What am I?

Spayed female Siberian husky

Colors:

Red & white, bi-eyed (one blue eye, one brown eye)

Weight:

35 pounds (as of 3/31/2022)

Experience with Children:

Pet Harbor was told I lived with children ages 3 and up & was great with them. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have met children up to age 8. I have been great with them.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor was told I am good with cats. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have not yet been introduced to cats. When more information is learned, it will be posted here. Siberian huskies tend to have a strong prey instinct and often show extreme, even fatal, aggression towards cats. Even if Pet Harbor’s evaluation is favorable, it may not translate to all cats under all circumstances.

Pet Harbor was told I am good with dogs. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been very playful with all dogs I’ve met. They’ve all been Siberian husky-sized.

Energy Level:

Medium

Owner Aptitude Level:

Young Northern breed experience preferred

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Michael Matthew Miller.

History:

Because the family house burned down and the new home did not allow me, my family put me in an animal shelter. So I lost my home, then my family. From there, I came to Pet Harbor.

Movies:

Coming soon.

More About Me: Information coming soon!

I went to my forever home on August 20, 2022!

Age:

Birthday:

October 24, 2018

What am I?

Neutered male Siberian husky

Colors:

White, blue eyes

Weight:

65 pounds (as of 5/12/2022)

Experience with Children:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have met children of all ages. I have been great with them all.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. On 5/7/2022, I was initially introduced to cats. I sniffed a few times and walked away each time. But when kitty ran, I maintained a focus on kitty. On 5/12/2022, Pet Harbor again introduced me to kitties. There was mutual admiration. Siberian huskies tend to have a strong prey instinct and often show extreme, even fatal, aggression towards cats. Even if Pet Harbor’s evaluation is favorable, it may not translate to all cats under all circumstances.

Experience with Dogs:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with dogs. In my shelter evaluation, I did well with another male dog. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have ruffled my feathers a few times with other male Siberians but other than that have been fine with all dogs I’ve met.

Energy Level:

High

Owner Aptitude Level:

Young Northern breed experience preferred

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Peter Anton Klein.

History:

Running at large, I landed in a county shelter. From there, I came to Pet Harbor. I was microchipped. The person who held my microchip registration was contacted but did not redeem me. It makes no sense to anybody who meets me.

More About Me: Ready? Set! Action! Let’s roll! I’m not about to sideline. I’m in the center of the action. Heck, I am the center of action. I love to play rough and tumble with the boy in my foster home. I get so excited to see him, and he eats that up! I’ve also been super obedient in my foster home. You can see these things in my videos. The folks at the animal shelter from which I came pushed hard to get rescue to take me because they saw what a fantastic boy I am. At my foster home, I get to go to the bus stop and the ballfield with children, and that’s great! I enjoy playing ball with my foster boy. I have been polite, only getting on furniture by request. I’ve also been a big-time cuddler in my foster home. My foster family has a cool nickname for me. They call me a land cloud! Isn’t that cool? Someone in my past life took good care of me except for the heartworm disease I had. It’s so easy to prevent. Why they didn’t bother is strange. I am a really good boy.

I went to my forever home on May 8, 2022!

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Eustace R. Bacchus.

History:

My human died. Then I went to live with a family member. Then I went to live with another family member. Then I killed her chickens and ducks, she said, which didn’t make sense because I play with and sleep with my buddy the goat. I ultimately ended up at Pet Harbor.

Movies:

Coming soon.

Experience with Children:

On 3/19/2022, I was introduced to cats and showed an intense interest. On 3/20/2022, I was again introduced to cats. I did try to bite the kitty. Don’t worry. Kitty wasn’t harmed, but we did learn kitties cannot safely live in my home.

Pet Harbor does not know my history with dogs. When introduced to dogs at the shelter, my interaction was fine. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been fine with all dogs I have met, usually enticing play.

More About Me: I’m a young Siberian. I am as sweet as I can possibly be, I am into everything, and I don’t listen. It’s a vicious cycle. I don’t listen, I get into trouble, and then ignore your reprimands or corrections. My favorite place is on my back while you scratch my belly, but when your back is turned, my second favorite place is in the trashcan. You fill it. I empty it. Teamwork. In my foster home, my preference is to sleep under the bed, but when you get up and plant your feet on the floor, my nose comes out between them. I’d hate to miss any kiss opportunities. I love people. I will jump on the sofa if allowed and snuggle up. I pick the seat closest to a human.

Oh, and a bonus about me – I fetch! Toss a toy. I’ll bring it back and place it in your hand. Most of the time, I actually do this. Of course, I am a Siberian. So it’s not 100% but close! So why would someone not want to adopt me when they get a bonus with the whole package?

