Emmie – Alaskan Husky/Chocolate Lab mix
Age of dog: 9 months old
Sex: female
Eye color: brown
Good with other dogs? She's timid, the other dogs in her foster home are much bigger than she is, but they will try introducing her to them one at a time
Good with cats? unknown
Good with kids? yes
Energy Level? high - she has puppy power!
Emmie is a very sweet little girl. Her previous owners could not keep her because she was going to be over the weight limit at their apartment complex. We're not sure how much socialization she's had. She was really scared when she was introduced to some of the other dogs in her foster home, so they will try again later, one on one. Emmie is very affectionate and loves to be in people's laps. Emmie just came into foster care on Friday, so check back for more information. If you would like more information about Emmie, please email her foster home.

MagicSiberian Husky
Age: about 14 yrs
Gender: spayed female
Eye color: Brown
Good with other dogs? Best as an only dog
Good with cats? Probably not
Good with kids? Yes
Energy Level? Low to moderate
Magic is a very dear and happy senior Siberian Husky. We estimate her age to be about 14, so we are hoping to find a home who is prepared to love her, but also be prepared to not have her for very long. She does “leak” urine…both in her sleep and as she walks around her house. The medicine that the vet provided for this problem makes Magic’s stomach upset so her foster home has stopped giving it to her and is just careful to clean up the dribbles. Her arthritis is fairly advanced and she definitely needs help by being carried up and down steps if there are
more than 2 to tackle. Her gait is slow but steady and she LOVES to go for frequent walks during the day. She stops often to smell and explore giving her human a lesson in life. “Life is a journey and each step along the way is more important than the destination”. She meets new dogs with a playful disposition, but she is unable to engage in active play due to her age. We are not quite sure how she is with cats, but we think she would curiously sniff them and walk away. She may attempt to take chase, but certainly would not be able to catch any! Magic does not need a fenced yard, but does need to be leashed at all times. She attempts to chase cars and could seriously get hurt if not leashed. She also is forgetful of her whereabouts at times and could easily get lost. I think they call this “Dogsheimers”. Although the urine can be a problem for some people, it really is very easy to care for and the gentle love that Magic will share with you will be well worth the effort. We are hoping to find a retired or semi-retired person who is looking for a companion in whom to enjoy each day.If you would like more information about Magic, please email her foster home.

Finn - Husky/Samoyed mix
Age of dog: 2 years old
Sex: Male
Eye color: Blue
Good with other dogs? yes, he plays very well with his foster siblings
Good with cats? Unknown
Good with kids? Unknown
Energy level? High
Finn is a very sweet boy. He loves to cuddle and enjoys getting belly rubs. He is pretty good on leash. His previous owners took him to 'obedience' school so he understands basic commands. His foster parents are continuing to work with him to reinforce his training. He needs a home with a solid 6 ft fence and a family that will provide him tons of exercise.
Finn had some bad habits when he first came to his foster home. However, over time, he has become part of the family. Because of his high energy, Finn needs a home with experienced dog owners, preferably with northern breeds. As long as his owners are firm with his boundaries, Finn will continue to progress. Under these conditions in his foster home, Finn has truly become a wonderful pet.
Lucy - Siberian Husky (on hold)
Age: 2 to 3 years old
Sex: female
Eye Color: One blue; one parti-eye
Good with other dogs: Yes, as long as they aren't too close to the puppies
Good with cats: Unknown
Good with kids: A bit timid but will warm up after a little time
Energy Level: Not very high but that could change after nursing the pups is over
Lucy was rescued from a puppy mill along with Desi (her mate) and Tresa (her daughter), and came to us ready to give birth. Her pups were born on Oct 21st and are doing fine. According to our vet, it took all her strength to give birth and to care for her puppies, as she was about 30 pounds underweight. As you can see she is very skinny. Lucy has been a fantastic mom to her pups, and is very good about letting people handle her babies. She is very timid but will warm up after spending time with you. If you would like more information about Lucy, please email her foster home.
Lucy needs to gain about 30 pounds. Once she is finished nursing her pups, she needs to be treated for worms and Lyme disease. Once she is healthy, she will be spayed. Can you help by making a donation for her care?
