Aleera is a beautiful, sweet girl, very petite, weighing only forty pounds. She was quite the vocal one at the shelter with her woo woos and howls, hoping someone would come to her rescue. She was very happy when our SHRF volunteer came to pick her up.
Aleera is an affectionate two year old, who loves to be around humans. She is very friendly and playful with other dogs and people, especially children. Aleera gets along with other dogs, her size and smaller. She is not very fond of visiting the vet, but then again who likes to be poked and prodded?
She loves to chew, so her fosters keep a Nylabone and other safe chew toys handy at all times. Peanut butter in a Kong works nicely to keep her chewing for a while. She even fetches toys!
Aleera loves to go for a ride in the car and LOVES to go for long walks. She does well on the leash, and seems to like it best when there is another dog is in the lead. She has the typical Husky prey drive when she sees lizards and squirrels. This would indicate caution around cats too.
She is housebroken and obeys most simple commands like “sit” and “no”. Her fosters are working with her on "heel", “off” and "come". Aleera is what we call a “face licker” and if you don’t stoop down to greet her, she will jump up to personally deliver her affection. That’s why she’s being taught “off”. She's a little possessive of her food and toys but responds well to correction.
She does have some separation anxiety and is VERY excited to see you after being gone all day. Be prepared to spend some time hugging and petting her if you’ve been gone for a while. She is crate trained but of course prefers to be out with her humans. The vast majority of Huskies never need a crate, much preferring to be around their humans, including sleeping near them.
She is healthy, housebroken, heartworm negative, spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on all her shots. Good things DO come in small packages, so do a good thing for yourself and allow this girl to be your companion. Fill out an adoption application at the upper left side of this page, today.
