Meelah
D.O.B April 2021
Female
Adoption Fee $350
Microchip number: 953010005021377
Pet Exchange Register Source Number: RE100304
Meelah is a pretty young Husky girl looking for a new family to call her own. Shes had a rough start to life, but despite her past experiences she is very friendly and is learning to enjoy her cuddles and trust humans again.
Meelah is a very happy, energetic girl who loves going for a run, walk and enjoys the occasional crazy zoomie session. When excited she can be quite vocal, particularly at walkies and dinner times, but she soon settles and isn't a dog that will be noisy for no reason.
When excited she can get jumpy and a bit mouthy, so these are behaviours her new owner will need to work on. For these reasons and due to her high energy, she would need to go to a family where any children a bit older and are experienced with larger dogs and Husky antics.
Meelah has lived with other dogs, so she would be suitable in a home either on her own or with a calm, tolerant dog of similar size, but definitely no cats or other small animals. Probably due to her past history she can be a bit aloof, however on the plus side she is quite content to hang out on her own, and doesn't mind if her people are not around.
The usual Husky rules apply with regard to requiring 6ft high fences that also need to be very strong and secure, as Meelah has displayed excellent skills at finding weak spots in fences.
Typical for the Husky breed she is quite independent-minded and has a very strong hunting instinct, so walks must always be on lead and under firm control. Meelah can be quite a puller but seems to learn quite quickly and respond quite well to commands, so her new owner will need to continue working on her obedience training and reinforcing good manners.
If you have room in your home and heart for a lovable Husky girl, please apply!
Meelah will need:
* A home as an only dog or with a friendly, tolerant dog of similar size
* No cats, pocket pets or other animals
* Daily walks, always on lead
* A reasonable sized yard with grass areas for digging and an undercover area for shelter
* Strong fences and gates at least 6 foot high, secure and dig-proof
* Homes with Arctic breed experience, preferably with Huskies, will be given priority.
Meelah is not available for interstate adoption and is not suitable for apartments, homes with very small yards or rural areas.
