Oakley is a 3 year old Husky mix. She is fully house trained, kennel trained, great with kids of all sizes and even loves cats and small dogs. Her best friend used to be a male husky and would love a new home with another dog. This girl is a cuddle bug when she wants to be but loves to spend her time exploring and would make a great hiking buddy or even love to run next to a four wheeler while you farm.
Please do your breed research before applying to adopt. Huskies and Husky mixes are very special dogs with unique requirements. They often have the inclination to roam and can be great escape artists. Huskies need to be active and do best with adopters that can help them burn extra energy with fun training. They can have strong prey drives, and while every dog is different, many huskies will chase cats and livestock. Grooming is also an important part of their routine, brushing them several times a week can help prevent their undercoat from matting and keep them looking their best. Huskies are a fun, active breed that many have fallen in love with over the years, but please keep their breed needs in mind when considering adding one to your household.
