Story
Hi there, I'm Polar! I'm a friendly, playful, energetic, and smart fellow. I'm also quite the adventurer and hiking is my favorite activity! There's something about the thrill of exploring that I just can't get enough of. I'm also a big fan of other dogs! Especially pups close to my size who can match my rowdy play style. I can be a bit too much for the smaller dogs though, so I'd do best in a home without them or any cats. But don't worry, I'm not all energy all the time, I also love to snuggle up and relax. I'm the perfect balance of fun and calm. If you're looking for a companion who can keep up with your adventures and also be there for quiet, comforting moments, then I'm your dog! Let's make some unforgettable memories together. My adoption fee is $350 and includes the following: -Spay/neuter surgery -All current vaccinations -Microchip -FREE wellness exam through VCA Animal Hospitals -$25 gift voucher from our friends at My Pet Market For more information about me or to schedule a meet and greet appointment, please complete an adoption questionnaire.

Story
Jameson has been with us a year now and we are still struggling to find the right home for this sweet boy, who is so endearing and very adoptable! Jameson was saved from the e-list at MCACC where he was listed for being too scared. One of the first things we learned about Jameson after he arrived is that he actually survived distemper as a puppy. This is a VERY rare disease to survive, so this lucky boy has cheated death twice now! His teeth are a little worse than normal for his age (typical of distemper survivors) and he has some minor neurological traits that are remnants of the disease. For example, his tongue sticks out a little bit, and he can struggle with walking up stairs – though not for lack of trying! Jameson is a very lovable, goofy boy with so much personality. He is more high-energy and loves to play with other dogs and to chase lizards in his yard. He does well with the other large dogs and he likes running up and down the fence with his neighbors’ smaller dog – he may be ok in a home with small dogs, but we haven’t tested a play date yet. He loves walks and walks very well with minimal pulling. He has not shown any desire to escape his fenced-in yard and his foster says he even has great recall, which is more rare for a husky. He does fine in a crate but will whine as he does not like to be confined to that small space. With a yard he is very independent and can keep himself busy. Jameson has some minor resource-guarding issues with treats that have improved leaps and bounds since he came to us. He had just one resource-guarding bite, and after this we sent him to a board and train program. He has not had a single incident since then, and with warning from his foster will allow her to take things from him with no issues now! Jameson loves food and treats, so positive reinforcement works great for him. His trainer left us with some very helpful notes on him at the conclusion of his training: Jameson is a super sweet and funny boy that tries to do things right. His future owner just needs to be patient because the neurological damage is definitely a bit of a handicap at times. I know Jameson knows the commands but I do give him time to put his body in the right, most comfortable position. So, he might not fall down the instant I ask him to lay down or sit but he is obeying and I can tell he tries. He gets distracted easily but all it takes it a little reminder, a second command, and he is back in business. Jameson has never tried to be a brat or very sassy. Jameson is very affectionate and loves to cuddle up on you once he gets to know you. He has done well around teenagers in his foster home and new strangers. He’s also talkative and loves to sings the husky song, especially around people and cars. He needs someone who is active but also patient. He’s a very good boy but just needs someone who is willing to understand and work with him. A home with one or more other active dogs would be ideal an outlet for his energy. If you’re looking for a sweet, fun-loving adventure buddy, Jameson is your guy! https://azhuskyrescue.com/adoption-application/

