My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dojo here! I`m a 1 1/2 year old neutered male husky. I`m all white, aside from my bright blue eyes! You see, I`m the kind of dog that reads the rule book, and picks and chooses what I think is reasonable (be quiet indoors? Share my food and toys? Keep all 4 paws on the floor at all times? Yeah, I don`t think so!). I can be a little standoffish when I`m first meeting somebody I don`t know, and I need them to take things at my own pace. Give me a little space, some hot dogs or cheese (or anything edible really, I`m not so picky!), tell me how handsome I am and how brave of a boy I`m being, and then I may waltz over to you for a hello.

My people here at the shelter say my body language can be a little misleading, so I need an owner that REALLY gets huskies and the quirks we have. The staff says I can`t go home with somebody that does not have experience owning dogs like me (they seem pretty serious about this, too). They think I would heavily benefit from working with a trainer, and would like to see me improve on my basic skills as well as learn some new ones to help me stay out of trouble

I do not like the idea of living with children, but teens+ that have lived with dogs before might be alright, I`d definitely have to meet them first. Sometimes I can`t contain myself when something small scurries across me, so I probably wouldn`t be the best guy to have around cats or small animals. Dogs? Oh, dogs... some are okay I guess, but I absolutely need to meet them and feel the vibes before I commit to living with them. I might like the idea of being the only dog in my new home more, though.

Whattaya say, wanna come meet me?

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

You must be 18 years or older to adopt an animal. A valid ID is required.

If you own your own home, please provide proof of home-ownership; a mortgage receipt, tax bill, water bill or deed will suffice.

If you rent, please bring your lease which states the type of pet you are interested in and that it is accepted or the name and phone of your landlord so we can verify the pet is allowed. Inquire with your landlord about any size or breed restrictions.

Please check with your home owner’s insurance company or landlord to find out if they have any restrictions on the breed(s) of dog they cover. Common breeds that may not be covered include: Pit Bulls, Doberman Pinschers, Rottweilers and German Shepherds.

For the health and safety of the pet you are interested in adopting and your existing pets, we ask that you provide proof of current vaccinations and spay/neuter status for pets in your home. (We may be able to call your veterinarian if you do not have a copy available.)

A new pet is a family decision and we ask that all members of your family meet the pet and agree on the suitability for your household.

If you already have a dog(s) in your home please bring the dog(s) with you to meet the dog you are considering to see if they are compatible.

Complete an adoption application and talk with a staff member for more information about the animal you are considering.
