Calypso's Story

Calypso is a Husky with a big heart who was initially having a hard time navigating the world when she came to the ASPCA. After a change of scenery in the mountains, she really started to come into her own and didn’t need to go through our full program. She’s now ready to find her person, a cozy place to land and someone who is up for a little fun along the way.<br/><br/>Calypso is very social with people and tends to warm up quickly, especially if you have treats! She’s food motivated and enjoys learning, which helps her stay connected on walks and pick up new routines. She’s comfortable with handling and has built great skills like settling in a crate, engaging with enrichment and riding in the car for outings.<br/><br/>Calypso is an energetic pup who gets excited about getting out and doing things. At the start of an activity, she may have a quick burst of extra energy before settling in and getting into a nice rhythm. On leash, she may pull when she’s excited, but she’s happy to check in and adjust when a tasty treat is part of the picture.<br/><br/>Calypso enjoys most other dogs and is interested in play, though her playstyle can be a bit bold. She likes to play rough and can be vocal, which not every dog appreciates. She may do best with dog friends who enjoy that kind of play and with slower, more structured introductions like going for walks together.<br/><br/>Calypso is a playful, expressive dog who also knows how to relax and settle. If you’re looking for a social companion who’s ready to keep learning and have a good time with you, she could be a great match! If she sounds like your kind of dog, please submit an adoption inquiry here - https://airtable.com/appu4JXVMk4vi7hbT/shr1nGkF2RcpTMHY<br/><br/>Please note: The ASPCA Behavioral Rehabilitation Center does not charge adoption fees. Our meet-and-greets take place in Weaverville, North Carolina. If you do not receive a response from us after submitting an inquiry, please check your "Spam" folder as it may have been sent there.

ASPCA Behavioral Rehabilitation Center's Adoption Policy
When the BRC receives an adoption inquiry about a dog, a BRC Behavior Specialist reaches out via email to the potential adopter. They provide the dog’s Adoption Profile which explains a little more about the dog, and they also provide some general information about the BRC program, the population of dogs we serve, and what an adopter might expect if they bring home a graduate of our program. If the person pursues the adoption, the Behavior Specialist schedules a phone call to discuss the dog in more detail and to get more information about the adopter and their circumstances (home life, other pets, children, etc.). If, after the phone conversation, the potential adopter and our staff member both feel that the dog and adopter are a good match, an in-person meet and greet is scheduled for the adopter (and family if applicable) to meet the dog. BRC dogs can often go home right after the first meet and greet if the adopter is ready to take a dog home, but the BRC also welcomes potential adopters to go home and think it over or discuss with other members of the family, or even to set up additional meets with other family members or the family dogs, etc. Our adoption process is conversation based with the goal of making a successful match between the adopter(s) and a dog.
