefit from attending a basic obedience class with a certified trainer to continue working on his manners and build his confidence. If you are interested in meeting Grizzly, please let us know! January 17, 2026, 6:15 pm
