Story
This is Shinju… it means Pearl in Japanese. Shinju is about 2 yrs old, she weighs approximately 60 pounds and is a husky-pit mix… at least that’s what everyone thinks. Shinju has a medical condition that is managed well with medication and like many of us, she does have a little bit of baggage from her past. Shinju is a very sweet and loyal dog who does well with people and other dogs, although she can be cautious and nervous at first. She is up-to-date on her shots and vet appointments. She is crate trained; in fact, she loves her crate and it is her preferred place to sleep when it’s bed time. She loves attention, treats and belly rubs. She has attended a 6-week puppy training class and knows her name and these commands: sit, no, car ride, walk, high 5, go potty, and shake. She likes long walks around the block, trail hikes, jumping and running around in water, and she really loves playing in and eating snow.

Story
Hello! My name is Balto. Location: Chubbuck, ID Age: 2 Years Sex: Male/Neutered Microchipped: Yes Current Vaccines: Yes Parasite Prevention: Current Weight: 51 lbs. Children Under 10: Yes Children Over 10: Yes Friendly With Dogs: Yes Friendly With Cats: No Potty Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Mostly Leash Trained: Working on it Adoption Fee: $130 Additional Notes: Balto arrived at SSH on 10/23/2025. He was very sickly. His owner passed away and the surviving family put him out on the streets to fend for himself. He never left the general area of his home until it was time to be rescued. Fast forward a few weeks and here we are. Balto is putting on weight, been groomed, fixed, vaccinated and microchipped. He's great with kids and will selflessly play dress-up. He's also great with other dogs, both big and small. We're looking for a home for Balto that has a large backyard or space where he can run and play with another dog in the home. A child who would love on him would be a bonus! Balto is currently working on some car ride anxiety and has a training plan in place for prospective applicants but otherwise he's a 10/10 perfect boy!
