Story
Hey, my name is Fox and I am your average Husky. I love to talk, run, play, and do everything! My friends here at the shelter think I would do best in a home with someone who has experience with Huskies. I am not a big fan of cats but that’s just because they look like some of my stuffy toys… I am learning to be okay with other dogs but I really excited to see them and most dogs don’t like that. I have a big heart and a smart brain. I am learning how to walk a leash nicely and even more tricks, but the best part is I pick up on the tricks so fast! Here at the shelter we have a 4ft fenced in play yard in our backyard, I love to run in there-but I also like to stand on the fence and look over it. I am not a big fan of being left alone because I get bored, so it’s probably not a good idea to leave me outside unattended! I am such a sweet boy and I just need a perfect home with people who understand me! Please come meet me!!

Story
How are you doing on this fine afternoon? Oh me? I am doing great! I love running and playing. Sometimes I enjoy having a playmate but other times I do not. They say you have to be careful the kind of personalities you surround yourself with and I take that to heart! I came in with another dog, his name is Big Bear because he is a big big boy. I am not nearly as big as he is! We were just cruising around town when our Animal Control friend picked us up and brought us here. I am an adorable boy and would love to show you in person how adorable I am!

Story
This adorable little gal is Dixie! She is a 7year old female terrier mix. Dixie is looking for a special home with patient humans. Dixie has high anxiety and is very skittish. She’ll growl and show her teeth when she’s scared so a calmer home is preferred. She will bit if she is continually pushed so a home with no small kids is a must. Despite this, she is a super sweet dog who craves human love. Although Dixie tolerates the other dogs in her foster home, she would prefer to be an only dog so she can have all the attention. She desperately wants to be snuggled and feel secure. Dixie would be the perfect companion in a quiet, adult-only home. DIXIE'S ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED FOR THE RIGHT APPLICANT!! Dixie is spayed, current on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, and is kept on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. To adopt you MUST fill out an application which can be done on our website at www.handsofhoperescue.com. March 1, 2025, 4:10 pm
