Description:
How to Adopt Meet Misty: A Resilient and Loving Husky in Search of Her Forever Home Misty, formerly known as Snowflake, has had a challenging journey. She came to SHRNM after being abandoned by her family of four years. For most of her life, she was kept outside, even during the birth of at least one litter. Thanks to generous donations, she received a dog house and a 10x10-foot chain link kennel, which was a significant improvement from the chain that had confined her. When her family moved to another state, they left her behind in the outdoor kennel. For several months, a neighbor fed her, though Misty was left with dirty water and a filthy living space. The neighbor, afraid to approach her, would throw food into her kennel. Finally, after three long months, this neighbor sought help for Misty, and our rescue was contacted. Misty quickly became a beloved member of SHRNM. She was friendly with people, though she didn't get along well with other dogs. Her loving and submissive nature shone through. It took some time, but eventually, a young man in the Albuquerque area adopted her. He lived with and cared for his grandparents, and Misty was renamed. She slept in his bed, played with his male dog, and became a cherished family member. Unfortunately, after eight months, the grandparents felt that Misty was too energetic and decided they could no longer keep her. As the young man was their caregiver, he had no choice but to return her to SHRNM. Misty is a wonderful husky, house-trained, friendly (with a joyful bounce), and good on a leash. She’s now looking for a true forever home with a secure 5-6 foot fence, attentive owners, daily walks, and lots of love. If you're ready to give Misty the life she deserves, please contact us. Let's find this resilient and loving husky her perfect home. For more information on Misty complete an online application and contact Shirley at (575) 491-9577.
