What am I?
Neutered male Siberian husky
Colors:
Red & white, blue eyes
Weight:
66 pounds (as of 3/15/2025)
Experience with Children:
Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have met children of all ages and have been great with them.
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.

Named for 9/11 Victim:
I was named for Kevin L. Bowser.
History:
My history is an unusual story with some mystery, but I was turned into a Virginia animal shelter and then came to Pet Harbor. Then I found a home. Sadly, I became homeless yet again, through no fault of my own.

More About Me: Let’s talk about my mysterious beginning first. I was surrendered to an animal shelter in Virginia. Because of jurisdictional issues, I then was transferred to another shelter. It was then discovered I had been microchipped. Tracing the microchip backwards revealed not only my approximate birthday but that I was at a prior point in my young life housed in an animal shelter in Los Angeles, California. Here I am 2 years old and have already been in at least THREE animal shelters, one on the West Coast, the others the East Coast. Why? It’s not my fault, I can assure you. Despite all of that, I am a super happy dog. I am exuberant, full of power and joy. In other words, I am a Siberian husky! I have been taught commands at some point, but what I really love the most is giving hugs. I stand tall and wrap my paws right around you. Do you need a furry hug or two from a handsome and exuberant Siberian?

What am I?
Neutered male Siberian husky
Colors:

Weight:
61 pounds (as of 3/15/2025)
Experience with Children:
Pet Harbor does not know my history with children. Since coming to Pet Harbor, I have been great with all children I’ve met. They are, after all, youngsters, just like me.
Experience with Cats:
Pet Harbor does not know my history with cats. On 4/7/2024, Pet Harbor introduced me to cats. The result is cats and I get along great in the wrong way. I cannot live with cats and keep them 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. I have been great with all of the other dogs in my foster homes. I play and play with them. However, I have not always been nice to other dogs I’ve met outside my foster home. Pet Harbor has determined it’s a leash issue. When I am on a leash, I seem to have difficulty with other dogs, but even with those same dogs, in an appropriately fenced yard without my being attached to a leash, I am very playful with them.

Named for 9/11 Victim:
I was named for Jasper Baxter.
History:
Running at large, I landed in a suburban animal shelter. My humans did not come to look for me. I was adopted. This time I was not given the care I should have gotten, and animal control took me back to the shelter. From there, I came to Pet Harbor.

More About Me: Best winter dog around. You see, when people sit or lie down in my foster home, I wrap myself around them like a warm and toasty winter scarf or perhaps a warm and furry winter scarf. When people are standing, since I can’t really wrap myself around them, I give them hugs or I chew on them. I mean, I want to be as close to them as I can get, and they taste good. What can I say? I have two speeds: full speed and zonked. You might enjoy my “zonked” speed, but you should understand my being zonked is actually me reenergizing. My zonked periods usually end long before humans want them to end, and it takes quite a bit to get me to that zonked stage. You dig? I dig. That means I’m holier than thou. It also means I am for sure a card-carrying purebred Siberian husky. That also means I must have an owner who is a leader, not a follower. I have been a sweetheart in my foster home – very playful and loving, but I also like to see what I can get away with … literally. A sock inside the hamper? Any goodies on the kitchen counter? Something interesting in the garbage containers? Any cardboard in the recycling bin? A toilet paper roll that needs to be free of the paper that binds it? It’s all play to me. My best playful escapade is stealing my foster mom’s shoes from her feet! Everything I see is a toy. Your shoe? Toy! A pinecone in the street? Toy! Remote control? Toy! Your hand? Toy! These are actual objects of my play in my foster home. If I can pick it up, get any part of it in my mouth, or dig at it – it’s a toy! So do you fit the bill? If you need a good winter scarf and want lots of loving and play, do I belong to you? And let me correct you if you think I’m ONLY a winter dog. Springtime and summer are great, too, because I am a huge fan of hikes and walks.
