What am I?

Spayed female Siberian husky

Colors:

Black & white, blue eyes

Weight:

28 pounds (as of 4/16/2023)

Experience with Children:

I’m a puppy. Great with everything, subject to change as I get older.

Experience with Cats:

The best choice for a home with cats is an adult Siberian husky who has been introduced to cats and shown a positive reaction to them. All Siberian husky puppies are cat-friendly, but they often are not when they are a few months old.

Experience with Dogs:

I’m a puppy. Great with everything, subject to change as I get older.

Energy Level:

High

Owner Aptitude Level:

Young Northern breed or puppy experience required

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Tatiana Ryjova.

History:

Running at large, I landed in a county shelter. My humans did not come to look for me. I was adopted to someone who was unfamiliar with my breed. For those who love Siberian huskies, Siberian huskies are perfect, but not everyone loves us. Four days later, I was homeless again. So then I came to Pet Harbor.

More About Me: Pet Harbor volunteers always scratch their heads, trying to figure out why dogs are homeless. Here I am a puppy, sweet as can be. My foster mom describes me as about as perfect as a pup can be. I’m a cuddly little girlie. Yet, I was running at large and not reclaimed. Nobody knows why. All they know for sure is it wasn’t my fault. Let me give you a couple of examples. I was so absolutely fantastic at the vet’s office that they covered my ears and told people not to let me know I am a Siberian husky. They wanted me to continue to be angelic. Secondly, I love water. I am SO good that I will just stand there while you bathe me. See what I mean? Perfection. Hopefully my next home is my last and where I am wanted. Is that your home? Are you my new family?

Thank you for the adoption of Clare! We were happy to sponsor her adoption donation in memory of our Siberian Husky Kaya.

Kaya first came into our lives in the beginning of 2013 as a very young (newborn) puppy. From the get- go she was mischievous, stubborn, and in complete control of us! Always a social butterfly, she thought everyone wanted to be her best friend, and never failed to forget what a beauty (read: diva) she was. She never passed up the opportunity to stop in front of a mirror and stare at herself. To say she was the life of the party doesn’t begin to do her personality justice!

As she got older, we cherished her desire to snuggle every night, and her willingness to find new adventures everywhere we went. She was a traveler with us, living in Texas, California, Hawaii, and Virginia. If given the choice, you would find her outside sunbathing or basking in the fresh air on a long walk.

Over the years her nicknames changed constantly, and the last few years we had with her she was more likely to respond to “Fluff” or “Fluffy-Butt” than she was her own name. To us, she will always be our ‘Sunshine” because of her constant smiles and love for life.

We hope Clare’s adopters will cherish the new memories they will make with Clare and find as much joy with her as we did with our sweet Kaya.

I went to my forever home on April 2, 2023!

What am I?

Spayed female Siberian husky

Colors:

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

Weight:

27 pounds (as of 1/9/2023)

Experience with Children:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with children prior to coming to Pet Harbor. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have gravitated towards children. They’re small like I am. I choose to spend most of my time with and sleep with the little girl in my foster home. Because I have shown timidity around adults and not around children, Pet Harbor is requiring my home have at least one child who is at the time of my adoption under age 12.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats prior to coming to Pet Harbor. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been around cats daily and have shown no interest other than sniffing them. Initially, I engaged in a playful chase or two, though my interest wasn’t held long. 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 prior to coming to Pet Harbor. When evaluated at the shelter before coming to Pet Harbor, I was fine with the other female dog I met. When I first came to Pet Harbor, I did a lot of snarling and noisemaking towards other dogs. I gravitated towards the one dog who was close to my size. A few days later, I was and still am fine with all of them, but I do gravitate towards play with the dog closest to my size, who happens to be a female Siberian husky mix. Because of my timidity and the lack thereof with dogs, Pet Harbor is requiring my home have at least one other dog.

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for George Eric Smith.

History:

Running at large, I landed in a county shelter. My humans did not come to look for me. So I came to Pet Harbor.

Movies:

1/15/2023 – Georgi Girl

More About Me: Note: I am not underweight. Some dogs are oversized. Some dogs are just right. I am just undersized, a cute, petite little girly. These pictures don’t show how tiny I really am. The little girl in my foster home calls me “The Little Puppy.” I do have puppy behaviors, and I am tiny. But I am about a year old. Initially, when I have met adult people, I have exhibited a bit of timidity. In fact, when an adult tried to bring me in the house after being outside for a bit, I backed out of my collar. Then the child brought me inside with no issue. When I have met children, I have shown no timidity. I have absolutely been a child’s dog in my foster home. The little girl can walk me on a leash without issue. Other than children, my BFF is a 35-pound female Siberian mix dog. After the first day, I have been great with all dogs I’ve encountered, which helps my socialization. See, I gravitate to the smaller ones, which is good because they adore me, both the children and the smaller dog. I have been gentle and easy and so super sweet to them. The timidity I have for adults hopefully will eventually ease because I have found solace with children and dogs. At least that’s what my foster parents have observed.

I went to my forever home on January 28, 2023!

Weight:

46 pounds (as of 12/9/2022)

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 and have been great with them.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor was told I am great with cats. On Dec 11, 2022, I was introduced to cats by Pet Harbor. I was completely unfazed by them. A different story when it came to bunnies, but the cats I ignored. 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 was told I am great with dogs, including small dogs. The best home for me will have at least one other dog around my size, my new BFF.

More About Me: I have a nickname. It’s Showers. My foster mom says I shower everybody with love and kisses. So she calls me Showers. It makes me think of Rain, and I don’t understand it, but it doesn’t matter what she calls me. I’ll kiss her and love her regardless. I have been great with dogs and cats in my foster home, but I’ll let you in on a little secret. Although I don’t want to live without dogs, the real Valentine for me is people. I am in love with people. Are you my people? Don’t you want Showers?

More About Me: Must. Have. Belly Scratches. So, really, I’m an amazing guy. I have no clue how you could not possibly fall in love with me. The volunteers think I’m super sweet and gentle. In fact, when Pet Harbor was full but a volunteer met me at the shelter, they had to make room for just one more, me, because they feel I am awesome. I am so full of love for everybody. Well, maybe I love kitties in the wrong way, but I love all people and love playing with the dogs I have met. The only possible negative my foster mom can tell you is I countersurf, but I don’t see that as a negative. I mean, somebody has to clean the counters, right? I’m really an easy keeper. Vacuums don’t faze me. I’m a laidback, even-keel kind of guy. Like Siberian huskies should, I do have a job. My job is food transport. I pick up my food bowl in my mouth and walk around with it, whether it is occupied by food or empty. If it’s occupied, by the time I get it to our destination, it’s empty. So I’ve done my job. Please note, like window cleaning for some housekeepers, food cleanup is not in my job description. I’m merely a food transporter or, really, a bowl transporter. See what they mean? How could you not fall in love with me?
