Description
Dog Breed: Siberian Husky (medium coat). Once she has time to settle in, this lovely husky enjoys gentle pets and quiet companionship. Sheâs a classic husky in all the best waysâvocal, curious, and happiest when sheâs out on a walk taking in all the smells. Sheâs not much for toys, but treats are a favorite, and she plays wonderfully with other dogs. Sheâd do best with adopters who can give her time to adjust and provide daily mental and physical enrichment. Check out what one volunteer has to say about her: Karma was the best doggy day adventure buddy! She hopped right in the car with zero hesitation. She was the slightest bit vocal on our way out, but she just wanted to let me know how excited she was for the afternoon ahead. We drove to downtown Martinez where we walked around a bit then stopped to grab coffee. She instantly wagged when she saw another dog and was so happy to meet it, she even snubbed a treat so she could spend more time with her new pal. She also met a number of new human friends, each of which commented on her calm energy and sweet disposition. She really turned on the charm by giving them all unprompted paw shakes as well. She hopped right up on the bench to pose for a photo while we waited for our coffee order. After downtown we went to Mount Wanda and hiked for a while. She loved sniffing everything - from bushes to gopher holes, you name it she wanted to check it out. She was very easy on leash and only pulled when she saw a squirrel and a cat, but lost interest in them fairly quickly. Karma was really lovely to have for the afternoon. She seems pretty easy going and I think she would especially thrive with a family that would take her on outdoor adventures so she could sniff and explore.

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.