We ended early. See you next time!

I went to my forever home on March 26, 2022!

Age:

7 months old

Birthday:

August 24, 2021

What am I?

Neutered male Siberian husky

Colors:

Black & white, brown eyes

Weight:

40 pounds (as of 3/21/2022)

Experience with Children:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have met children up to age 9. I have been fine with them. I am a puppy. So I’m like a child myself.

Experience with Cats:

If Pet Harbor is able to introduce me to cats, the information learned will be posted here. Siberian huskies tend to have a strong prey instinct and often show extreme, even fatal, aggression towards cats. Even if Pet Harbor’s evaluation is favorable, it may not translate to all cats under all circumstances.

Experience with Dogs:

When I was introduced to dogs at the shelter prior to coming to Pet Harbor, my interaction was fine. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been very playful with all other dogs.

Energy Level:

High

Owner Aptitude Level:

Young Northern breed experience preferred

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Timothy Brian Higgins.

History:

Running at large, I found myself in a county shelter. Because I have a microchip, my owner was located, but my owner indicated she had given me away because she lived in an apartment, and Siberian husky puppies and apartments are not a good combination. No other owner was located. So I came to Pet Harbor.

More About Me: The best dogs are those with an occupation. I have an occupation. Well, it’s really a career because I plan to do it throughout my life. I am a storm cleaner. So when branches fall from the trees or sky as it appears to me, I feel as if I’ve struck gold. Those branches, twigs, and limbs are my treasures. I carry them in my mouth all the time, until I decide to pulverize them. It’s called recycling. It’s good for the environment. Maybe I’ll call my company Green Higgins. Wait. What about Green Eggs and Ham? That sounds delicious. Oh, that’s already taken. Heck. Who needs a name anyway? If you look at my picture, I am always smiling. And, by the way, I am a puppy and all that entails. Back to my smiles. I’m either always carrying a stick or a smile. But if you look really closely at a picture or video of me with a stick, maybe, just maybe, you will see sometimes I do both. Amazing, huh? Are you my amazing new family?

I went to my forever home on February 27, 2022!

Age (approx):

Birthday (approx):

December 3, 2021

What am I?

Neutered male Siberian husky

Colors:

Black & white, one blue eye, one parti eye (both blue & brown in the same eye)

Weight:

15 pounds (as of 2/11/22)

Experience with Children:

I have been great with all children I’ve met. I’m one of them.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not place young puppies to live with cats because Siberian huskies commonly are not cat-friendly as they age. To homes where cats live, Pet Harbor only places older Siberian huskies who have been introduced to cats and shown a positive reaction to them.

Experience with Dogs:

When I was introduced to dogs at the shelter, my interaction was fine. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been very playful with all other dogs.

Energy Level:

High

Owner Aptitude Level:

Young Northern breed experience preferred

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Gregory Kamal Bruno Watchler.

History:

I was turned into a shelter by my owner because a neighbor dog attacked me and my owner decided rather than pay for medical care, it was easier just to put me in a shelter and let someone else do it. From there, I came to Pet Harbor.

Movies:

Coming soon!

Age:

1-1/2 years old

Birthday:

August 29, 2020

What am I?

Neutered male Siberian husky

Colors:

Black & white, blue eyes

Weight:

55 pounds (as of 2/8/22)

Experience with Children:

Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have met children up to age 8. I have been great with them. I especially like that they like to play with toys with me.

Experience with Cats:

On 2/26/2022, Pet Harbor introduced me to cats. I immediately went into a stiffened and focused posture. So Pet Harbor ended the test and would assume I would harm kitties.

Experience with Dogs:

When I was introduced to dogs at the shelter before coming to Pet Harbor, my interaction was fine. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I seem to be the one who is picked on. I just want to be friends with everybody, but they don’t always want to be friends with me. So I stay away when that happens. I do not like when other dogs come up to my crate door, though.

Energy Level:

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Myrna T. Maldonado-Agosto.

History:

More About Me: My first foster mom called me Agosto Galoot. I’m a big, goofy galoot who gives slobbery kisses. I’m tall and lanky, need some groceries, and love people. That really describes all there is to me. I’m a happy boy, easy and clumsy, but I’m good, too, not a bad boy like some clumsy oafs. My second foster mom nicknamed me Gus, which is a fitting name for me. As for dogs, I seem to like playing with them, but, really, I prefer people and above people, maybe even toys. I like people so much I go out of my way to make sure they greet me. Like a politician, I have to kiss all the babies, but since I’m not a politician, I don’t stop there. I have to kiss all the people, and I do not discriminate! I’m an easy keeper. In fact, if you don’t do laundry enough, I will be a good boy and remind you by depositing articles of clothing throughout the house!
