.huskyrescueteam If you have additional questions please email infohuskyrescueteam Athena and Iris came to us from Frederick County Animal Control after being surrendered as part of a trio of under‑socialized Huskies. Shelter staff initially believed the girls didn’t get along, but once they were safely out and able to decompress, their true relationship became clear. Athena, estimated around 3 years old, and Iris, just a year, are deeply bonded — likely a mother–daughter pair who relied on each other through instability. What began as two misunderstood dogs has revealed itself to be a sweet, protective duo who have only grown closer in foster care. Their dynamic fits perfectly — Athena leads with calm confidence, and Iris follows with trust and devotion. They enjoy the company of other dogs and will happily play, but always with each other close by. If another dog tries to pick on one, the other steps in without hesitation. Their bond is deep, protective, and incredibly sweet to witness. We'd like to find them a home together. Athena Calm, steady, and self‑assured The emotional anchor of the pair Helps Iris navigate new experiences Gentle, sweet, and quietly affectionate Iris Young, silly, and still learning about the world A bit reserved in unfamiliar environments Gains confidence from Athena’s presence Sweet‑natured and eager to trust once she feels safe Because of Iris’s limited exposure and Athena’s grounding influence, the girls will thrive in a semi‑quiet home with someone patient and understanding. They don’t need constant activity — just a stable environment, kind guidance, and the chance to continue blossoming together. Athena and Iris are truly special. They’ve chosen each other, and now they’re ready to choose their person/family. ~~Husky Education And Rescue Team is a foster based rescue. Our dogs are in our foster homes all up and down the east coast. We do not have a facility in which you can visit. We find this a huge benefit because we learn our dogs and are able to educate our adopters on what it’s like to have them live in your home. Part of our process, once pre-approved, is to speak with the foster for the dog you’re interested in. If you’re still interested in adopting from our rescue the first step is to complete our adoption application online at .huskyrescueteam/apply If you have additional questions please email infohuskyrescueteam
