Story
Valerian is an adult (born approx 4.1.17) neutered male Akita. He is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm negative, on flea/heartworm prevention, house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. Valerian was surrenderd to the shelter in Chesapeake, VA when the owner could no longer care for him. He had previously lived outside in a pen and was uncertain and stand off-ish when he first came to us, but he warmed up to a goofy, woo-ing, wiggle butt boy. He is just so sweet! Valerian would be fine in a home with children 12+ due to his high energy level and as an only pet.

Meet Sitka! This puppy cuteness was found running stray in March by a good Samaritan. He had no collar and no microchip. After following all the local laws and looking for an owner to no avail, he was brought to us. He is great with adults and other dogs. Due to some suspected mean people in his past, he will need a home without young children. He is looking for his forever home through our rescue. 💚

Story
ATLAS - 5yo male Husky yrs old, approx. 70 pounds. Playful (balls and squeaky toys), active (likes leash walks and jogs--but be aware that he has some chase drive).Like many huskies, he's not fond of extensive body handling. For that reason, he feel he would be best in a home without small/young (impulsive) children.Resource guarder (gets stiff, may show teeth if people or dogs approach him while he is eating or drinking). This is manageable for many owners--if you need some pointers, our staff can provide you with some safe management practices.Dog social: he will play with most dogs and has decent communication skills. However, sometimes Atlas is a little obnoxious (looks like: mounting and mouthy play) and may not always listen to other dogs when they tell him no so expect him to need some adult human supervision with other dogs. Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Grey Weight: 60 Age: 5yrs 2mths 3wks

Story
OBEYS COMMANDS, PROTECTIVE, GOOD ON LEASHBig fluffy 8-year-old HANSEL has been waiting patiently for his turn to walk out the doors of the shelter as newly adopted.Super quiet and easy going in the shelter cage, we normally find him lying down, just sleeping. We don't startle him, though, as surprising a sleeping dog (or human for that matter) might cause a reaction.Malamute savvy folks are encouraged to check this 86-pound guy out as he does have a few quirks including sensitivity around his neck and collar and guarding his food. Large and in-charge Hansel is quite skilled at walking on a leash, which he loves to do. And talk about a head-turner, Hansel will surely get attention from anyone and everyone you pass with his XL frame and XL fluff!Talk about going for walks...you will most likely be lucky to see Hansel's comical side in which he throws himself into certain bushes and proceeds to press his large body against the leaves and branches, back and forth. It is fun to watch as he wrangles around in the leaves and gets tangled in the vines. He also might try to chase joggers, bikers, and small critters he sees during his bush crushing breaks. EmojiHouse trained - he may have an accident once or twice a week - and reliable when left alone free to roam, Hansel has not been around kids nor other dogs. Bring any resident dog in for a meet and greet and let's see if they can coexist. If not, we are sure Hansel would enjoy soaking up all the attention and love himself!Muzzling when at a vet appointment is imperative with Hansel. We believe he is muzzle trained already so check that off the list and let's give Hansel a GOOD BOY for it!If you feel Hansel is meant to be yours, come on in and ask to meet him! Ask to go for a walk - don't forget the treats - and watch how he wrangles his way into your heart! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 84.7
