Description
Dog Breed: Siberian Husky. Meet Salmon! Salmon is a male husky looking for his loving forever home. Salmon was originally a resident at a city shelter but unfortunately was attacked by another dog there. An artery in his back leg was damaged during the attack and poor Salmon required emergency veterinary care! Once Husky House heard his story, we pulled him into our program so he could continue his recovery in a safe and comfortable environment. Husky House is coordinating his follow up and recheck vet visits with our trusted specialists. Despite all of this, Salmon is a happy, friendly, gentle dog who loves getting affection from volunteers and even seems to still want to play with other dogs through the fence! We will be testing him with other dogs once his leg has fully recovered and then we will update his bio. Interested in adopting Salmon? Please visit .huskyhouse today to fill out an application.

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.
