Natalle is a beautiful Husky mix whom is looking for a furever home after being rescued all the way from Georgia. This sweet blue eyed beauty is so sweet and is a real love!

Foster Update:

• Leash Manners.  She walks along pretty well and does not pull, on standard 6ft leash.
• Crate/House Training.  She is crate trained if you toss a piece of cheese into the crate for her to go in.  She is house trained but you need to take her out first thing in the morning and when arriving to a new place.
• Socialization.  Natalle is very calm, goes along well with kids, people in general, and other dogs. I have a high energy dog and she went along well with him.  No idea how she is with cats, we have no cats.  She was interested in birds but if on leash she is easy to control and correct.
• Energy Level and Exercise.  She seems pretty low energy, she slept most of the time. I tried to play fetch ball with her but she does not seem to be interested in balls nor sticks. She likes walks though.  
• Daily Structure and Schedule. Food twice a day (morning and evening). I provided her with food 'Taste of the Wild - Canine formula' which is not expensive and with excellent reviews.  Take her out to pee few times during the day, first thing in the morning, and before going to bed and a walk in the afternoon/evening.
• Confidence Level.  She is kind of submissive, she got scared the first few days with me but got used to the new situations very quick. 
• Obedience Training.  She is not motivated with food in general, however she does like cheese. Need to find what really motivates her in order to do training.
• Behaviors.  She likes shoes and digging in the yard.
• Personality Quirks.  She is very sweet and gentle with people. She stands next to you asking to be pet. She loves to be next to you.
• Ideal Home.  She can adapt to most places as long as she is walked daily and no shoes are left around for her to chew on.

Native to Siberia, Huskies were used for centuries by the Chukchi people to pull sleds, herd reindeer and perform watchdogging functions. They were perfect working dogs for the harsh Siberian conditions: hardy, able to integrate into small packs, and quite happy to work for hours on end. The Siberian Husky is a very light-weight sled dog with great stamina. It was brought to Alaska in 1909 by fur traders in Malamute for arctic races because of their great speed. In 1925 there was a diphtheria epidemic in Nome, Alaska and many dog teams relayed the precious medicine to the stricken city. This event focused national attention on the Siberian Husky and helped popularize the breed. The Siberian Husky was also used during Admiral Byrd's Antarctic Expeditions. An excellent pack animal, the Husky gets along well with his comrades. These dogs are gentle and playful, but willful and mischievous. This cheerful dog is very fond of his or her family. A puppy at heart, they are clever, sociable and loving, easy-going and docile. Good with children and friendly with strangers, they are not watchdogs, for they bark little and love everyone. Huskies are very intelligent and trainable, but they have a mind of their own and will only obey a command if they see the point. Training takes patience, consistency and an understanding of the Arctic dog character. This dog will take advantage if he can. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. This breed likes to howl and gets bored easily. They do not like to be left alone, so if this is the breed for you, you may want to consider having two. A lonely Husky can be very destructive. Remember that the Husky is a sled dog in heart and soul. They are good with other pets if they are raised with them from puppyhood. Huskies are thrifty eaters and need less food than you might expect. This breed likes to roam. They are not usually recommended for apartments, however they can live in apartments if well trained and properly exercised. Siberian Huskies are very active indoors and do best with a fenced-in large yard. Because of their heavy coats, these dogs prefer cool climates. One has to use common sense with respect to maintaining them in the heat by providing adequate shade and air conditioning. It is a common misconception that all Siberians have blue eyes. They can have eyes that are blue, brown, amber, or any combination thereof including eyes which are half blue and half brown, which is referred to as being parti-eyed. Having one blue eye and one brown eye is referred to as being bi-eyed. The large "snow shoe" feet have hair between the toes for gripping on ice. The Siberian Husky has a thick, wooly undercoat and a soft outer coat. It is able to withstand temperatures as low as -58 degrees to -76 degrees F. They have a life expectancy of about 12-15 years.
