Estrella's Story
Meet Estrella! She is flawlessly housetrained (zero accidents in the 3 months we've had her) is crate-trained and knows basic commands (sit, stay/wait, down) and as a mature lady you don't have to worry about her chewing things up like a puppy would. She is the perfect medium energy and much more of a couch potato than the typical husky. She loves going on walks and hikes but also has a love affair with the couch!<br/><br/>Her ideal home? She would love to be your one and only so she can soak up all the attention. She doesn't require humans that are home all day, but would need a little time to adjust to your schedule and home. She is likely not a good fit for a first time dog owner because of her breed (IYKYK). Her future home should be okay with fluffy dog hair on all aspects of their home and vehicle, and be willing to work on continuing to polish her leash walking skills - she does well on a harness but pulls as if shes training to be a sled dog if she sees a squirrel!<br/><br/>What she really loves is people!! <br/>Tiny humans? Wonderful, wants to give them kisses and snuggle. <br/>Adults? They know how to give belly rubs which she LIVES FOR! She will also shamelessly headbutt your hands if you stop petting her.<br/><br/>Like most huskies she loves to talk, especially when you first leave the house or crate her, there for she is not apartment friendly. <br/>Estrella does not require a fenced yard, but if you have a fence it must be fully secure and over 4ft. She should never be left alone in a yard, those husky instincts are strong!<br/><br/>To apply for Estrella, fill out our no-obligation adoption application: https://www.pgspca.org/adopt/online-adoption-application/<br/>Please consult our Adoption FAQ before contacting us.<br/><br/>Check our our Adoption Show Attendees page to find out if Estrella will be attending our next adoption event: https://www.pgspca.org/adopt/adoption-show-attendees/<br/><br/>NOTE: We are an all volunteer group and do not operate a shelter.
