History: Daisy FKA Gretel is a beautiful young girl with a lot of love to offer. She is a loyal and active girl who was recently returned to rescue when she was no longer a match for the busy family. She is a higher energy lady so will thrive with physical and mental exercise each day!
A note from the foster: Daisy is gaining confidence and has proven to be a fun, curious, intelligent, energetic sweet girl and great running partner. She will need an adopter willing to get her out for excercise and mentally challenge her. Running, hiking, playing with other dogs (she has met a few of my friend's dogs and did amazingly well with a monitored introduction), catching/chasing her ball and de-stuffing any toy that squeeks are her favorite and preferable ways to spend her time. She does well in her crate, no shredding her blanket and just a few quiet little cries to tell you how much she will miss you. Daisy is house broken for the most part and as long as you get her out consistently and give her the, "let's go potty" que there will not be any accidents. Daisy really likes people once she makes sure they are safe, like in a matter of 7 seconds. She is very connected to her foster mom and doesn't allow her to get too far from her for fear she may miss out on something important, like a treat. She is very food motivated and knows the sit & shake command very well. We are working on, "leave it", to help curb her insaciable love of squirrels and bunnies. What I love about Daisy, is not only is she a ball of energy, but also loves to make herself at home right next to you on the couch watching TV, while working or doing any project. It takes her a bit of time to unwind, but she will eventually settle in and is learning to relax. Afterall, she is a Shepherd/Husky mix. Working is a priority
Truly, Daisy is a such a great dog and will make an amazing companion for someone ready for her energy and love..
Adoption Fee: $500 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
