Description
Dog Breed: Husky (medium coat). MEET RHAENA! I am currently in foster - please come to meet me Sundays in the Boston shelter! Like her Targaryen namesake, Rhaena is a rare and striking beauty. She can be a bit reserved at first but once she feels safe her true inner husky emerges. She is house and crate trained. Knows commands such as sit, lay down, and shake. She enjoys stuffies, kongs, walks, and taking up the whole couch. She could live with dogs and dog savvy cats, but would also thrive as your only pet. Rhaena has spent her first two years looking for someone as loyal as she is. She would thrive in a low-traffic home outside of the hustle and bustle of the city, where she can go on walks or use a yard in a quiet area, spend the day napping and cuddling. Knowledge of dog body language will be a big plus in helping this girl break out of her shell. Come meet Rhaena and let the reign of love begin! Rhaena is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped and seen by our vet team. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY however, we are unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.

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.
