Description
Dog Breed: Husky (medium coat). Indy (A139475) is a 4-year-old AK Husky who weighed 33 pounds on intake! 11/05/25 Indy has arrived back at the shelter as a stray and was not redeemed by her owner. This is the thrid time since her original adoption that Indy has been back as a stray. It is entirely possible that this is not completely Indy's fault. However, she has previously been known to be an escape artist, and she has shown that once loose she will RUN! Indy has been as outgoing and social as ever, and she is looking a wonderful home that can keep her contained. If you think this might be you, please give us a call! 10/09/25 Miss Indy is back and ready for her next adventure! Indy arrived back at the shelter as a stray. A reminder that this girl is an escape artist! She has a history of digging, climbing fences, and even jumping out of car windows. She is looking for an owner who will keep her safely contained and out of trouble! She is an active girl who would love to be your running buddy or your skijor/bikejor buddy! If you are interested in meeting Indy, please let us know! 08/28/25 This pretty girl is Indy! Indy was surrendered to the shelter because her owner could no longer house her. She was described as being a friendly girl who has previously done well with babies and children! It was noted that Indy can be quite the escape artist, so she should always be on a leash, secure tie-out, or supervised when in a fenced-in yard. Her surrendering owner stated that she is not trained and we encourage her next owner to bring her to a basic obedience class with a certified trainer to continue working on her manners. She is a very quick and agile girl and may even enjoy an agility class! Indy was said to be used to spending time in a kennel, but is not housebroken. Getting her on a routine will help her! If you are interested in meeting Indy, please let us know!

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.
