Story
Meet Zag !! This stunning puppy and his brother Zig found themselves in a rural shelter. They very a bit skiddish and shy so the shelter thought foster based rescue was the best option. They were right! They are absolutely flourishing and rapidly gaining confidence after going to separate foster homes. Zag is a male and approx 5 months old. He weighs 39 pounds. He is supposed to be full husky but we aren’t sure about that. (Pics of parents the shelter had are at the end) He will be given several sets of vaccines, deworming, a microchip and neuter as part of his adoption. Zag is really doing well for his age. He’s excelling at his training and listens well. He’s very cuddly and loves to try and get into your lap. He loves other dogs and loves kids. He enjoys playing with other dogs and rough housing around the yard. This breed can have a high prey drive and not always work well with cats but so far we haven’t seen much prey drive. Zag has seen bunnies in a cage and ignore them. This may or may not translate to cats. He is good on car rides. He was whiny at times but he didn’t get sick. The last trip he took he whined very little. He is doing really well with potty training. He’s only had a few accidents and never goes inside his crate. He’s figuring out the routine well. Zag is still working on leash training. He had never been on one before and was terrified and flailing the first day. With a safety harness he has really stared to figure it out. The tension still scares him at times but overall he is learning. He is doing great with crating. He can have a verbal tantrum when first put in but it doesn’t last long. He has shown no trouble sharing food treats or toys with people and other dogs. He is very gentle when taking treats. Zag loves toys. He will empty the entire toy basket and have a blast. He also loves playing and running with the other dogs. He loves chew bones and treats. He is still young and in the chewing stage. He does very well when you’re watching him and being crated when you’re not able to watch him. Okay so here is where the post gets fun. The breed tells us to expect a lot of hyper, goofy, crazy husky antics in his future….. but currently he is the quietest, calmest and easiest husky type pup we have ever met. Maybe he is saving it for his adopters 🤷‍♀️😂 So while he is a calm chill easy going dude right now we are still going to anticipate typical breed antics when placing him in his home. ➡️➡️Some issues that are typical with Husky type breeds you should know about and consider! ♦️ENDLESS ENERGY! The Husky breed has so much energy. You need to exercise them both physically and mentally multiple times a day, every single day. If you are not an extremely active person and you’re not home often then they will be very unhappy. ♦️VOCAL! Huskys are loud. They bark, howl and “talk” all the time. This is absolutely not an apartment or condo dog. ♦️ESCAPE ARTIST! The husky breed is notorious for going over and under fencing if they get bored. You must have a 5ft or higher fenced in yard and they can NOT be left outside alone. They will get bored and escape. ♦️Please do not get a husky and think you will be able to change their core genetic behaviors. They are going to be active, vocal and escape if not properly watched for life. These things rarely change for this breed despite age or training. (Proper obedience work and keeping up with physical and mental exercise will help tone down these behaviors, but won’t eliminate them.) Adopting a young puppy is a ton of work. They will have lots of potty accidents, chew things up etc. You will need to help them learn things like leash walking, crate training and basic manners. It can be a lot of work but the reward is a dog that fits well into your family’s lifestyle if you invest proper time on training with them. Please carefully consider the time and effort a puppy requires before adopting. Home and vet checks required. ♦️5ft or higher fenced yard required ♦️No apartments or condos ♦️‼️NO EXCEPTIONS‼️♦️ Located in Hampton VA. (He will need to be adopted within a 1 hour drive radius) ‼️Please message VillageDogResource@gmail.com directly with questions or to get an application for more pics visit our Facebook page.

They were right! They are absolutely flourishing and rapidly gaining confidence after going to separate foster homes. Zig is a male and approx 5 months old. He weighs 36 pounds. He is supposed to be full husky but we aren’t sure about that. (Pics of parents the shelter had are at the end) He will be given several sets of vaccines, deworming, a microchip and neuter as part of his adoption. Honestly Zig has been an excellent puppy since the moment he arrived. We are shocked at how well he adjusted and how good he behaves. Despite being young and a husky he’s very easy and cooperative. He’s super sweet and learns fast. He loves other dogs and loves kids. He enjoys playing with other dogs but isn’t overbearing and will relax with them as well. This breed can have a high prey drive and not always work well with cats but so far we haven’t seen much prey drive. Zig briefly met cats on an outing and was curious for a moment and then ignored them. That could change but his initial reaction with them went very well. He is good on car rides. He was whiny at times but he didn’t get sick. The last trip he took he whined very little. He is doing excellent with potty training. Despite his younger age he has no trouble holding it all night and during an 8 hour work day. He hasn’t had a single accident since he arrived. He learned the routine fast and we are impressed with how quickly he adjusted. Zig is still working on leash training. He had never been on one before and was terrified and flailing the first day. With a safety harness he has really stared to figure it out. The tension still scares him at times but overall he is learning. He is doing great with crating. He comes inside and puts himself in the crate and waits for his treat. He’s fine crated while you’re away at work. He’s been surprisingly quiet while crated. He gives a few barks when you first return or when he needs to go out but that’s it. He has no trouble sharing food treats or toys with people. He initially did some growing at other dogs over food and bones but that seems to be fading away quickly as he learns that there is always food available. He plays well sharing toys with other dogs. He is very gentle when taking treats. Zig is just starting to get interested in toys. He’s mostly interested in chasing a ball or toy when you throw it but not so much bringing it back. He loves chew bones and treats. He is still young and in the chewing stage. He does very well when you’re watching him and being crated when you’re not able to watch him.

Story
Loki is a 6 year old Siberian Husky. He has been with us since he was 2 months old. House trained?!!! he is a husky, so that pretty much tells you that he is trained to what he wants to be trained on🤪 It saddens the family to re-home him, but it is unfair for him to stay with us. Our work schedule and kids’ school can no longer suffice his needs.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Judge Juju is a fun and energetic, typical husky. That means he loves everybody and has a bit of a prey drive for small animals. He would do best in a home with dogs only and children 6+. We love adopters with husky experience, but are happy to consider anyone that fills they could be a good fit and understand the needs of a husky. He is a bit of an escape artist and VERY smart. One example is pulling off the sliding cover of a doggy door, so that he can continue to use said doggy door. So if you are looking for a smart, beautiful, stubborn companion, consider Juju.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 23, 2026, 4:16 pm
