Story
Husky lovers, do we have a perfect mini husky for you! Luke is an all around amazing, lovable, adventurous boy. He's a lover boy and is the perfect mix of lover boy and fun. Luke sometimes even believes he's a lap dog and will try to sit in your lap for cuddles if you let him. One thing that is super unique and special about Luke are his eyes. He has these beautiful icy blue eyes that are also brown that really twinkle in the sunlight. Yet another thing that Luke has a perfect combination of.
Watch his video and fall in love with his personality: https://youtu.be/2V6-TbK5d3Y?si=AjhBaU4eolmanNbn
Luke is a husky mix approximately 2 years old and currently weighs 46 lbs. He is more on the petite side too making him the perfect size! Not too big and not too small, he's perfectly in the middle. He is a rescue dog and with any rescue, it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age.
Luke is very dog friendly and did great meeting all of the dogs we introduced him too. He is also fostered with 5 other dogs all with different personalities and sizes. Some of his foster siblings are as small as 25 lbs and he is great with them too. Luke loves to play and one of this favorite games is to play chase! The way he romps around the yard with other dogs, hoping and bouncing around engaging them in play is by far one of the cutest things about him. He's isn't all about play all the time either, he is perfectly content hangout out with other dogs and exploring all the smells with them. Luke will try to get other dogs to play with him and will try a few times just to be 100% certain they don't want to play with him LOL and then once he's fully confident they don't want to play, he'll go off and do his own thing or find a new friend to play with. He would do best in a home with other moderately playful dog(s) like him that enjoy playing chase and also enjoy just hanging out as well. A happy medium of playful and calm is a perfect match for Luke. He is also very cat friendly and is currently fostered with a cat in home and met our house cat Biggie. Luke does try to play with the cats in the home and tried to play with Biggie, but is very respectful when a cat swats at him and respects those boundaries. With slow and proper introductions, Luke will be a great addition to a home with dog-friendly kitties.
Luke is a smart boy that is treat motivated and loves to please his people. He already knows how to sit and will even sit automatically sometimes with out you even asking him to. He walks well on a leash, only pulling every now and then out of excitement. It does not take much to correct him either, a simply leash correction is all it takes to remind him that he needs to be walking like a gentle king on leash. We can see him being a great hiking or adventure buddy and there's a good possibility he's going to love snow too! Luke has a balanced energy about him and is really good about matching whatever you need him to be. Want to go on a hike, light run, walk around the neighborhood? Luke will be your outdoorsy bestie. Want to relax and have a chill day? Luke will find a cozy spot to lay down and be your cuddly king. He's the best of both worlds! He also has great house manners and is crate trained and potty trained. We also believe that he would do best in a home with a backyard rather than an apartment.
We are willing to test Luke with anything you need us to in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!
You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.
Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!
Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.
While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:

Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!
Follow our rescue journey and connect with us on our website and social media platforms. Together, we can make a difference, one adoption at a time.
