Story
Meet Sky! We found her and her husband as strays near our home, where they won our hearts with their immediate trust and affection. Despite our best efforts, no one claimed them, and now we've been approved by the humane society to re-home them. Now, we're seeking a loving home for one of both of these beautiful pair- a playful, black-and-white male with captivating blue eyes and an all-white female with one blue and one brown eye who craves cuddles. Both are very sweet, affectionate, and well-trained. They excel at fetch, respond to commands, are house-trained, and adore both other animals and children. Rabies shot are upt to date and they have been de-wormed. Regrettably, we can't keep them due to our chickens (Huskies and chickens don't do well together), but as a family, we're dedicated to finding them the perfect forever home.

Story
WARNING: When you meet Rosie, you will immediately fall in love! Rosie is a very loving dog who adores all people and all dogs. She is an exceptional snuggler. She's a big goofball who is curious about everything. She will follow you from room-to-room, but she's also comfortable being on her own in the yard. She loves to sleep on your lap or at your feet. She enjoys chasing sticks and balls. She is a great swimmer! We found her wandering the streets and don't know much about her health, but she seems to be in great shape. We believe she is part pitbull and we don't know what else. She's about 6-12 months. She is mostly housebroken (she has peed on our bath mat, though) and she's good on a leash. We've found that when she is being too playful for our older dog, we'll put Rosie on a leash and she'll calm down. We would love to keep her ourselves, but our old dog is too grumpy to live with a young pup.
