breeder who stated she was the last of the litter and they couldn't sell her. Her little body was flea infested and covered in ticks that made her anemic due to all the loss of blood. We pulled her into emergency rescue, not only did she need lots of TLC but the shelter was very full so they had no space for her. Zara came to us scared and very dirty, it was clear she had been living outside and was not socialized. We gave her 3 baths and picked off a ton of ticks. Then gave her meds to kill off the fleas and ticks that remained. Over the next few days Zara felt much better and started coming out of her shell. Zara had unique markings on her coat. She is considered a piebald husky. This means she has a rare genetic trait that gives her a different pattern on her coat. Many people do not know what a piebald husky is, because it's pretty rare. :-) Because of this we believe she was the leftover puppy not only because of her eye, but because she didn't look like your standard husky. Sadly Zara was born with a glaucoma on her right eye. This means bacteria got inside her little eye before her eyes opened ruining her chance at every seeing out of that eye. Because of this we gave her eye drops until she was old enough for her eye surgery. She had eye surgery in early Aug, and was spayed at the same time. She did wonderful with the surgery, and bounced right back to her normal, husky howling, energetic self the next day. She didn't even let her e-collar cone get in the way. She truly has the best spirit! Since being in foster we have noticed Zara is shy in new places, and around new people. She will back away and observe the situation. Having another dog around who is more outgoing brings out the best in Zara. Becuase of this her new home is required to have another active outgoing dog. Zara is great on leash, crate trained, and house trained. She does need work on resource guarding bones from other dogs. Her resource guarding is not major, and with some work I think this issue will go away. Zara is looking for a home who can give her lots of walks and adventures! She needs a 6ft fenced yard since she is an energetic husky. She will likely grow to be able to jump a 4ft fence. She is cat, and dog friendly. Zara would do better with older respectful kids. Her new family should also be willing to do basic obedience training with her. Zara is a chewer being a puppy and cannot be left alone unless crated. Husky experience is a plus. Zara is spayed, up to date on vaccines, on monthly heartworm/flea tick meds and ready to go home with you!
