Story
Rosie has been with my family for about 4 years and she came to us from a friend who adopted her from a shelter, so we are unsure of her background. Rosie is a snuggle bug kind of girl and very much a lover. She is extremely energetic and loves to run! She can play too wildly and gets too into it from time to time. Our reason for rehoming her is due to the wild play and the issues that stem from that. Currently we are struggling to get our children to not engage in rough housing with her because she seems to have very strong hunting/chasing etc. instincts. I recommend that she is in a home with a calm atmosphere with no smaller pets whatsoever and potentially no children. She is very adaptable to the environment which also includes when things get chaotic around her she feeds into that as well. We love Rosie so very much, but the circumstances in our home are not changing and it is currently not ideal for our family or Rosie. She needs a loving home that will guide her and train her.

Story
Just one look at this guy and you’ll see exactly how he got his name — Happy’s signature smile never leaves his face. Whether he’s lounging beside his favorite person, romping around with his dog friends, or playing with a toy, he radiates pure joy. At 2.5 years old and about 70 pounds, Happy is a mixed-breed bundle of sunshine who truly loves life. He makes friends with every person and dog he meets and would be the perfect adventure buddy for anyone with a moderate to active lifestyle. Happy especially loves being outside, where he can stretch his legs, feel the breeze on his fur, and get in all the sniffs his heart desires. Sometimes he forgets he’s not a lap dog and will try to wiggle right into your lap for cuddles — he just has that much love to give! He’s potty-trained and crate-trained, though he’s still working on polishing up his basic manners. Happy gets along well with other dogs, though he’s still learning to respect boundaries during playtime. He's a big boy and has a mild prey drive, so he'd do best in a home without cats. With his infectious joy and go-with-the-flow attitude, Happy would fit right in with just about any loving home. If you’re looking for a companion who finds delight in every little moment, this cheerful guy is ready to make your days brighter!

Husk

Husky

Male, 1 yr 7 mos

Good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Husk is a 1.5-year-old male Siberian Husky with a story of resilience and a heart full of joy. He was found wandering as a stray in Texas and came into care in very rough condition—nearly hairless on his legs and snout, with cracked, bleeding skin. Thanks to months of patience and care, Husk has made an incredible recovery. Six months later, his fur is growing back beautifully, and he’s been transported north in hopes of finding the forever home he truly deserves. Today, Husk is a stunning, regal boy with gorgeous coloring and a smile that can light up a room. His personality, though? Pure goofball. He’s a classic husky—independent, a little mischievous, and blissfully unaware of personal boundaries—but above all else, Husk just wants to have fun. He’s never met a person or dog he didn’t assume was a potential friend and playmate. Husk loves romping around the yard with other dogs, exploring the outdoors, and satisfying his curious, adventurous spirit. After he’s had his fill of playtime, he’s happy to curl up into a fluffy ball for a well-earned nap… until it’s time to do it all over again. He is fully potty-trained and crate-trained, knows his basic commands, and is continuing to work on his manners. Husk does great with other dogs and older kids, but because he tends to jump and invade personal space, he would do best in a home without small children or cats. Husk would thrive in a home ready to embrace his happy, energetic nature and give him the love, care, and comfort he missed out on during the first year and a half of his life. If you’re looking for a joyful, playful companion and are ready for a little husky-style chaos and a lot of love, Husk might just be your perfect match.
