Dogs for adoption

Honey

  •      Female
  • Husky cross
  • 11 months old
  • Honey is an extremely sweet and affectionate girl with a playful, loving nature. She thrives on interaction and enjoys cuddles just as much as playtime—be prepared for plenty of kisses. She’s a very clever dog who is likely to pick up training quickly, though she will need ongoing guidance and consistency.
  • Honey is sensitive by nature and can become upset if growled at by people, so she would do best in a calm, understanding home that uses positive reinforcement. She currently knows “sit” and will happily roll onto her back for a tummy rub. She will need plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and secure containment, as she is an experienced escape artist who enjoys digging under fences.
  • Honey is known to be good with cats, children, and cows, but is not suitable for a home with chickens or sheep.
