Story
Copper (AKA Copper II) came to us in 2019 from a kennel in Maine. Since his arrival, he has been a fan favorite at the kennel. Between his charming good looks and friendly disposition, it's easy to see why. Copper is an 11 year old sled dog who is ready to retire and give house life a try. This gentle giant still enjoys going on adventures and would be a great outdoor buddy for someone who is medium energy. During his time with us, Copper has always gotten along fantastic with children. He also gets along well with female dogs, but tends to be male dog selective. We don't have cats, or small animals, so we are unsure how he may do in a home with them. Overall, Copper has been an "easy keeper" and is generally a low maintenance fella who is always happy to receive a treat and affection. He would be a wonderful family dog. Things To Consider Before Adopting A Sled Dog: - They are used to living in an outdoor, working environment. This means that they will need to be house trained and exposed to “house stimulus” like stairs, cars, vacuums, wood floors etc. Adopting an adult sled dog is similar to welcoming a puppy. - They typically range from medium to high energy. In general they require multiple walks daily and engaging toys when inside the home. A bored/under exercised sled dog is a destructive and anxious sled dog! - They are trained to run and are therefore a high flight risk. We do require that they be on leash or within a fenced in yard at all times until proper recall training has been received. - While they have befriended many kitties in their new homes, we do not have small animals at the kennel to gauge their reactions and safety to them.

Story
Larry was born at the kennel in 2013 and has been a fantastic sled dog during his time with us. That being said, the time has come where he think he wants to give house life a try. Larry has what we jokingly refer to as "resting dog face" at the kennel because he always has a kind of mopey expression, his tail could be going a mile a minute, and his full body could be wiggling with excitement, yet his face will be totally neutral. Larry is friendly, and affectionate, without being demanding about it. He often takes a minute to warm up to new faces, and consequently can come across as standoffish, but he does comes out of his shell fairly quickly when given the chance. In general, he is a calm dog that would be just as happy to go for walks as he would cuddle on a doggie bed at your feet while you work. Larry gets along fine with other dogs. While he gets along with children, they are not his crowd of choice. Larry much prefers older individuals, and those with calm energy. He would be a great companion for single person, or older couple. Things To Consider Before Adopting A Sled Dog: - They are used to living in an outdoor, working environment.

Story
Missy came to us all the way from Illinois when her owner passed away from cancer. Fast forward many miles on the trail, Missy is ready to retire. Missy is an 11 year old gal who is a bit shy and reserved, she would prefer a quieter home with no children. She likes other dogs and would be an amazing walking / hiking buddy.

Story
Meet Shaggy - and while he might be "retired", he’s still got it. He’d love a home that can commit to daily walks and occasional hikes. Like his namesake, he tends to be aloof and loves attention (butt scratches and smooches are his favorite). While in general he gets along with other dogs, he does best with female dogs around his size. We'd prefer to place him in a home without small children.

Story
Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you? Probably causing a ruckus. Scooby is a fun loving, happy, goofy, dog who never lacks adventure. He’d make an excellent companion with someone who is outdoorsy. He may be 10, but he's still full of spunk and needs a home who can commit to providing him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation. He’d love to go hiking and spend his time exploring the great outdoors. Scooby does well with kids. We'd prefer to place him in a home without other dogs as he can sometimes be an instigator and doesn't always "read the room" well enough to know when other dogs aren't having his antics. All in all, he's a fantastic happy dog who's ready to explore.

Ruby was born at the kennel in 2014 she is super sweet and loves everyone she meets. Ruby is wonderful and patient with children. We do not know how she would be with cats or other small animals as we have no way of testing at our facility.