Story
We pulled Blue from the e-list at MCACC back in June 2024. Blue was overwhelmed when being captured as a stray and did not do well in the shelter like many huskies and was e-listed as a result. Fortunately, we’ve had a lot of time to get to know this happy, goofy guy and he is such a friendly boy now that he’s decompressed and had time to adjust! Blue has been in multiple different foster homes with us, through no fault of his own - he’s just been with us for a long time and it’s sometimes hard for fosters to commit to keeping an extra dog for that long. His fosters have all loved having him but he is now sadly in boarding and we would love to at least get a new foster for him, if we can’t find an adopter! He has warmed up quickly very quickly in every foster home he’s been in, too! He can be very affectionate and loves to cuddle with humans. He’s a bit on the higher energy side and may jump up when he first sees you too. He’s also been great with other dogs, and is very playful with other high-energy dogs, though he’ll also chill with others that just want to hang out. He can be a talkative boy at times in true husky form. Blue loves to play fetch with tennis balls, and in one of his foster homes did show a tendency to hoard and guard toys from other dogs, though in his next foster home we saw that this had improved greatly. We would recommend taking some care with toys initially as he adjusts to a new home with new dogs, but don’t expect serious issues since he has shown so much improvement over time! We haven’t had him around small dogs or cats. Blue has had resource guarding issues with food from humans in the past, but this has pretty much dissipated thanks to the work of one of his fosters! We want to make sure any adopter is aware of this in his past in case it pops back up and some reinforcement training is needed. We are recommending a home with no young kids – teens and older should be ok! He just needs a family that understands high energy needs and understands typically dog behavior and signals. He is a really happy, friendly and loving boy otherwise! He’s been looking for a home for so long - please share to help us find this boy his family! https://azhuskyrescue.com/adoption-application/

Story
Meet Dominic! This 2-year-old male husky/malamute mix was rescued from MCACC’s e-list after spending 4 months at the shelter and suffering from kennel stress. We were thankfully able to get Dominic out of the shelter and safely into a foster home. Since joining us , this sweet guy has also completed a board and train program and returned to his original foster, showing so much improvement. He's truly ready for his forever home! Dom initially struggled with some separation anxiety when he first came to his foster home out of the shelter. It took him a while to decompress - he had spent 4 months straight in the shelter before joining us - but now that he knows he isn't going back, he is doing so much better! Dom's foster says that his initial separation anxiety is completely gone, and that he does well while she is at work. She describes him as a very happy and well-adjusted boy. One thing that has remained consistent for Dom is that he is good with other dogs. His foster says that he does well with every other dog he meets, large and small, and has even described his play style as more submissive with some other pups! He shares toys well and can sit and take treats around others with no problems. Although he certainly had some insecurities to work through at his board and train, issues with other dogs was never on the list! When we first got Dom, he was a little more selective with some touch and with being leashed - we've found this happens with many of the dogs we intake from the shelter who have been snared. In the months since he joined us (July of 2024!) he has come so incredibly far that it's hard to believe this is the same dog! Our trainer was thankfully able to work through some of these issues with him and re-establish trust in humans. Dom's foster takes him on many outings to continue to grow this trust and work on socialization. He loves every human he meets these days. Our foster has said that that any behavioral difficulties now are no different than handling any other dog that doesn't want to do something - he will vocalize to let you know if he doesn't like it instead of lashing out. He does have an e-collar from his training and she can give more details on the best way to use this with him - she said she doesn't even need to use vibrate 90% of the time he responds so well to vocal commands alone. His foster believes a home with older children would be ok for him; he just doesn't know his size. She describes him as medium energy. He does well in his crate when needed, but thrives with a good mix of walks and lounging. He also cannot be in a home with cats since he does show prey drive towards them - he is good with small dogs, just no cats. The ideal home for Dominic will continue to work with him on the positive reinforcement he's received through his training, and help him continue to trust people and grow in the long run. He's already starting to live up to his potential, and we know his forever home is out there! Please fill out the adoption application on our website to meet Dom.

Story
Meet Tarkin! He came to us from MCACC where he found himself on the E-List for testing positive for tick fever—a very treatable condition that Tarkin already began treatment for in the shelter. We are so excited to share that he has since successfully completed this treatment successfully in his foster home, and is available for adoption! During our evaluation, Tarkin appeared uncomfortable and overcome with sadness in the kennel. With some persistence, he got up and gave us some slow tail wags looking for attention. Tarkin is such a sweet boy who is getting the second chance he deserves. Tarkin has a smooth adjustment to his foster home. He is a very relaxed and low energy dog who loves to show affection. Even with his low energy he still plays some catch and loves to chew on his toys. Tarkin will always accept some good ear scratches any time they are offered. He is house trained and knows how to use a doggy door, although he is known to infrequently commit some marking behaviors. Tarkin does have some common husky habits such as counter surfing and trash diving. Tarkin would do well in a variety of different homes: active, quiet, loud, you name it! He himself is low energy, but he is unbothered by the high energy of his current 5 dog, and 2 children filled foster home. He does enjoy the company of the dogs in his foster home, so we believe he would love to have another doggy sibling. Tarkin is so gentle and cautious around the kids that we believe he would do well with all ages. Tarkin has not interacted with any cats, so we do not know how he would do, but he has shown incredible patience with the other animals in his home.

