Fostering in New England!
Husky lovers… look at this gorgeous boy!
Ricky is currently fostering with huskies and other large dogs!
Ricky is a big overgrown puppy! Being a husky, he is all exuberance and drive, but he needs appropriate guidance and boundaries as well. In foster care he has been working on his social skills with other dogs. He is able to take correction from them if he goes a little overboard, and in turn can also correct others.
With people Ricky is friendly and wants to please. He will take verbal redirection, accepts it and then goes on to his next adventure!
Here he is playing with other dogs and fetching a ball!

We know from Ricky’s life in the south that he is not safe around chickens, and possibly other small outdoor animals. He has not been around cats much, but given their size they may be a problem for him to leave alone and not chase.
It would be best that no small children are in the family due to Ricky’s size and jumpy behaviors.
Ricky is a great young active dog who needs the guidance to become an awesome family member. We would love to find a family with husky/ working breed experience to continue working with him - huskies have their own quirks and for this guy, it will be best that someone knows his tricks!!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION -
Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.
Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.
Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher. We appreciate your understanding that your newly adopted dog will help others in need.
