Story
Elly is a one year old dog. Who is very loving and active. She is not aggressive at all she is love humans (way too much sometimes!). She is a deaf dog so if she is around other dogs or people, she should always be supervised due to her not pick up social cues, due to deafness. Preferred home with no animals. She require daily’s walks, exercise or play. She gets bored and moody if not excersise happens. Her walking and crate training still needs work as well as jumping, I adopted her from the shelter, were precious owner did not want to give more information on her. She knows how to sit, lay, and go to her place. All hand signals.

Story
Name: Yuki Sex: Female Color: Isabella White Eye Color: Brown Birthday: 11/15/20 Weight: 40 Large Dog Friendly: Yes, she does really well with all the dogs she meets at the dog park. At home she tends to get nervous with other dogs when they are too hyper or wild. Small Dog Friendly: Unknown Cat Friendly: No Crate Trained: At this time, no, as she is not used to being in a crate. Appears to have some separation anxiety and will need work to get crate trained. Housebroken: Yes Energy Level: She is typically very calm, but does get zoomies and likes to run around. She would do best in a home where she can relax, cuddle and get all the belly rubs! She also loves walks, and regular runs in a fenced in yard/area Reaction to New People: She is shy at first, but warms up quickly and loves pets. Needs to work on socialization with new people and situations Kid Friendly: Older and calmer would be best for her, as young kids and their noises and quick movements make her nervous. Training: She knows the basics, but could use some better leash manners as she likes to jump around and go all husky when asked to go potty. She needs socialization to learn some confidence in new/public situations. Like most huskies, she is a runner, so caution by the doors and getting in and out of the car is needed. Fence: Currently she goes out on a leash to go potty and then back in, as she does not appear to like the cold as much as a lot of huskies. She does respect the fence at a dog park, but at home would need to be on a tie out or supervised as she will dig under or try to climb out. Solo or Siblings: She would love to be the lone center of human attention, but could also like a sibling to play with, depending on the dog as she can be picky about her playmates and if they are too hyper she can be nervous. From the Foster: Yuki is a furry little princess that loves all the attention. She is overall pretty calm, but also has her husky zoomies. Since a small pup, she has always been a bit shy and hesitant in unknown situations/people and needs to build her confidence, but she does love to explore, and would benefit from socialization and group training class. Like a typical husky, she loves to run, climb, jump etc, so may also benefit from joring or agility classes. She is tolerant of baths, but is scared of water otherwise, and will tip-toe through wet grass. She loves attention and belly rubs, and will lay on her back and paw at you or reach out to you for more if you stop. She is an all around adventurous, loving, curious and goofy girl who needs a best friend to cuddle, experience life with, and to help her overcome her nervousness/fear of the world. Adoption Fee: $50 - Submit an adoption before Valentines Day and upon approval Yuki will be available at the reduced adoption fee. All dogs coming into Adopt a Husky Minnesota receive care tailored to their needs, including: Nose-to-tail exam with a partner veterinarian, Vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella), 4DX test to check for heartworm or tick exposure, Fecal Analysis, Heartworm and Flea/Tick Preventative, Spay/Neuter prior to adoption, Microchip, and are evaluated for temperament and trainability.

Story
Name: Teddy Color: Red & White Eye Color: Blue Birthday: 09-24-2021 (estimated) Weight: 60 Large dog friendly: Yes, prefers females. Can be selective meeting dogs on leash. Small dog friendly: No Cat friendly: No, strong prey drive Crate trained: Yes, but does whine, pace and bark. He had a history of soiling his kennel too. We are using a prescribed medication (prosac) to help ease his anxiety and have seen amazing results. It's an inexpensive med, costing just $8 for a sixty day supply. He has complete free roam of the house when home alone now. Has never been destructive. House-trained: Yes Energy level: Medium Reaction to new people: Friendly Kid friendly: Loves kids Training: Knows sit, paw, lay-down Normal husky coat which will require regular brushing. You should aim for once a week or so, and more when he is blowing his coat, typically twice a year. Fence: Strong tie-out recommended. He is an escape artist (can climb fences, and flip up gate latches) Solo or siblings: Requires a sibling, was adopted as a solo dog and was anxious, Just wasn't the right environment for him. From the foster: Need a snuggle buddy? Teddy is the one to keep you cozy at night and "aaaoooohhh" sweet nothings. Teddy gets along best with female dogs, and will take redirection well from dogs and humans. He tends to jump when greeting people and likes to counter surf. Teddy paces to let you know when he needs to go out. He enjoys walking nicely on the leash (not pulling too hard), followed by cuddles on the couch with his foster and the kids, nudging them for pets. Teddy does have some separation anxiety when home alone. Shared walls/apartment living would not be a good fit as he can be noisy at times, he is getting better and many times will go lay in his crate by choice when we are home. He recently started having free roam and has been doing really good! He is by far one of the sweetest and lovable huskies you'll ever meet. Adoption Fee: $50 - Submit an adoption application before Valentines Day and upon approval Teddy will be available at the reduced adoption fee. All dogs coming into Adopt a Husky Minnesota receive care tailored to their needs, including: Nose-to-tail exam with a partner veterinarian, Vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella), 4DX test to check for heartworm or tick exposure, Fecal Analysis, Heartworm and Flea/Tick Preventative, Spay/Neuter prior to adoption, Microchip, and are evaluated for temperament and trainability.

