Siberian Husky

Male, 3 yrs 2 mos
Mountain View, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Three years old, neutered, and was a rescue; it takes some time for him to earn your trust; he is strong and sometimes pulls on leashes when walking. He has typical stubborn husky behavior; no cats or small animals, and no kids under 14, please, due to his mouthy and nipping behavior, and his bite is strong; sometimes you will bleed if you force him, so do not! Always ask for his permission before patting him, especially when he is lying down, which is the most vulnerable position for an outdoor animal like him during his earlier life when he was left outside 24/7 in the yard with a lack of socialization and human interaction. He can stay by himself for around 4 to 6 hours, but remember that Husky is a pack animal, which is not recommended for more than 2 hours. When leaving him alone, you need to lock him outside or create a safe zone for him inside the house; just like most huskies, they will start to be destructive and chew when bored. Generally, after three years old, they will begin to calm down. He was never crate trained, rides decent in the car, but makes lots of exciting noise! Trial adoption is recommended; feel free to see if he fits your family, I need to find him a good home, so I do not mind taking him back if things do not go well with the adoption.

Story
Pulled and rescued by All Joy 4 Paws, currently cared for listed with Silicon Valley Animal Rescue. Medium-size, around 50 pounds, super mellow and loves to cuddle and please you, un-neutered, still young, around two years old; although he needs house training, he does not destroy but will mark, mainly because he is an un-neutered outside dog. He was also rescued from a high-kill shelter, the last of his kind, a pure white husky.

Story
Simba is a high energy, 4.5 year old mixed breed dog who is full of love. He prefers to spend his time with his owner(s) but also loves to play with other dogs. He doesn't realize that he's a little big to be a lap dog and always finds a way to cuddle with people. Simba is intelligent, learns quickly, and is very food motivated. He's house trained and knows all the basic commands. Simba is ready for hikes, walks around the neighborhood, and runs! He rides well in cars (has done multiple cross country road trips) and is ready for any adventure. He can be anxious at times, particularly around new large dogs, but will warm up to them quickly. Simba would prefer to be the only dog in the house. He's looking for a stable home (ideally with a backyard) where his owners can give him all the attention in the world. Simba is loyal and loving companion!
