Story
Persephone is a very sweet dog, she likes to stand on two legs and give hugs. She gets along with our other Dog (Apollo, Australian Cattle Dog) but will bark at other dogs. Is very sweet with kids. Will leave cats alone after a day of curiosity. Shes a very indoor dog. Loves to play fetch and chase a ball but probably wont return the ball. She is very cuddly. She needs more attention then my family and living situation is currently capable of providing.

Ares

Husky

Male, Adult
Antwerp, NY
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ares is a typical siberian husky- lots of energy and needs stimulation and activities to keep him from being destructive. He is house trained, crate trained, knows sit command and is a giant cuddle bug. He loves to be the center of attention and should either have other dogs to play with or be adopted with his sister Onyx who he is very bonded with. He's will dig or destroy things if left alone for long periods of time but is otherwise well behaved. He does have the typical husky stubbornness and diva/backtalking vocalness at times so someone used to husky traits is recommended. Ares is also high energy like most huskies so someone who can dedicate appropriate play or training time is recommended. Unfortunately, I have other dogs and Ares is the youngest and my oldest has been unwilling to tolerate him so he is looking for a home either with other dogs or along with his sister so he has playmates that will not attack him.

Buddy is 6 yr old male. The progress he has made with us in the past year is amazing! He has been going to training and is literally the smartest boy! He is so eager to please his person but does take time to trust new people. He has gotten SO MUCH better with interactions. He really is ready for his forever home! Buddy does needs to be your only pet, and no kids for him.

Simon is a volunteer favorite, and it's easy to see why! This charming husky has a playful spirit and a lovable personality that endears him to everyone he meets. Whether he's strutting his stuff on a walk or riding in the car, Simon is always ready for an adventure. He's great on a leash, making walks a joy, and he loves to play ball, often doing a cute little hop in his walk that never fails to bring a smile to your face. Ideal Home: Cat-free home Understanding of house training needs: We need a family willing to use a pee wrap and work with a trainer, for whom we will give you a scholarship. No other huskies, but has been happily interacting with other breeds. Loving and active: A family ready to provide love, attention, and plenty of playtime. We know the perfect home is out there for Simon-a home where he can be loved for his wonderful qualities and his goofy, playful nature. Are you ready to give Simon the forever home he deserves?
