Adoptable Dog of the Week - Willow

Published A Few Days Ago
ADVERTISEMENT

Don’t let her wild looks fool you – this girl is as sweet as they come! Our Adoptable Dog of the Week is Willow, a little under 2 years old  Siberian Husky and  Alaskan Malamute mix from Boise, Idaho. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, de-wormed, current on flea and tick meds, and micro-chipped. Willow does well with other dogs but needs a home without cats (or chickens).

Willow’s full of life and mischief – not a single day will be boring when you have her by your side. Energetic, smart, and playful, she’s a joy to be around. Willow also has a sweet and affectionate side to her and is a big hugger so expect lots of loving with this gal! She is also house trained and crate trained, and a big people pleaser, so there’s no saying what other tricks she might learn with a devoted owner to teach her. When it comes to big crowds, she can still be a bit shy, but she is working on overcoming it.

Willow does great with other dogs and would love a canine companion that’s as playful as she is so they could be partners in crime. Even so, she would do well as a single dog in the family, too, as she knows how to entertain herself – all she needs is a stick or a ball and she’ll be engaged for hours on end. When it comes to cats, though, she’s not as friendly (the same is true for chickens, and probably other small animals), and needs a home without any cats in the family. 

If you are mesmerized by Willow’s exotic looks and think her personality sounds like she’d fit right in with your family, contact  Northern Star Dog Rescue to learn more about her and the adoption process.