Story
Opal is a beautiful 4-year-old female husky shepherd mix. She was e-listed at MCACC for having a prey drive towards cats, noted when she was adopted and returned. She originally came to the shelter with another husky mix who was adopted separately. We were able to find a foster for her initially and get her to safety, however she is now in boarding and really needs a new foster home! Opal had a few initial adjustment issues in her foster home, but settled in pretty quickly. She started using the doggy door right away and loved sunbathing on the patio. She is such a smart girl and will grab a leash when she is ready for a walk. She will also grab the bag of dog treats off the counter when she feels like she deserves one if you don't keep your eye on her! Opal absolutely loves playing with toys and fetch. And if you truly want to be her friend, give her a pup cup and she will love you forever. She just adores humans and will melt into pets and affection. Although Opal was brought into the shelter with another husky, she did have some issues with the other dog in her initial foster home prior to landing in boarding. In this first foster home, Opal really didn't want to share the human affection with the other dog.  She either needs a very specific home with another dog with just the right personality to match hers (she came in with another dog that she seemed to have lived with for a while initially), or she would do very well as an only dog soaking up all the attention. Opal does get some separation anxiety when she knows she is about to be left alone and will jump and become clingy. She will also jump up when excited, sometimes try to sneak out the front door with you, and dig in the backyard if anxious. Many of these things are very common for a husky, and we would expect some of the anxious behavior to dissipate as she settles and realizes she is safe in a home for good. Crates are not Opal’s favorite, but crate-training may be beneficial for her. She was able to get out of the foster's yard when left alone with dog-door access during the day in her first foster home, though she did so by digging under the gate and not by jumping. Her original foster said that Opal was quirky and playful but also more on the mellow side for a husky. She was a very joyful pup while with her, and has so much love to give. The ideal home for Opal would be with a family who can give her all the love and attention she needs. She would do well in a home with a young active adult or family. She would do great as a single dog, though we think she would be ok with dogs that are more aloof / less needy with humans. Opal would also do well in a home with older children. No cats, she has a high prey drive. If you would like to take this sweet girl home, please fill out our adoption application! https://azhuskyrescue.com/adoption-application/

This is Tia! A sweet, friendly 1 year old female Husky mix who found herself E-Listed at MCACC for kennel stress. After many months at the shelter, she had reached a point where the environment was just too much, and she wanted out. When we met Tia, she showed us how playful she could be and just how eager she is to learn. It appeared Tia had typical Husky energy, and wasn’t getting any of her physical or mental needs met in the shelter environment.  After finding a foster home for her, Tia has shown us what a sweet girl she is in a thriving environment. Tia adjusted well to her foster home, learning to use the dog door within a few days and quickly catching on to the daily routine. With her high husky energy, Tia does like to jump up on people to greet them. However, she has shown that she responds well to correction and with her willingness to learn, consistent training could curb this behavior.  With her energy needs constantly being met, Tia has not shown any destructive behavior in her foster home. She is well behaved in her crate where she currently eats her meals and spends the night. Tia is always ready for a walk and has very good leash manners with minimal leash pulling. When at home, Tia can be found playing fetch with her favorite tennis ball, chowing down on some treats, or cuddling up for a good belly rub. Tia would do best in an active home that will give her outlets for her high energy. She is currently in a foster home with other large dogs and is having an absolute blast. Having some playful dogs in her new home would definitely be a plus. We do have notes that Tia has a history of killing chickens (not uncommon at all, as our husky-lovers know), and because of this we would avoid cats as we do not know how she would act. She has been very sweet to all humans, but with her higher energy we would not recommend younger children (usually under 7 years old). If you think this friendly girl would make a great addition to your home, fill out an application to meet Tia! https://azhuskyrescue.com/adoption-application/
