It's like he had just stepped o a beauty pageant runway. He has the makings of a movie star. He loves the spotlight :-). Honestly he's The Complete Package. This breed is known for being great escape artists. They love being outdoors. Gregarious and people loving. These are not good guard dogs. They are natural athletes, thriving on vigorous exercise. Wants to be involved with his people as much as possible. It is preferable that someone who is well informed about this breed adopts him. However he's very chill for a Husky. Loves riding in the car. Very well mannered. House trained. Plays well with both small and large sized dogs. He's been going to doggy socialization classes but he was a natural from day one. He must go to an active household that likes be outdoors like hiking, running, long walks, etc. This is a breed that needs daily exercise. He will want to snuggle and crawl into your lap. He would love to have a family with kids. Mishka is very well behaved; however, he is large and gets very excited when he meets people. A small child might get toppled over. He has not been cat temp tested. Age: 1.5 years Weight: 42 lbs Vetting: Up-to-date on vaccines, neutered and heartworm negative Temperament: Good with older sturdy kids ,dogs .

Additional adoption info
Those interested in dogs on our site are asked submit an application that we share with this dog's current caretaker. The caretaker reviews it to see if the pup would make a good fit for your home and if so, they will follow up with a phone interview. If you both agree it's a match, you would sign a contract, pay a fee and receive your dog within 2 weeks.
If both caretaker and applicant agree that the dog is a great fit, a contract is signed between the parties and the adoption fee is $400.00-$450.00 and is collected via PayPal. This adoption fee covers the cost of transport and also ensures the dog has all of it's basic vetting to include spay/neuter, shots, etc.

Our dogs travel from Atlanta, Georgia directly to their adoptive homes in the northeast. Our transporter drives up the coast from DC, all the way to Kittery, Maine.
While you can't meet our dogs prior to adoption, we will speak with you extensively, provide videos, share trainer evaluations and offer proof of vetting to ensure our dogs are a match for your home. Those that aren't, would be returned to us here in Atlanta at no cost to the adopter.
We also have partners in the Northeast who can help us facilitate adoptions and/or returns.

More about this rescue
Doggie Harmony was founded in Atlanta in 2009 by Liz Mansour and Jamie Sprague, a couple of neighbors seeking to help stray dogs that turned up locally.
From there, Doggie Harmony expanded to other neighborhoods and other people who found dogs and eventually, it was realized that nearly every neighborhood in Georgia found strays, most of which ended up in our grossly over-populated county shelters. With an estimated 300,000 unwanted pets destroyed yearly in Georgia shelters, we realized we had to find more homes to put them in.
In 2012, we began building partnerships with northeastern rescues and developed a consistent process for matching our dogs to great people and delivering those dogs to their homes up there. To become even more self-sufficent and less burdensome on our northeastern friends, we decided to launch Doggie Harmony Northeast.
