Description
Dog Breed: Siberian Husky. Meet Peanut! Peanut is a female husky who was rescued from a hoarding situation along with 9 other huskies. She was pregnant when she was saved and gave birth to nine puppies at Husky House, one of which was unfortunately stillborn. Peanut will be able to go home when her puppies are old enough to be separated from her (around 12/20), but we are accepting applications for her now. Peanut’s previous owners indicated that she was attacked as a puppy and suffered a neck injury, but we suspect she actually suffered a brain injury as she had a head tilt. Peanut is a gentle dog and loves treats! She also does well with other dogs her size. Peanut can be a bit of a “counter surfer” and would do best in a family that can help her continue work on this, and keep things unsafe for dogs to consume out of reach. Interested in adopting Peanut? Please visit .huskyhouse today to fill out an application.

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.
