Story
Shadow is a 5 y/o all white female husky with a lot of energy, she is bonded to her sister Storm (6y/o also looking to be adopted) and would most likely not do well if separated. At this time, we have found a foster home for the girls and are only accepting candidates willing to rehome both girls. The girls are outdoor dogs and require at least 6-8 hrs. a day of outdoor time. Shadow is about 45lbs of fluff and house trained although occasionally has accidents and can be behavioral. Shadow is medicated and on Prozac which she takes once a day with her food for depression. She does well with children and has never shown any signs of aggression. The girls are huskies and very high energy pets. They require someone who has experience with dogs. Shadow specifically is an escape artist and has broken out of enclosures while also on a wire lead inside the enclosure (yes, she broke a wire lead with her neck) and then proceeded to go on an adventure with her sister.

Story
Storm is a 6 y/o grey and white Siberian Husky (45lbs). She is bonded to her sister Shadow 5 y/o and most likely will not do well if separated. At this time, we have found a foster home for the girls and are only accepting candidates willing to rehome both girls. Storm is very well behaved, and house trained. She is always happy and enjoys playing outside with her sister but can also be calm and enjoys cuddles. She is an outside dog and requires 6-8 hours a day of outdoor time. She does well with children and other dogs but can be food aggressive only with Shadow (she has no aggression towards humans and will let you take the treat out of her mouth but if Shadow does it, she gets upset). The girls are huskies and are very high energy pets, they require someone who has experience with dogs. They are both very excitable and jump when greeted, meaning small children will get knocked over. If you have any questions don't hesitate to send me an email to megrhiane@gmail.com