Story
Name: Lobo Sex: Male Color: Black & White Eye Color: Blue Birthday: 01/31/21 Weight: 55 lbs Large Dog Friendly: Yes Small Dog Friendly: Unknown Cat Friendly: No Crate Trained: Yes, in crate overnight and while not home. Doesn't whine, bark or scratch. Housebroken: Yes, is fairly regular, sits and barks by the door or rings the bell on the door. Energy Level: He does fine if we run, take short or long walks, or go hiking. He's also content hanging around the house and being mellow. If he gets bored he'll bring you a toy or come talk to you. Reaction to New People: Curious, gives a good sniff, may try to jump up for a closer look but not always. Kid Friendly: Yes, he's slightly reactive at barriers like a baby gate or in his bed but moreso only if he's surprised. We have four kids 7-15 and they all have friends over and do fine after being educated about large dogs if they don't have experience. Training: Learns quick. Listens well inside, needs more training outside with distractions. Knows sit, shake, down (lay down), leave it/drop, roll over and plays fetch and tug of war with toys inside. Grooming Needs: Typical Husky/dog Fence: Respects baby gates, doesn't know he could jump a 4' fence so does respect them as well. Solo or Siblings: Will do fine with other dogs. He did great with Charlie (another foster Husky for around 3 months) but sometimes they had different ideas about when to play or rest. Pretty normal stuff. He's been watched by other fosters with dogs who provided good feedback. From the Foster: Lobo is great, he learns really quick and has made huge strides in all areas and loves to please so he'll work hard at anything. He has some things to work on, mainly pulling on walks (much better with a pinch collar), excited by animals, and other dogs but his mannerisms express he wants to go play. He responds to new training really fast within 2-3 days of working consistently on something. He'd be great for sports. In cool weather he pulls on runs for up to 1.5 miles and then jogged next to me for another 1.5+ miles for 3+ total. I believe he can go further with continued workouts. He can be silly and likes to play including some tug of war, fetch in the house, light wrestling. He's very sweet loves to lay with the kids and be pet. He counter-surfs and is opportunistic if food is left out. He doesn't dig into trash or the pantry stuff though. He's been protective of long-lasting snacks like a raw bone or something in a Kong but has gotten less reactive with these things over time. Adoption Fee: $50 - Submit an adoption application before Valentines Day and upon approval Lobo will be available at the reduced adoption fee.

Story
Name: Keeva Sex: Female Color: Black & White Eye Color: Blue Birthday: 02/26/24 Weight: 40 lbs Large Dog Friendly: Yes Small Dog Friendly: Yes Cat Friendly: Unknown Crate Trained: Yes Housebroken: Yes Energy Level: High Reaction to New People: Keeva is still working on learning to like new people. She will run and hide or bark at people she does not know. She is not aggressive just fearful. Kid Friendly: Yes Training: Knows sit and No Grooming Needs: Shorter coat that is easy to keep clean and brush Fence: Would be best. She does use a tie out for potty and does well on that while supervised Solo or Siblings: She would do better with another dog. She watches her foster brother for his reaction to new things and guidance. She loves to play husky style so will need a tolerant pup. Sometimes she does not take the other dogs signal for stop and will continue to pester. Not mean, just playful From the Foster: Keeva was astray that came from Animal Control so nothing is known about her past. She still is very shy with new people and runs away to hide when she feels scared. Her foster mom has been working with her and doing slow meet and greets with treats. She loves treats so she is very interested in getting one of those. She only took a day to feel comfortable at her new foster home. She is young so there is time to teach her that people are good. She is very active. A typical young husky that likes to find things and put them in her mouth. Her new home will have to be very puppy proof so that she doesn't get in trouble. Keeva is so loving. Once she has had exercise she loves to lay by her foster mom and cuddle. She has the cutest husky curl ever. Being so little she walks easy on leash but is again afraid of a lot of activity or noise and will try and retreat. She has done well with all dogs she has met, she loves dog friends. She can be a little pest for older dogs but she is not mean. Her foster family says she is just full of joy!

Story
Luna is a 4 yr old, 54# hound that came to us from a Reservation. She is calm, gentle, sweet, and shows her affection by giving you little kisses. She is housebroken - doesn’t ask to go out, but is put out 4 times/day; first thing in the morning, just before bedtime, and a couple times in between. Luna is so well behaved that she doesn’t need to be kenneled when left. A kennel is in the foster’s bedroom, and the door left open – at night, she will either sleep in bed with her foster mom or will go into the kennel on her own. Luna is very easy to have around, except for her prey drive (especially for rabbits – I wouldn't doubt she had to hunt for her own food on the Reservation, and she became quite skilled at it). Luna's best match might be someone that didn't go for walks, but perhaps went to the dog park or just exercised her in a fenced yard. If you are walking her, and she sees a bunny, or other critter, she goes after it. Now the foster keeps her on a long lead even when she goes out into the fenced yard (if you had a 5 ft fence or higher, you wouldn't need to keep her on a lead). Luna likes attention, but is not a pest. She knows the “sit” command and comes when called. No interest in toys; does play with the younger foster pup in the house. Luna would be fine as an only dog, or could be paired with another canine. Fine riding in the car – stayed in the back seat. We haven’t seen her interact with kids, but expect she would be good with kids 8 yr and up……….they should not have an expectation of play or walking her. Luna is quiet – seldom barks. She has been spayed, and is current on distemper and rabies vaccinations. The heartworm test and tick profiles are negative. Her microchip is registered to Second Chance. Luna has a $375 adoption fee. Call 651-771-5662 if you would like to meet her.
