Story
Meet Wednesday, a tiny puppy with a big personality! He was brought to CHA after being found as a stray by a good Samaritan. He is a 2 month-old mixed breed dog who currently weighs 10 lbs. He will grow to be a large sized dog. Wednesday is a confident, playful puppy who enjoys going on long walks, exploring the play yard, and rolling around on his blankets as he chews on his toys. Wednesday is always happy to meet new people, and will greet visitors with a wiggly body. He is very intelligent and learns new skills quickly. While at a foster home, Wednesday displayed some food guarding behaviors while eating next to his sibling. Wednesday has now begun a food guarding desensitization plan but it will be important for adopters to continue with this plan and consult a trainer for further guidance to correct these behaviors while he is still young.As he has displayed resource guarding behaviors, Wednesday would do best in a home with mature children who understand that he should not be disturbed while eating food or high value treats, and who are not as likely to drop food on the floor. If this sounds like your home, and you`re looking to add some puppy goofiness to your life, Wednesday could be the perfect dog for you!

Story
Meet Marko and Phoenix! Their owners rescued them in 2021 but are now hoping to rehome them together due to young children. They are both loving, playful, and would do best in a home with a fenced in yard. Phoenix is a 3 year old female and is spayed/microchipped. She is a sweet girl with a more laid back, independent personality. Marko is a 6 year old male and is neutered/microchipped. He loves getting attention and being around people with exception to the vet, but his anxiety at visits has improved as trust has been built. Both are crate/potty trained and up to date on shots.

I got Luca from petland a weeks before he turned 4 months. He has been with me since feb 23. Hes such a spoiled boy. He is very loving. Unfortunately i just signed a new lease and they no longer allow dogs over 50lbs as an adult which most likely he will be a little over 50lbs so i have to rehome him.

Due to family situation, Kai needs to be rehomed. He loves to play with other dogs & hard chewy toys. He is shy at first but warms to you so he will be close to you. He has not been around young children or cats. He is neutered. He is not totally housebroken. we have a large crate but not crate trained. He is smart but we have not been able to devote enough continuous training due to disruption in our home. Kai is looking for a loving home where he will be even happier.

Story
My son found Beta (Sasha) and took her back to her owners from Chip reader. They did not want her!!! She was kept outside all the time, abused and not feed good. When I got her she was fearful and scared as she should have been as to being in a new place. She is a good girl loves to walk out side and play with her red ball. She is scared of kids and men. It took several days before she would let me touch her and then she opened up a few months later with being vocal. She hasn't been around many people since how she was raised. Now she love to cuddle when you say Cuddle time!! she has her own pillow that she lays on at night in bed and she sleeps on her back. Being 52 yrs old with 2 shoulder surgeries and another on the way I can't take care of her the way she needs. She needs a big back yard to run and play with other dogs and she needs someone with the time to help break out of the abusive shell she is in with kids and men.

Story
Our dog name is Hannah, we bought her at a pet store in 2018. Hannah was born in 2018, she is spayed and has all her vaccines up to date. She is very playful and energetic. The main reason why we are giving her up for adoption is because my husband works out of state and we have a 20-month-old child and as a mother who practically lives alone, it is very difficult for me to take care of my son and Hannah. As I have already written, she is a very energetic dog and she likes to be taken out for walks and to play constantly. I am currently looking for a job and I do not think it is fair that Hannah has to stay practically all day alone at home.

Husky fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Husky's name may be the result of linguistic confusion. It is believed the Eskimos were referred to as "Eskys,"; this abbreviation might have been applied to their dogs, resulting in "Husky." The term "Husky" goes back in written record to 1850.

In 1925, Huskies were responsible for saving the Alaskan city of Nome from a diptheria epidemic. Called the "Serum run," a team of Huskies ran the lifesaving serum to Nome, effectively rescuing the city's inhabitants.

Huskies are a very vocal breed, with a howl that can be heard up to ten miles away!
