Daggett

Husky

Lake Tahoe, CA

Size

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

Details

Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Beautiful and friendly Daggett was saved from euthanasia and is looking for a qualified adopter or foster home. Daggett has recently been neutered and is hoping to find a devoted and husky-savvy person or family with older children. Daggett is being boarded at a training facility in Lake Tahoe, where he is gaining weight and confidence, and receiving training. Daggett is high energy, and wants very much to see other dogs. He seems fine with female dogs and walks nicely with another large male, but plays exuberantly. Daggett loves chasing a ball, and will bring it back over and over-he even tries to play ball while you are driving by dropping a ball on the console! He rides well in cars and is crate-trained. Daggett is a diamond in the rough, extremely smart and motivated by affection and food. With the right environment he could be the dog of a lifetime. Daggett will require an experienced and active home, without small children or cats (untested but assume this would not be a good combination as he wants to chase birds and squirrels)

OSIRIS

German Shepherd Dog

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Osiris. He's a 2 year old neutered Shepard/Husky mix. Osiris is a special guy. He needs to go home with someone willing to take him for walks on a leash several times a day. He is a fence jumper with a serious desire to explore. He also finds small animals very interesting, so he cannot go to a home with cats. Osiris can be very chill once he's had the opportunity to get some much needed exercise. He would make a great companion in an apartment.December 15, 2025, 2:16 pm
