My story

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

Hello, my name is Lakota, and I can’t even contain my excitement about being pulled from a packed and noisy shelter and into the care of Moonsong! Did you know that there’s even a geologic reservoir named after me that is thousands of feet underground? (okay, well maybe it’s the other way around)!

I am a medium to large-sized husky, weighing close to 60 lbs. I’m mild to moderate energy, meaning that if you are active, I am active! If you are inactive, I can be too and would love nothing more than to be your favorite couch potato! I do very well with all dogs, though our fabulous volunteers have not yet tested me with small dogs. I walk exceptionally well on a leash and would make a great hiking buddy. I won’t pull you across a mountain, and I like to walk in a straight line! How many huskies can say that? I am an absolute love bug and seem to do well with all people of all shapes and sizes, and ride very well in a car. I am quite vocal and will let you know when I can use some attention! Oh… and GET THIS….I recall! I sit, I stay, and I recall. Few huskies can say that either!

There are a couple of things that you should know about me; I am not a fan of cats and will not be placed in a home with those odd creatures. I am also extremely smart and like to open gates. I won’t necessarily take off for an adventure, but I’ll try to get out to snuggle with my favorite human. I would do anything for a home with people who will spend a lot of time with me, as I don’t enjoy being alone. In fact, I would do best with a family that has somebody home most of the day to keep company with me, as I do have some separation anxiety.

Moonsong is still learning more about me, so please continue to check in. I’m waiting for woooo!
