Description
Dog Breed: Siberian Husky (medium coat). MEET ORCA! Orca is the sweetest girl who wants nothing more than to spend the day at her humanâs side. While she is fearful of new experiences, she is a very brave girl and adapts quickly. She is friendly to all but is somewhat fearful of dogs that are bigger than her. Orca is potty trained and will let you know when itâs time to go outside. Orca loves a long walk but is just as happy cuddling up in bed together. Most of all, she just loves to both give and receive love. My friends describe me as: Shy, Affectionate, Gentle Orca is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped and seen by our vet team. For more information on Orca or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.

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.
