Description
Dog Breed: Siberian Husky (medium coat). Mila is a sweet, calm five-year-old red Siberian husky who has had an adventurous life but still knows the value of cuddle time. She was found with a litter of adorable 8-9-week-old puppies who were quickly adopted in January last year. Mila, on the other hand, was harder to catch at that point and evaded animal control until October. She was in rough shape after 10+ months on the run. Her eyes were infected and her coat showed the scars of a diet based on what she was able to scavenge. After almost three months in foster, she is now ready to find her forever home, thanks to the help of friends of FYCAS who helped Mila get the care she needed for her eyes, as well as her spay. Despite her time on the run, we were surprised to see how gentle and calm she is. She is a little timid in new situations, but very loving once she is comfortable . Her age is estimated at about 5 to 6 years and she is about 55 lbs. She is completely potty trained and likes to play calmly with her foster siblingsâa border collie mix and some huskies. She thinks good-morning kisses as well as ear and tummy rubs are as important as eating kibble. And she loves walks but doesn't pull like the other huskies. She is not vocal so if you are an IG influencer who wants a screaming husky, she is not your dog. Her DNA says she is mostly Siberian Husky with a little German Shepard, Malamute, and Samoyed to round out the mix.

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.
