Description
Dog Breed: Husky (medium coat). Trym (A109351) is an 11-year-old Ak Husky who weighed a little over 60lb on intake! 07/18/26 These sweet old brothers are Trym and Loki! While we are not requiring they be adopted together, they are quite fond of each other. So maybe consider the pair, if you have the time and space! They were surrendered to the shelter due to their owners moving. They were described as being initially shy but quickly become friendly and affectionate after warming up to you. They know some basic commands, such as sit, come, lay down, outside, kennel and enough. They were said to be great children and curious about strangers. They have experience with dogs, cats and even livestock like horses and goats. Please use caution if planning to introduce either of these boys into a home with other animals. They are looking for a home to live out their golden years in. Loki has been known to eat cat toys from time to time resulting in him having two surgeries to remove them so it is very important to monitor them and make sure they arent getting into things they shouldn't. However both boys are comfortable in kennels and do well being kennels when unattended. They do have experience living in fenced in kennel runs outside however have never lived on a chain. If you are interested in giving a retirement home to Trym, Loki, or the pair, please give us a call!

Siberian Husky

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.
