Description
Dog Breed: Husky / German Shepherd Dog / Mixed (medium coat). Mokey (A140723) is a 6-year-old AK Husky x GSD mix who weighed 62.9 pounds on intake! Foster update: We have been fostering 6yo brothers Sox and Mokey since Jan of this year, and they have both been a total delight to have in our dog yard and in our house. Sox and Mokey are both housetrained, capable of being inside without worrying about marking or chewing furniture. They love to play with each other and other dogs, and they get along well with our small 18lb dog. They are also good sled dogs, pulling well on the gangline, easy to bootie up and put in harness, and well-mannered to their partner next to them on the line. They are both good eaters, instantly friendly toward people, and settle down well in new surroundings. They love being able to hang out on a couch and would make excellent pet dogs or sled dogs! 12/29/25 This fun-loving team was surrendered to the shelter and is looking for homes that can keep them active and running! Mokey is the leader of the pack and was described as a great dog who loves to run! These boys are brothers and were stated to be AK Husky and German Shepherd mixes with a smidge of pitty mixed in. They are used to living outdoors on dog houses but have been enjoying the warmth of our inside kennels during this cold snap! They were said to love curling up in their straw when outdoors and coming inside to cozy up next to the fireplace. When they can not get out for a run on the sled, they were said to love playing with each other in a fenced-in yard or going on long walks through the woods! They would love to join someoneâs rec team or a home that can keep them active and stimulated! If you are interested in meeting Mokey or any of his brothers/teammates, please let us know!

Breed overview
Overview:
The Gerberian Shepsky is a hybrid of the German Shepherd Dog and Siberian Husky, emerging in North America as a modern companion with working-dog roots. Typically medium to large, they feature an athletic build, erect ears, and a dense double coat, often with striking blue or heterochromatic eyes. Their temperament blends loyalty, intelligence, and independence, making them affectionate yet occasionally headstrong. With very high energy, they thrive on daily exercise and structured training, suiting active families more than apartment living without ample outdoor time. Early socialization supports good manners with children and other pets. Notable health considerations include potential hip dysplasia and eye issues; regular vet care, weight management, and coat grooming help maintain well-being. Their typical lifespan ranges around 10–13 years, rewarding committed owners with a loyal, adventurous companion.
