Story
Bo will need a home that is super patient and willing to give him time to decompress.  You will also have to come to the shelter more than once to visit with him. He is fine with our staff but takes time to warm up to ALL new people.  He reacts ok to some dogs but MUST meet and new housemates.  He was in a home prior to coming here, for a short time, and they said he would growl at their children from time to time (which is why they brought him to us).  So we suggest NO children.   Anyone interested in meeting him MUST come to the shelter and complete an application if you decide you would like to be considered.   ***better photos will be posted soon Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt.

Story
Duchess is a 5 year old, 42lb husky who came to CHA from one of our partner shelters. Duchess is a survivor, as she was diagnosed with heartworm when she arrived at our shelter. Now, thanks to the efforts of our veterinary staff, she is officially heartworm free! Duchess is a very social girl who always greets her caretakers in the morning with bright eyes and a wagging tail. She loves going for long walks and is very well-behaved on leash, and would make the perfect hiking buddy! Duchess is a husky, and like all huskies she displays an elevated prey drive and high energy levels so she will need a forever home that is willing to accommodate those factors. If you are looking for a friendly and energetic girl to fill your life with tail wags and cuddles, come out and meet Duchess today!
