I went to my forever home on October 26, 2025!

pfmoira1

Age:

4 years old

Birthday:

September 13, 2021

What am I?

Spayed female Siberian husky

Colors:

Black & white, blue eyes

Weight:

52 pounds (as of 9/13/2025)

Experience with Children:

I’m wonderfully gentle and loving with all the children I’ve met.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor was told my history with cats is unknown. On 9/25/2025, I was introduced to cats and showed immediate interest in them. While I was gentle and didn’t try to harm them, I was very focused on their movements and wanted to investigate up close. Pet Harbor would recommend that if I live with cats, my interactions with them would be supervised. 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 my history with dogs is I am great with them, and I’ve proven this true with every dog I’ve met since joining Pet Harbor! I get along wonderfully with both male and female dogs. While I initially missed my foster brother when he found a home, I can be content as either a solo dog or with canine companions. I’d be great for visiting dog parks and would thrive in a multi-dog household, though having doggy friends isn’t absolutely necessary for my happiness.

Energy Level:

Medium

Owner Aptitude Level:

Novice

Named for 9/11 Victim:

I was named for Moira Ann Reddy-Smith, the only female police officer who lost her life that tragic day.

History:

I was adopted from an animal shelter to a wonderful mom. Fast forward to July of 2025. My mom was diagnosed with an aggressive terminal cancer. She can’t care for me anymore, and I went to boarding. From there, I came to Pet Harbor. I can’t physically help my mom, but I helped her heart knowing I came to a foster home. I hope to find a home while I can let her know she can stop worrying.

Info to come

More About Me: Well, hello there. A true Southern belle is known for grace, charm, and hospitality, and that describes me to a T. Polite, well-mannered, and trained, it’s as if I graduated from charm school. I wouldn’t dare brag about myself, of course, but I’ve overheard folks say I’m one of the best dogs anyone could welcome into their family.

Life in my foster home is sweet, even with my foster brother, Jasper. He gets a touch jealous when I receive attention, but I handle it with dignity. I simply step back and let him shine. A belle knows when to yield. I spend much of my day inviting Jasper to play. Sometimes he joins in, sometimes not, but I keep my spirits high and my persistence gentle.

If you’re looking for a plug-and-play gentle lady, look no further. You could even call me Scarlett, though I promise not to be Gone with the Wind. A little corny humor comes with the territory, bless my heart.

Are you ready to add a gracious, loving Southern belle to your home? Then, darlin’, you’ve found her!

Before you consider applying to adopt one of us, please read Pet Harbor’s Puppy Policy. Thank you for your interest and consideration!
I went to my forever home on February 24, 2025!

Birthday (approx):

June 11, 2023

What am I?

Spayed female Siberian husky

Colors:

Black & white, blue eyes

Weight:

40 pounds (as of 12/18/2024)

Experience with Children:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been great with the children I have met. I go out of my way to try to be around them.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. Pet Harbor introduced me to cats. I stiffened and honed in my focus on the cats. The following day, I showed a more favorable response. By the third intro, I have interacted with them just fine, up close & personal, even kittens. But then on the fourth intro, I scared the volunteers because I met three cats separately, and I had an intent, unbreakable focus on them. So Pet Harbor really isn’t sure cats are safe around me and would say choose at your own risk. 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.

More About Me: Best word to describe me is fun. Well, I’m also full of love. So fun and love. There we go. Two. And my two favorite things in the universe are children and toys. I love playing with them both. Toss a toy up in the air, and I become animated. Bring a child into the room, and I become a happy, happy girl! Truth be told, I’m as sweet as, well, Candy.

What am I?

Spayed female Siberian husky

Colors:

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

Weight:

58 pounds (as of 4/26/2025)

Experience with Children:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. I have been very loving to the children I have met in foster care. I seem to gravitate towards them.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. On 12/27/2024. Pet Harbor introduced me to cats. I didn’t try to harm them, but I did maintain an intent focus. So let’s say the jury is still out.

Experience with Dogs:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with dogs except that I was found stray with Alva, who already found a home, who perhaps is my littermate, and that I was great with other dogs when evaluated in a shelter before coming to Pet Harbor. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been great with dogs I’ve met, including small dogs. I am a female Siberian. Female Siberians can have — what’s the word? — pugnacity with other dogs. That would be me.

More About Me: Love. That is the best way to describe me, and it describes me perfectly. I love. I want to be loved. I want to be as close as I can get to you and shower you with kisses. I would sit in your lap if you would be so kind as to allow that. Though children are my favorite, I really love all people. I always gravitate towards people. I mean, I enjoy playing with other dogs, but given a choice, people are my magnet. Oh, another thing you should know about me is my grooming needs. You see my long hair? It needs quite a bit of brushing.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. On 12/15/2024, Pet Harbor introduced me to cats. I barked at the cats and showed more interest than the volunteers hoped to see. So it’s probably best I have a cat-free home.

Experience with Dogs:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with dogs except that I was found stray with Kevi, also available for adoption, who perhaps is my littermate, and that I was great with other dogs when evaluated in a shelter before coming to Pet Harbor.

More About Me: Picture a cute little flower girl walking down the aisle tossing flowers left and right. That’s me. Just as sweet as I can be, easy, gentle, soft, quiet. All I really need is someone to catch the beautiful flowers I toss. Are you that person for me? Oh, maybe there’s one more thing you should know. I love to have my belly scratched. I will unexpectedly slink into position.

More About Me: Easy keeper. I’m not a big fan of crates, but I really don’t need them. I do nothing wrong when left alone in my foster home. I’m a snuggler, a cuddler, a lover. I play well with dogs and people. Male Siberian huskies are supposed to be between 45 and 60. Many in shelters and rescue are really big. I’m on the small side of that scale, which is just perfect my foster mom says. Actually, she says I’m perfect in all ways.

Experience with Cats:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. On 8/11/2024, Pet Harbor introduced me to cats. It was a pretty swift verdict. I cannot live with cats and keep cats safe.

Experience with Dogs:

Pet Harbor does not know my history with dogs except that I was great with them when evaluated in a shelter before coming to Pet Harbor. When I first got to Pet Harbor, I ruffled my feathers with dogs. Now sometimes, I play well with them, but most of the time I feel the need to ruffle my feathers. All of those dogs are around my size. I have not reacted well to small dogs.

More About Me: I’m a head scratcher for sure. My foster dad simply cannot understand how I am homeless. He says I’m an awesome dog, an easy, issue-free keeper. So who knows why I am homeless? I’m big on snuggling & cuddling. I don’t want much. A warm bed, someone to love me, a bit of food, and snuggle time. That’s not really asking for much, is it? Oh, about my age, when stray dogs go to animal shelters, they or their veterinarians make a guesstimate of dogs’ ages. There is no way to know for sure. The age listed here is what the shelter guessed. My current veterinarian thinks I’m a year or two older than that. But whatever age I am, I certainly want birthday snuggles every year! I truly am fabulous with people. If you are looking for perfection, there’s no reason for you to look further.
