Story
Hi. My puppy Trae is about 4 mos old and a typical puppy.. full of vim and vigor... As one would say! She is Tri- colored and looks more like a little dachshund than a Chihuahua/Terrier mix. Her sister looks more Chihuahua.. Trae is very active and loves to play with her toys and chewers...and even more play with her sister ... She is very smart and I ve been teaching her words and a few commands but hard to do when sister is around.. she is potty trained on pee pads cause I havent let them out of house yet, cause it has been too cold outside to teach her. But she rarely has mistakes.. I do have to remind her.. she is a puppy. Her sister and her are in an open top caged area to sleep in ... similar to semi-crate. She doesnt have any mistakes in bed anymore. She can hold it for several hours. I have taught some words and simple commands .. she is eager to learn . Especially using a cookie; She is rowdy w sister but can settle down to hold and sit in lap calmly...

Story
Koda is a very friendly, happy, and goofy girl. My husband and I took her in from a neglect situation back in 2022. Unfortunately we have to rehome her due to job and housing changes. She is great with dogs of all sizes and cats and children of all ages. She is mostly husky with some german shepherd. She has basic training, is housetrained, leash trained, and up to date on her vaccines. She truly is a wonderful dog that deserves a great family and home. It is really important that she have a family that has the time and the space for her.

Story
This is Juneau and she has been my favorite dog I have ever had, but due to life circumstances changing I am no longer able to have her. I got her from a person that had an accidental litter and she just turned 4 years old. Juneau is extremely intelligent, funny, and active, but has started to calm down a little bit as she has gotten older. She should go to a home that has a spot for her to run around.

Margo is emotionally intuitive, easygoing, and responsive, making him a joy to be around. At home, he loves to cuddle, stay close to his people, and offer constant affection.

Story
Beautiful Siberian Husky Seeking a Loving, Active Home Zeus came to us as a puppy from a kind elderly gentleman who adored him but wasn’t able to keep up with his high energy. As first-time dog owners, we’ve learned a lot along the way, and with heavy hearts we’ve realized that Zeus deserves a home that can truly match his needs and adventurous spirit. Zeus is a purebred Siberian Husky with a wonderful personality and the classic, endearing “husky talk.” He is friendly, affectionate, and full of life. He loves to play and gets excited easily, showing the joyful enthusiasm typical of his breed. He is intelligent, curious, and always eager to explore the world around him. Like many Huskies, Zeus has a strong sense of adventure and needs secure space and consistent exercise. We live near a hospital, and his curiosity has led him to wander beyond our property a few times, which made us realize he would be much safer with an experienced, active owner who understands the breed.
