Sai

Handsome, Goofy Siberian Husky Sai Seeks an Experienced Foster or Forever Home

About Sai (Size, Age, Breed, Background)

Meet Sai

SAI IS LOOKING FOR A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME

Sai is a big, goofy, affectionate boy who absolutely adores his people. He’s about 3 years old, weighs approximately 65 pounds, and is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines. He loves being close to his family, soaking up attention, and showing off his playful personality. Beneath that silly exterior is a loyal companion who forms strong bonds with the people he trusts.

Sai’s Background

Sai is looking for a foster home or, even better, his forever family. He is a loving, loyal dog with a lot of personality, and he does best with a person or family who understands his needs and is ready to help him thrive. With the right structure and patience, the devoted companion beneath his goofy exterior really shines.

Sai's Ideal Home

Sai’s Ideal Home

Sai would thrive in a calm, structured home with a secure, fully fenced yard and an experienced adopter who understands dogs like him. He does best as an only pet, or with a carefully introduced, similar-sized companion, and with older, dog-savvy children if any are in the home. Despite these challenges, Sai is incredibly loving, loyal, and full of personality, with so much companionship, joy, and unconditional love to offer the right person or family.

Sai's Nice Traits

Big, goofy, and affectionate, he adores his people
Loves being close to his family and soaking up attention
Playful personality with plenty of silly charm
Loyal companion who forms strong bonds with people he trusts
Neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines

Sai's Needs

To be the only pet, or possibly to live with a similar-sized dog after a slow, thoughtful introduction. He has a high prey drive and is not a good fit for homes with small animals.
A secure, fully fenced yard where he can safely exercise and decompress, as he can be reactive along fences.
A calm, structured home, since he can become overwhelmed in loud or chaotic environments.
Older, dog-savvy children only. His strong herding instinct means he may try to herd running children by nipping at their heels.
An adopter committed to providing structure, exercise, ongoing training, and an understanding of his behavioral needs.

Your Next Step

Sai is a big, goofy, loyal boy who loves his people with his whole heart. All he needs now is the right person who understands his behavior and can give him the structure, exercise, and patience he needs to thrive. In a calm home with a secure fenced yard and no small animals underfoot, Sai will be a devoted and affectionate companion for life. Could you be the person he has been waiting for? If you’d like to meet this loving, loyal boy, please fill out a statement of interest. Submit an application today.

All of our dogs come spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with age-appropriate vaccinations. As an adult dog, Sai has an adoption fee of $350.

Velvet

Friendly, Talkative Tuxedo Velvet Seeks a Quiet Home Where She Can Be the Only Cat

About Velvet

Meet Velvet

VELVET IS LOOKING FOR HER FOREVER FAMILY

Velvet is a 7-year-old girl who is friendly and talkative — a pretty tuxedo with one white eyebrow and a bit of extra size, since she does love her chow. She loves to play with catnip toys and dangly, wiggly toys, and she’s very investigative — you’ll often find her in your cabinets checking them out. At night she’ll be right at your side, snuggled up to your legs and purring.

VELVET’S BACKGROUND

Velvet loves to eat and will happily remind you when it’s mealtime. She prefers canned food and only nibbles at kibble. She is eating a prescription urinary food and is on an anti-anxiety medication, and any adopter should plan to continue both under the guidance of their veterinarian.

Velvet’s Ideal Home

Velvet would prefer to be an only cat. She gets along with her foster’s cats but would be perfectly happy without other feline companionship. She’s friendly with adults but was concerned about the young children who visit, so an adult-oriented home would suit her best. She is unknown with dogs. Give her a calm household and a sunny spot to nap, and she’ll reward you with plenty of conversation and bedtime snuggles.
