Powder is a sweet and lovely 3 1/2 year old spayed female Siberian Husky. She's a large girl, weighing around 70 lbs, with the most beautiful blue eyes! She was left by her previous owner in a small-town pound and was facing euthanasia before we learned about her and took her into our rescue. The wonderful volunteers at the pound worked hard to share her story and we were able to help out!

Powder is a typical Siberian and is an accomplished escape artist, so she need a home with a 6' wooden privacy fence for safe outdoor time if not on-leash. She can climb or jump anything shorter, and she can also rip and pull chain link off the frame... so a 6' tall, solid wood fence is what she needs, for outdoor time. She is 99% housetrained and enjoys being inside with her human friends.

Powder does well with "some" other dogs but has issues with others. It seems to be on a case-by-case basis and we're not sure why she developed these (bad) habits. She would not likely be cat-safe or safe with tiny dogs, as many Huskies are prey-driven and will chase or "hunt" small animals. Please read and research about this wonderful breed before inquiring to adopt, as Huskies are not for everyone. While they are indeed gorgeous, happy and friendly, they do shed a great deal, they love to dig giant holes in the yard, and they will absolutely run away in a heartbeat if ever allowed to be outside "loose." On the flip side, they are extremely social, outgoing and loving dogs, who make a great furry addition to the right (prepared!) family.

Powder walks well on a leash and she loves to give her foster parents lots of kisses and get her belly rubbed. She is looking for a home with big-dog experience, and preferably one with "Siberian" experience!
