Description
Posted Breed: Siberian Husky. Female, 1 year, Siberian husky X, 35 lbs Willow has been a very sweet girl. She is a little anxious to new environments but adjusts with patience and love. She loves cuddles and has a great personality. She has not been with cats in our home, but, even though she enjoys other dogs, resource guarding has been an issue, and we recommend Willow be adopted as an only dog and showered with all the love and affection she needs. She is a jumper, and has been receptive to training, but gets very excited, so she would do well with older kids. She does bark at other dogs walking on the street and sometimes in her crate, but for the most part, she is looking for attention and activity. She would do well in a home where she can be walked frequently and showered with love. She was great on short car rides (up to 30 mins) and has had a few housetraining accidents, but with additional training, we think she will have that figured in no time! She has improved on the leash so much in a short time, and with a little more training, she should have no issues with leash manners. This beautiful girl deserves a committed and loving forever home. Our rescue is called BARCS. We are a registered Charity. Our Website is .barcsrescue. All our animals are posted on the website and updated often. If you would like to proceed we need an adoption application to be filled out. They can be found on our website. Once we receive your application, we will contact you to arrange a meeting with the pup you are interested in. We look forward to hearing from you.

Breed overview
Siberian Husky
A.K.A.: Husky, Arctic Husky, Chukcha, Chukchi, Chukchi Sled Dog, Sibe, Sibes, Sled Dog, Snow Dog
Overview:
The Siberian Husky is a striking and beloved breed, originating from Northeast Asia where they were bred by the Chukchi people for pulling sleds over long distances in harsh conditions. Physically, they are easily recognizable by their medium size, thick double coat (available in various colors and markings), and often captivating blue or bi-colored eyes. Their temperament is typically friendly, outgoing, and playful, making them generally good with children and other dogs. However, their independent and sometimes stubborn nature, coupled with a strong prey drive, means consistent training and secure containment are essential. While affectionate, their high energy levels and need for significant exercise make them less suitable for sedentary lifestyles or tiny apartments; a house with a securely fenced yard is often preferred. Health-wise, they are generally robust but can be prone to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia and eye problems such as cataracts and progressive retinal atrophy. Overall, a Siberian Husky thrives with active families committed to meeting their exercise and mental stimulation needs.
