Meet Homer
Meet Homer, an approximately 2-year-old male Husky.
Homer arrived at our shelter as a stray with his buddy Marge, they were unclaimed by their owners and are now in search of their forever homes! Could that be with you? Homer is a handsome guy, he has a big blocky head and striking bright yellow eyes. Homer loves people, he leans in for pets and is always right at your side! Homer keeps his kennel sparkling clean so we believe he is potty trained as well! Homer and Marge are good with each other so we think they would be good with other dogs, however we always recommend testing all our dogs with any other potential family members prior to adoption to ensure the best outcome for all!
Please do your breed research before applying to adopt. Huskies and Husky mixes are very special dogs with unique requirements. They often have the inclination to roam and can be great escape artists. Huskies need to be active and do best with adopters that can help them burn extra energy with fun training. They can have strong prey drives, and while every dog is different, many huskies will chase cats and livestock. Grooming is also an important part of their routine, brushing them several times a week can help prevent their undercoat from matting and keep them looking their best. Huskies are a fun, active breed that many have fallen in love with over the years, but please keep their breed needs in mind when considering adding one to your household.
A Picture says 1000 words...right? While an animal's picture draws interest, the reality is that as a potential adopter most people would like as much information as possible about a pet. The Yakima Humane Society is an open admission shelter. What does this mean? Over 90% of the pets at the adoption center arrive as strays, no history of behavior or medical care is known. Adding a pet to your family is a big responsibility. Please research carefully and remember that adoption is lifesaving. Adopt Don't Shop.
