More About Me: First, I need a family who will understand me. My history should give you an indication of how special I am. Then there is the fact that I have one ear. I hear just fine, thank you. How did I lose my ear? Well, that is certainly the $64,000 question. My rescuers were told a wild animal, like a bear or coyote, took it. The vet agreed that is how it looks. Pet Harbor believes it odd that a wild animal would take just one ear and be done. It really doesn’t matter. It’s gone, and it is part of my charm. So here I was chained and having lost an ear and living in a doghouse that was bee-infested. And I was only ONE year old. Thankfully Dogs Deserve Better Blue Ridge rescued me before I had to spend a long life that way. DDB transferred me to Pet Harbor because I am, well, a Siberian Husky. The first couple of days at Pet Harbor, I was painfully shy, afraid of everybody and everything. After a few days, I transitioned. Now I am everybody’s best friend. I run and play and jump and give & get affection. My socialization never happened. So my interactions with others sometimes is awkward. It is important my new family understands me. They have to allow me adjustment time. After I get through those days, I will reward them in spades or maybe soft slurps. So if you are a special person ready for a special girl, I’m ready for you.

More About Me: I’m a hippie. Just because I wasn’t born in the 1970s doesn’t mean I can’t be a hippie. History does repeat itself, you know. I can pass out flowers and love with the best of them. Cool, man, cool. I’m a follower, not a leader. I’m a big galoot, but I also listen really well. And, like many hippies, I’m an absolute sweetheart. So how about it? Don’t worry! Be happy! Be happy with Roger!

More About Me: Ants. Yes, ants. I have ants in my pants. Sitting still is certainly not in my repertoire. Who wants a statue husky? That would be beneath me! Causing trouble, on the other hand, is not beneath me! If it exists, it’s an invitation, right? I can get into it? Right? Furniture, countertops, shelves, etc., are not obstacles. These are things to explore and climb. Everyone knows that that’s where you find the best stuff to play with. And nothing will hold me. I can and do chew my way through everything. After all, I am a Siberian Husky puppy, and isn’t that what you expect from a Siberian Husky puppy? Besides, exercise is good. Everything needs exercised. No toy, leash, or shoe gets a reprieve from my “exercising” it! A typical day for me starts off by waking up for sunrise wrestling practice with my favorite Uncle Parker followed by nonstop cycles of eating, napping, and more playing. About my shyness/fear, with a bit of work (attention, love, training, continuing what my foster parents have started), I am going to be a fantastic dog. I am significantly more comfortable and at ease outside in the yard than in the house. For instance, outside, a set of steps doesn’t need a second thought. Inside, however, a staircase requires careful consideration and caution. Likewise, people in the yard are probably friendly, but inside the house, that same person might be dangerous and should not be immediately trusted. I am fairly vocal. The more comfortable I get, the more increasingly quick I am to bark or howl my little head off to let you know when I am unhappy or need more chewies. I take all of my cues from Uncle Parker (also available for adoption). So if you get him to do something you want him to do, I am usually quick to follow suit. The best home for me will have at least one other dog around my size or adopt Uncle Parker, too! One more thing – I am a foodie and haven’t met a treat yet that I don’t like. Luckily for me (teehee), Uncle Parker usually drops any treats he is offered. So I have learned to scoop in quickly and snag them for myself. Oh, one last thing. I like “dens.” I like to crawl into tight spaces to explore, hide, play, etc., but I can do without those things humans call crates. So if you are looking for a puppy who is animated, needs a bit of work, and will reward you in spades, I’m your gal!
