What am I?
Spayed female Siberian Husky
Colors:
Black & white, brown eyes
Weight:
38 pounds (as of 4/27/19)
Experience with Children:
Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I’ve met children of all ages. I adore the children in my first foster home, and they adore me. They even locked me with them in the bedroom and locked out their mother!
Experience with Cats:
Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. On 5/8/19, Pet Harbor introduced me to a cat. I promptly tried to eat the kitty. Don’t worry. No kitty was harmed during this testing.
Experience with Dogs:
Pet Harbor does not know my history with dogs. I did well during my dog-dog introduction. When I first came to my foster home, I bared teeth to show the other dogs I was the boss, but I did not react negatively any further than that and that only lasted a day. After that, it has been all good. When other dogs ignore me, I run after them, trying to figure out why they ignored me! Oddly, I seem to follow female dogs more than males. However, after a while in my foster home, things changed again. I seemed to become bossy to other dogs, particularly females, even those I met at PetsMart. All the dogs I have met are 20-80 pounds. Pet Harbor has no information about how I am with smaller dogs. In my current foster home, there are two male Siberians, and you will see in the videos how much I love playing with them.
Energy Level:
Medium-High
Owner Aptitude Level:
Novice
Named for 9/11 Victim:
I was named for David Lawrence Angell.
History:
For the crime of running at large, I found myself in the animal shelter. From there, I came to Pet Harbor Rescue.
Movies:
  1. 4/21/19 – My temperament test, resource guarding
  2. 4/21/19 – My temperament test, toys
  3. 4/21/19 – My temperament test, food bowl (those pesky humans…)
  4. 5/4/19 – Pet me, please!
  5. 6/8/19 – Hi, hooman!
  6. 6/8/19 – I’m the pup of the week!
  7. 8/17/19 – Fake Left!

More About Me: Sweetness. My goal in life is to be petted by everyone. I will walk from person to person to get that petting! And if I’m afraid you’ll leave, I’ll just sit on your feet so you are planted for petting! When I first got to Pet Harbor, I was quiet and easy. Of course, we all know that’s subject to change since, like people, dogs change! So guess what. It didn’t take long for me to become peppy & playful. The sweetness is still there. That’s my core. I am full of love, and I love to give kisses, kisses, and more kisses. In fact, I will leap over whatever is in my way to get to you to shower you with kisses. Dogs, furniture, whatever. They cannot stop me! Where kissing is concerned, I’ve got ballerina leaping skills! And speaking of showers, I’ll let you in on a secret about me. Well, I don’t really think it’s a secret. I love showers. I don’t care who is in the shower. I’m gonna join them. I will open the curtain and climb right in. I’ll drink the water and also stand there and let it flow all over me. Yes, I love water. So are you looking for a super sweet water dog? If so, I’m looking for you!

Age:
3 months old
Birthday:
October 10, 2018
What am I?
Neutered male Siberian Husky
Colors:
Grey & white, blue eyes
Weight:
Info to come
Experience with Children:
I’m a puppy. Great with everything, subject to change as I get older. However, little children aren’t really happy with my puppy teeth, nails, exuberance, and plowing into them. They are, after all, just my size.
Experience with Cats:
Pet Harbor does not place puppies to live with cats because Siberian Huskies commonly are not cat-friendly as they age. In homes with cats, Pet Harbor only places adult Siberian Huskies who have tested cat-friendly.
Experience with Dogs:
I’m a puppy. Great with everything, subject to change as I get older. Older dogs often are not thrilled with my puppiness. They definitely wear out before I do! If you have another dog who will tolerate me, that’s terrific because I love, love, love to play.
Energy Level:
High
Owner Aptitude Level:
Young Northern breed experience required
Named for 9/11 Victim:
I was named for Luke A. Dudek.
History:
Because they said I chew my tail, I was dumped in a county animal shelter. The shelter called Pet Harbor. Since coming to foster care, Pet Harbor has not seen me chew my tail. They’ve seen me chew about everything else except my tail. I am, after all, a puppy, a normal puppy.
Movies:
Coming soon!

 
More About Me: Of course, I am like all the rest of the puppies in the universe. Cute. Cuddly. Love unlimited. Untrained. Full of sharp teeth and nails. Lots of pottying everywhere. Mischievous. Sleepy. Playful. Not a care in the world. Clay to mold. Entertaining. But guess what. Puppies do grow up! Pet Harbor has very strict policies with regard to puppy adoptions to ensure that we have forever homes. If you have applied to adopt from Pet Harbor and gotten approved, that does not mean you are approved to adopt me. You will need to talk to the folks at Pet Harbor about that.

What am I?
Neutered male Siberian Husky
Colors:
Black & white, blue eyes
Weight:
64 pounds (as of 3/9/19)
Experience with Children:
Pet Harbor was told I lived with children up to age 4 before coming to Pet Harbor and that I was playful with them. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have met lots of children of all ages. I shower them with kisses.  Due to my energy level, I can knock down little children, but after I knock them down, I will shower them with kisses.
Experience with Cats:
Pet Harbor was told I have never met a cat. On 12/8, Pet Harbor introduced me to a cat. With hackles up, I barked & lunged. For kitty safety, I cannot live with them.
Experience with Dogs:
Pet Harbor was told I lived with another dog before coming to Pet Harbor. Then in my dog-dog introduction, I was uber excited & attempted to entice play. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been very playful with the other dogs in foster care. They are 20-80 pounds. When I see small dogs at PetsMart, I am fixated, but in my foster home, I have become the caretaker of Dano & Ezra (puppies). I adore them & play with them a lot. You see, I believe I am a puppy, too.
Energy Level:
High
Owner Aptitude Level:
Northern breed experience required
Named for 9/11 Victim:
I was named for Maxima Jean-Pierre.
History:
My owners put me in an animal shelter because I “frequently escaped.” From there, I came to Pet Harbor Rescue. I was adopted from Pet Harbor and returned, citing issues with the other dog.
Movies:
  1. 12/8/18 – Jolly young Maxim & old St. Nick.
  2. 12/8/18 – Let’s dance!
  3. 12/8/18 – Birds of a Feather.
 

More About Me: I’m all about that play, ’bout that play, ’bout that play, no trouble. Well, I’m a young Siberian. So trouble kind of comes with the territory. Full of humor, love, strength, and without trepidation or slowing mechanisms, I am always at the ready to shower people with kisses. In fact, like all good Siberians, I have a job. My job title is Johnny Appleseed. Instead of spreading seeds so new apple trees can grow, I spread kisses and love everywhere so happiness and joy will grow. Funny thing about me – I am so intensely focused on getting affection from humans & giving it back to them, I forget to be a Siberian. I ran out a door in my foster home & started sniffing around. Then my foster sister called my name. Oh, boy! Someone to show & get love. I forgot to run away. I ran right into her arms, jumped up, gave her kisses, and let her grab my collar. Good thing I love love! Another funny thing about me – I adore – ADORE – puppies. I am absolutely enthralled with Ezra & Dano, also available for adoption. But the funny part is when I meet small dogs at PetsMart, I seem to have a fixation on them that concerns the volunteers. See how funny I can be? Siberians generally stay in puppy stage until about age 3. Yep, I’m well within that puppy stage. So if you are ready for loads of laughter, slurpy kisses, and maybe have a canine playmate for me, let’s go home!
