Animal Information: Niley is a 1-year-old female Shepsky mix with striking eyes and a beautiful coat. She's friendly with both people and other dogs, but found herself at risk for euthanasia due to her extended stay at the shelter and the kennel stress that came with it. That environment can be especially tough on dogs like Niley, so once we had a committed foster in place, we were able to step in and save her life.

Foster Profile:
Niley is a bit shy at first but very sweet and friendly! She's a gentle dog who is interested in playing with other dogs, but nothing too rough and tumble.
Niley is more human motivated than a typical Husky and comes and leans in for pats
.
She has the typical energy level of a young Husky, but is able to calm down better than expected and loves to snuggle with her people.

Niley is crate and potty trained and walks well on leash.
We think she
will benefit from ongoing structure and consistent training, but she is overall an easy going girl. She would love a home with a fenced yard if possible; breed experience would be a plus!

Medical Note: Shortly after her arrival to Seattle, Niley developed some difficulty walking and balance issues. She has been evaluated by our vet without definitive diagnosis, however, has improved significantly on oral medication with very few residual symptoms. However, we believe she will may require ongoing medication and will benefit from adopters comfortable managing these issues.

Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $400 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations Rabies and DPPV per AVMA standards, any indicated preventative care, heartworm test, microchip with lifetime registration, and recent health check with a veterinarian.
