SEE MORE PHOTOS! This dog has entire photo album online. Just <a href="http://community.webshots.com/user/katylied2">CLICK HERE</a> and scroll to the album under his or her name. SEE MY VIDEO! If there is a "video" tab above my photo, you can see me in action! <font="Arial">About Quinne: We will never know how this beautiful girl with the big blue eyes ended up in a shelter, imploring us with her hopeful expression to get her OUTTA' there ... but we were lucky enough to have room for a little girl just about the time SHE ran out of time. She is about 2 years old. We met Quinne at Petco recently and recognized that she has a different build and "look" about her than most Siberians. One of our volunteers had seen Alaskan Klee Kais ("miniature Huskies") in the past, and thought Quinne had a lot of physical characteristics of this breed, and might well be a standard Alaskan Klee Klai (see photo of a Klee Kai in her listing). Whatever she is, she's a REALLY good girl who is cute as a button and very friendly! Quinne's Foster Mom Says: I just got back from getting little miss Quinne and she is great! Thank goodness we got her out of there -- it was not a nice place! She sat in the back of the car on the way home, so content and happy. She looked out the back glass for over half of the way home. When I went to pick her up she was a lot smaller than I had imagined! At the shelter she was very shy but now that she is home she has brightened up a bit. She was very easy for me to bathe and cooperated very well! I even picked her up with no problem on her behalf such as kicking. She's a nice calm girl for such a young dog. <div> Her front paw is kind of crooked, and we assume that maybe she broke it while on the run -- but it causes her no discomfort and doesn't affect her mobility at all. She crates nicely, and also knows SIT. She has had no accidents in her cage or in the house. It appears she is housebroken -- I think she HAD to have come from a home where she was loved. The woman of the shelter told me that she was found in a school yard and she had to sort through the kids to get the dog out. :) So we know she is kid friendly. We have not been able to cat-test her. Her teeth are puppy-white ... she looks young and she definitely is very small! She probably weighs 40 pounds and only stands about a foot and a half off the ground. </div> Updates from her Foster Dad: During the 3 hour drive up to Mansfield Quinne slept most of the way there. It was an early morning and late night for us all, but her riding well in the car didn’t surprise us at all. We brought our kennels with us and she was just fine in her kennel in a strange place. After spending about 5 hours in our kennel she was let out with Meika and Keri's sisters' dog, a <1 year old Black Lab/Boxer mix male. After seeing their interactions we have come to the conclusion that Quinne isn't crazy about male dogs. What we had originally thought was her being in a grumpy at PetCo because of the vet visit and the long drive we now thing is a problem with male dogs. Quinnes’ habits followed her to this new location. She was attached at the hip to Keri, which is the same as what we have here. When Keri is not home she is that way for me, but when Keri is home I am invisible -- she's a Mama's girl! When Keri went out she reverted back to me, but wasn’t as laid back as she is while we are at home. It was almost like she was in a strange place and was worried that she would be left there without "her people". We also gave our first attempt at cat testing. Tammie told us a few things to try, so we tried them. We put a cat into Meikas cage and then let Quinne in to see what was up. We had to show Quinne that there was something there. She was definitely curious about the cat, but didn’t seem to show a lot of aggression towards the cat although the cat was making aggressive noises towards her. We then reversed locations, with the same result. When she was let out of the cage with the cat in the arms of Keri’s’ sister she was definitely interested in the cat, but we were unable to determine if it was a dinner interest or a curious interest. I would say it is safe bet to say that she is cat tolerant, but I won’t go so far as to say that she is cat friendly. Lastly, we had some issued with containment. On two separate occasions Quinne slipped out the side door, and one of those times Meika joined. Both of these times were so fast that the person who had opened the door hadn’t made it off the landing. Quinne had no reservations about bolting out the door, and also had no problems coming back to Keri, however she would not respond the same to Keri's sister. Later in the afternoon while Keri was gone she got out again on us, same circumstances. This time, however, we did not have Keri on our side. Keri’s’ brother-in-law and I chased after her. She got about 5 houses down before she saw something she wanted to sniff. We took this opportunity to catch up. He opened the door to his car and she got in, although she hesitated about doing that. In summary, we feel that she is cat tolerant at the best…but not going to go out on a limb and say she is cat friendly. She gets along just fine with our Meika, but seems to have issues with male dogs, and as we saw at PetCo can also be selective about female dogs. Her time here has definitely seen a remarkable change in Quinne. When she first joined us she had no idea how to play, both with humans and toys. Now she is playing with toys when Meika lets her have a toy, and she is also playing some with Meika when she knows we are watching her. When she doesn’t know we are watching, however, she plays with Meika like there is no tomorrow. Here recently she is getting into the toy stack on her own and getting toys and bones out for her to play with. This dog's adoption donation is $250. If you know how much it costs to give a new dog responsible vet care, you can easily see that this is quite a bargain! This dog has had a complete health exam, has already been altered (spayed or neutered), is microchipped, has tested negative for heartworm, has been kept on heartworm and flea preventative, is fully vaccinated and free of parasites. What to do if you want to adopt this dog: Just <a href="mailto:ADOPTASLEDDOG@AOL.COM">SEND AN EMAIL</a> to request an adoption application! We will review your application to determine if there is a good match between your family and this dog. We may suggest another if we can offer a better fit in terms of lifestyle, experience, other pets, etc. A vet check, reference checks, and a home visit will be conducted before an adoption can be considered for approval NOTE: In the vast majority of cases, the dogs in our program are rescued from shelters, and Northern Lights has no means by which to collect or verify a dog's history. We work in concert with our veterinarians, and breed and age estimates are based on a combination of professional input and our collective experience. Our policy with information acquired while the dogs are in our care is that of "full disclosure". It is our goal to ensure the adopter has all available information to ensure the best possible match between the dog and the adopting person or family. In some instances, because of applicant interest, dogs are in our program for relatively brief periods of time. If we have identified a temperament or health condition while the dog is in our care and custody, every effort will be made to correct it prior to adoption OR the adopter will be made aware of the issue or condition prior to adoption. Northern Lights' screening process is designed to select only adopters who are willing, and have the means, to treat conditions which may occur after adoption, and adopter will be contractually responsible for doing so. <font="Arial">NORTHERN LIGHTS IS NOT A SHELTER. We are a rescue comprised of individuals who open their private homes to foster dogs in need of a second chance.
