 Loki
|
|
About Me :
|
This timid, petite young lady was a stray who fell into the kind hands of a good samaritan family. When she came into our program, we discovered some health issues which are carefully being monitored. Loki is spayed and up to date on all of her shots but has had several mild seizures. The vet and her foster mom have chosen not to place her on medication immediately due to the mild nature and continued improvement in the frequency of the seizure activity.
Loki is very cautious when she first meets you. But once you’ve passed her inspection she’ll shower you with husky kisses!
This young lady was probably a house dog in that she is crate trained and house trained. She often prefers to nap in her crate so the door is left open at all times, even when her fosters are not at home.
Loki is very intelligent and learns quickly. She will "sit" and "wait" at mealtime until given the "OK" command to eat.
She walks well on leash and does not pull. She is VERY interested in birds and small animals however, so her new home should not have cats or small critters. Loki’s adopter will have to be experienced with the breed and she will also need a canine companion since she has some separation anxiety when left alone even for a sort time. She is "picky" about her doggie friends but does socializes well with most other dogs. She recently met a new male that was brought into the program when he stayed with us for several hours during his transport. By the time he left she had tried everything to initiate play. The male only played for a short time and was more interested in kissing her face and ears. She didn’t resist.
In her previous home the furniture must have been off limits because she is very careful not to jump up unless she is invited. Someone also taught Loki how to be a lady and take treats gently. She does play rough at times and often needs a "time out" to settle.
So far Loki has done well with other dogs she has met and lives with one other Siberian in her foster home.
Interested applicants will talk directly to the foster family for more details.

Dodge- ADOPTION PENDING
|
|
About Me :
|
Dodge is our new 14-16 month old ball of energy. Dodge is a handsome, black and white, blue eyed young boy. He is neutered and microchipped. His previous owner surrendered him due to lack of time for him. Dodge is very playful, and gets along well with other dogs. He is currently in a foster home with other dogs, kids, and a cat. We know he is cat friendly with that cat. Dodge knows basic commands. He is semi crate trained. If you ignore his initial crying, he will then settle down. Dodge loves to go for walks. In the house, he respects baby gates. In a fenced yard, he runs extremely fast but comes to a whistle and calling his name. Dodge would do best in a home where he is left alone for only a few hours. He needs someone who will spend time with him, and exercise him. Dodge is a very nice dog, who just needs some TLC and an owner who will exercise him and train him.

Klondike --- Cat Friendly
|
|
About Me :
|
Klondike is a 60 pound white cotton ball of a male huksy. He’s a charmer with a gentle, relaxed personality.
A family tragedy forced his previous owners to surrender him and his companion, Kodiak, but he made a quick transition in his foster home where he has a female Sibe playmate. He is excellent with her and they just love to lounge curl up next to each other.
Klondike is well-trained and obedient. He doesn’t pull and responds to commands well. He won’t do his business on leash, however, so new owner will require a yard with at least a 6 privacy (not chain link) foot fence (he’s a bit of an escape artist).
Klondike’s a cuddler, likes to sit in your lap with his head in your chest. He’s house broken and crate trained. He’ll let his owner know when he has to go out.
He’s done well at the dog park, but is somewhat leery of other dogs. He and his foster-sister love to run together there.
The only thing that really gets Klondike wound up other than his leash is food: Yours, his, your neighbor’s. He’s a little rough taking treats but will back off with a firm “Gentle!”
All in all, Klondike is a treasure. Besides the fence, a home with a female canine companion would be best.

Luke
|
|
About Me :
|
Imagine a young dog with inadequate shelter, and little food or water? This is the situation that 100 sled dogs found themselves in last year, when their owner fell onto hard economic times. Rescues across the map came to their aid.
Here at DVSHR, we were lucky to get Luke. This sweet dog is shy, but warms up quickly. Because he grew up around so many dogs, social Luke is very dog friendly. He currently plays well with four other dogs in his foster home.
We are just getting to know Luke, however some things are obvious about him. Being a sled dog, Luke’s athleticism is very high. Be prepared to have an outlet for his energy. We do not know if Luke was ever housetrained, however most sled dogs do not get house privileges. We are happy to report that smart Luke is doing extremely well with this training thus far. He is very obedient.
Luke likes to be with his canine friends and snuggle up for belly rubs. We are excited that this lad will finally get the attention and spoiling he deserves.
Luke’s requirement:
Fenced yard 6 ft
At least one canine playmate
All potential adopters will speak directly with the foster family. Look for updates on our new lad Luke.
