Story
I've had Moscow since he was 6 weeks old, and he's been a huge part of my life. Family dynamics and allergies have made it impossible to give him the life he deserves, so I'm doing the hard thing and finding him a home that truly can. Moscow is a friendly, loving Siberian Husky (possibly Malamute mix) who is great w/ people and dogs. He loves playing outside, chest scratches, and happily lounges around the house when things are calm. He'd live outside in the winter if we let him, but an inside dog year round. He needs exercise, attention, and patience with shedding. He jumps when excited, doesn't love being alone, and off-leash recall is a work in progress, so a secure fenced yard is a must. Not aggressive at all, but too big and unaware for small children. No animals or kids near him while eating. Vaccines current. Large crate included. If you have experience with the breed, an active lifestyle, a secured yard, and room in your heart please reach out. A safe, loving home is important.

Story
Blu is a handsome husky mix with a sweet, friendly personality and a playful, medium-energy vibe. He’s happiest when he’s out and about, enjoying the yard and exploring his surroundings. Blu gets along well with other dogs once he settles in, and though he may show a little initial confidence when first meeting new friends or heading out on leash, he quickly warms up and enjoys interacting. This smart, spirited boy would thrive in a home that can give him gentle guidance, consistent routine, and plenty of time to stretch his legs. Blu is the kind of pup who, once comfortable, shows his affectionate, easygoing side and will bring joy to his forever family.
