Story
Loki is a purebred Akita, almost 3 years old come March. We got him as a puppy. Loki is good with cats and children. We are uncertain how he is around other dogs than the one other we have in our home. Loki attended Art of the Dog's 3 week board and train program. He uses an e-collar to help maintain and correct his behaviors. So Loki's adopter would need to be okay with that. He is neutered and has no health problems. Loki is a dominant dog (alpha) and would do best in a home where the family understands his needs and breed. We love Loki but we need to rehome him because we are moving due to a job and the housing community we will be moving into does not allow Akitas. He is unsure of meeting new people at first but warms up eventually. Would do best in a home with a fenced in yard.

Story
Simba has spent too long waiting for his forever family. 💔 This strong and spirited Akita-Husky mix is full of energy, loves his toys, and is happiest on long walks or playing with his human. He’s sweet, loyal, and ready for the right home. If you’re looking for a dog with personality and heart, Simba is waiting to meet you! 🐕 Adopt Simba: https://form.jotform.com/221926016430144 Full profile: Simba is a 6-8-year-old Akita-Husky mix with the personality of an Akita and the heart of a lion. He’s playful, sweet, and full of energy but needs a confident and strong adopter who understands his needs. 💪 Strength & Training: Simba is powerful and can pull when excited, so he needs someone physically capable of managing his strength. He’s learning commands like sit, down, paw, and “potty” and thrives with structure. A harness might help with his pulling. 🐾 Energy & Personality: Simba is not always a couch potato! He loves long walks (2+ miles is no problem), playing with his toys, and getting plenty of attention. He’s affectionate and cuddly but always ready for adventure. 🏡 Home Needs: Simba would do best in a home without small children due to his strength and energy. He’s good with other dogs, especially more timid ones, but does best with boundaries around toys and space. He’s also quite the counter-surfer, so keeping things out of reach is key! 🐕 Health: Simba has a thyroid condition that is managed with treatment, giving him renewed energy and playfulness. Simba has had a lot of love and care from his foster, but he’s ready to find his forever home. If you’re looking for a strong, loyal, and playful companion, Simba could be your perfect match. 💙 Ready to meet Simba? Apply to adopt him and give this big-hearted boy the home he deserves. 📌 Share to help Simba find his forever home Currently being cared in Southern California, but can be transported up to northern states, such as Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and anywhere within the US continental, if a great suitable family is willing to adopt him.

Story
Going through a divorce and trying to care for Nyko and my baby is a struggle all by myself. Nyko is a very loving and loyal pet. He is very friendly and gets a ton of attention from everyone when we go out. He loves his walks and lives for snowy days! He is a great indoor pet and just relaxes all day. Even with his size, he does well in small homes and apartments. Outside he loves to play in the snow, play fetch, and play with any type of ball. He can not be off-leash unless enclosed in a backyard. He does not get along with other animals and will be aggressive. He’s friendly with people and will do best with a small family. Too many children or people in the family will make him anxious. His ideal owner is a single owner or couple who can physically take him on at least 2 walks per day.

Story
Highlights:needs another more confident dog in the homeMeet Indy – A Gentle Puppy Looking for a Patient HomeIndy is a sweet and timid puppy who is still learning to trust the world around her. She may be shy at first, but her love for other dogs shines through. When she`s with canine friends, Indy shows a more confident and playful side, making it clear that she would benefit from having another confident dog in the home to help guide her as she continues to grow.Indy is still working on building trust with people and isn’t quite ready to come up for pets just yet. However, she’s making progress by learning to take treats from a gentle hand and slowly discovering that humans can be a source of comfort and kindness.With time, patience, and the companionship of a confident dog, Indy has the potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. She needs a quiet, understanding home that will give her the space and encouragement to come out of her shell at her own pace.Before being rescued, many of our dogs have had limited socialization, so they may need a bit of time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog`s individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website.

Story
I need a home for my love, I need an younger athletic couple that like to jog, hike, spend lots of time outdoors. That don't smoke. He is a husky mix. With what I don't know but he is the sweetest cutest dog in the world.. He's 115 pounds. He is healthy & up to date on all of his shots. Oh one thing you need to know, he's a very quiet husky he doesn't talk like other Huskies I tried to get him to do it but he won't just to let you know. So, this is the hardest thing I've had to do in my life. I've been fighting this cancer for 4 years but it's gone to my brain and it's has won. They tell me I only have about four more months so please if you're interested in Sequoia let me know so I can get him in a home where he's loved and with people who love him. any more questions don't hesitate to ask and please.. 303-229-9251 main cell..

Story
Farley is a sweetheart and loves kids. He need a good loving home where he can get the love attention he deserves asap. He has become very aggressive with the other two dogs and recently broke into the chicken run and killed all our chickens. I can no longer provide a home for him nor can I risk him seriously injuring my other two small/med sized dogs.

Story
Zoey is a loveable 13 year old Husky that has been with me since she was a puppy. My husband and I got her in Texas from a a breeder in 2011 and has been a lovely companion and my best friend since day 1. Zoey was born with incontinence and has had several surgeries to try and correct the issue, but none have been successful, so she will need an experienced and patient new owner who can handle her needs. She gets along with everyone from new people all the way to cats and kids. She will welcome you with loving kisses as soon as you walk through the door and will be by your side like a little shadow. Zoey is house trained, but is also used to wearing diapers for her incontinence in the house as well. She does well on walks and is very curious and stops to smell all of the flowers. She has also been crate trained since she was a puppy, as she can be a little terror when left alone for too long. No history of biting. My husband and I have recently separated and it’s hard for just myself.
