Sara

Highlights: -Needs a 5ft fenced yard -Needs a confident canine sibling -Prefers kids aged 16+ -Needs a patient, experienced adopter #### Sara, a gentle 4-year-old Alaskan Husky weighing 31lbs, carries a heart that seeks solace and understanding. Her delicate nature and anxious disposition require a patient and loving environment. Since she's not yet experienced on a leash, a secure 5ft fence is essential for her safety, ensuring she can freely enjoy her surroundings while remaining protected. Sara approaches familiar people and takes treats, but she is still learning that being touched is safe. Her journey to self-assuredness will be enriched by the companionship of a confident dog and the patience of her new family. In the presence of a confident canine companion, Sara blossoms. Their companionship brings her comfort and helps alleviate her anxious moments, making another dog in her home necessary. A confident dog would serve as a guide for her leash training, socialization with humans, and showing her how to simply be "a dog". A home without young children is recommended, allowing Sara the tranquility she craves. Her delicate heart deserves a space where she can thrive and find comfort. If you're prepared to provide a nurturing and understanding home for a gentle and anxious soul, Sara is ready to embark on a journey of healing and companionship with you.

As a result, there is often an adjustment period when learning about life as a family pet. Because some of our dogs are very under socialized, they may not be a good fit for young children. Homes with older children will be considered on an individual basis. Some of our more fearful dogs will do best in a home with another dog and a securely fenced yard. Common skills such as house training and leash walking will often take extra time. Patience, understanding and a gentle hand are a must. The great news is, many of these dogs come around with patience and being a part of their rehabilitation is an extremely rewarding experience.
