Description
Dog Breed: Siberian Husky (medium coat). Foxy is a complex lady who is looking for a rescue placement, or an experienced owner who can help her with her touch sensitivity, defensive behaviors, fear and anxiety. We think that Foxy's behavior is rooted in undersocialization and fear, but we are working on trying to see if maybe she has some pain or discomfort in her hind end that is contributing to her defensiveness. Previous homes have reported that Foxy does not do well with small animals, and has been snappy with touch, making routine care like bathing, nail trims or just overall health checks difficult. We think that transfer to rescue group with resources to invest in Foxy's care and growth would be a great transition for her before she finds permanent placement, but she might also do well with an experienced owner in a quiet household--no kiddos please! She has shown similar defensive behavior when other dogs get into her space, but we think she might be open to a respectful, confident doggie sibling, along with decompression and management. If you think you can help Foxy, please email animal.careventura If you are a rescue that would like some more information: vcar.rescueventura Thank you!

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.
