Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Electra (A142151) is a 1-year-old Lab x Pitbull mix who weighed 64.3 pounds on intake! 10/05/26 This beautiful girl is Electra! Electra was brought back to the shelter because she was a bit too much for the senior dog in the home. She was said to want constant playtime with the other dog in the home and was said to have a rough style of play. She was described as an outgoing and friendly dog. While in their care they also noted that she is kennel trained and knows the command sit. She was known to dig, chew, and have an abundance of energy. Electra did have an ear infection on arrival at the shelter and was seen and treated by the shelter vet. However, it is important that her next owner continues to watch her ears and follow up with care if they still seem to bother her. She is a young dog, looking for some continued guidance. She is a super sweet girl, and if you feel that she could be the one for you, please let us know! 08/13/26 This exuberant pup is Electra! Electra was surrendered to the shelter and is looking for her new home. She is a young girl with a lot of energy and looking for some stability and guidance in her life. She is a very sweet girl, but does not always understand her size. She was known to be a bit like a bowling ball when small children get in her path. However, she was said to be nice to kiddos, but will knock them down accidentally. She was also said to do well with strangers and adults, but will jump up. Electra was said to do well with other dogs, but did have one little scuffle when rotisserie chicken was involved. Please keep this in mind if you are feeding high-value food items. She was said to like to chase after the cat and play a bit too roughly. Most cats would probably not appreciate her enthusiasm. Electra is still working on her basic commands and potty training. She is looking for a patient owner who will continue working with her. Electra was said to ride well in a car and know the command sit (especially when treats are involved)! They did find that Electra can jump 4ft fences, but did not think she would be able to make it over a 5-foot fence. She should be supervised when in a fenced-in yard. If you are interested in meeting Electra, please let us know! October 14, 2026, 12:55 am

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Rico (A135528) is a 3-year-old AK Husky x Australian Cattle Dog mix who weighed 53.1 pounds on intake! 10/09/26 This good-looking pup is Rico! Rico arrived at the shelter as a stray and is now looking for his new place to call home! He has been a joy to be around and is always eager to greet the staff! Since he was a stray, we do not know his experience level with children or other animals. It is important that appropriate introductions are made to help set him up for success! We do not know the extent of his training, but he has done an excellent job of keeping his kennel accident-free while at the shelter! He is a young active dog looking for a home that can provide him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation! If you are interested in meeting Rico, please let us know! October 14, 2026, 12:55 am

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Two (A140929) is a 5-year-old AK Husky x Pointer mix who weighed 50.8 pounds on intake!Foster update: We have been fostering Four and his brother Two. They are sweet and wonderful dogs. Four is a VERY active dog accustomed to living outdoors on a tether with a house, as is typical for sled dogs. He enjoys being in a dog yard and being able to say hello to his neighbors and play with them. He is very friendly to humans and dogs alike and loves playtime in our free-run pen. He is more shy than his brother but has warmed up to us more and more. He loves to run and does well in harness - both him and his brother have great athletic builds and lots of potential as sled dogs. Four is always moving, which has made it hard to get a good photo of him! Four is also an eager eater and loves meal time. I have been introducing him to bikejoring and he picked it up quickly so there is lots of potential for him to be an awesome bikejor/skijor dog. I think Four would do best in a home where he can primarily remain outside on a tether with a proper house, as this is how he is most comfortable, while slowly being introduced to the indoors. I think he would also like a home with another dog(s) he can be buddies with. He should also not be trusted to be loose unless in a secure fenced area. Potential adopters should be familiar with sled dogs and be ready to provide active outlets and secure housing for him.01/22/26 These eager-to-go pups were surrendered to the shelter because their owner is facing some medical concerns and is unable to provide them with the lifestyle they need. They are working dogs and were said to be wonderful sled dogs! All these pups were stated to get along well with other dogs and are great pullers. They are accustomed to living out on a dog house but were said to have enjoyed coming inside during that super cold snap. However, they are not housebroken, and if you do plan on transitioning them to indoors, they will need help adjusting to indoor living âÂÂ potty training, kennel training, basic commands, etc. They know mushing commands but that is about it. They would love to join a rec team or even to become your adventure buddy if you live an active lifestyle âÂÂ skijoring, bikejoring, or even becoming your hiking buddy! Anything to keep them both mentally and physically stimulated so they stay out of trouble! If you are interested in meeting any of this crew or possibly the whole gang, please let us know!

Story

Luna Beverly (A143723) is a 4-year-old AK Husky mix who weighed 23.7 pounds on intake! 10/07/26 This little lady is Luna! Luna was surrendered to the shelter and looking for her new place to call home! She has found the shelter setting a bit overwhelming; but in a home setting was described as an outgoing, friendly, and affectionate dog. She has historically done well with people of all ages including babies and children; however, it is important to be observing interactions and making sure she does not become too overwhelmed. Luna was said to do well with other dogs, but should go to a home without cats. She was stated to be kennel trained, housebroken, and rides well in a vehicle.

Story

Molly (A143728) is a 4-month-old AK Husky who weighed 22 pounds on intake! 10/12/26 This little lady is Molly! Molly was surrendered to the shelter because she needed urgent medical care. She had a deep laceration on her leg and will need to come back to the shelter for suture removal on 10/23. During her healing process, it is important that she is kept to strict kennel and leash restrictions. Providing her with plenty of kennel enrichment toys is important for her mental health during this healing process (for example: kongs, lick mats, hard chew toys). Once medically cleared she will need continued help with potty training, basic commands, and continued positive socialization! She has been a very sweet girl and is looking for a home that can help her heal and grow into the best version of herself! If you are interested in meeting Molly, please let us know!
