Alaskan Malamute Mix

Looking for love

What do you get when you mix a Malamute, Boxer, Amstaff and Border Collie? Well you get meeeee!!!! You see one of my parents (for the purpose of this story, let’s say Mum) was a majestic Alaskan Malamute. Flowing hair and had the beauty and strength of an Amazon goddess. Sure she was headstrong and stubborn, but also was noble with a hint of cheek. She fell for a boy from the wrong side of the tracks. There was nothing purebred about him, he had a mixed heritage of muscle, working class lines with some goofiness and charisma all the same. There was just something about him. Imagine the story of Jack and Rose in Titanic if you will, without the icebergs and stuff. From my mother I have inherited my love of rough play and bounciness at my tender young age. For this reason, I won’t be suitable for any small children in the event I knock them over. But any children school aged or older will be fine. She also gave me these ears which as a tender pre-pubescent female, I hope I grow into!! If not then all the better to hear you and maybe ignore you with. That’s the Malamute gene too! I should point out that I have been taught some obedience in my foster home. I know how to sit and wait for my dinner until I am allowed to eat. Being in a house with 3 rowdy Huskies, it is every pup for themselves at dinner time! I am fed separate to prevent issues. At night I have my very own crate to sleep in and will happily curl up beside my foster sister if she lets me! My Dad’s mixed genes have brought me lots of good traits! I am social with all I meet, yet I haven’t met a cat yet so I can’t promise anything there. I must however have at least one other fur sibling who will play with me, that is non-negotiable! I have not yet shown any need to escape but am currently within solid 5ft fences. I am still a baby, so my mind has plenty of more learning to do! I eat my dinner from a green feeder to make me think and enjoy food puzzles and toys. The possibilities are endless! It is not just my mind that needs regular exercise, but I get lots of walks and plays at the local dog park to keep me fit and energetic! I am not really sure what breed you could call me, and I won’t pretend to be a designer dog by any means. But I am loving and fun and the perfect addition to any family that can meet my needs. If that could be you, please go to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for our online form. We look forward to hearing from you! Photos by Charlotte Reeves Photography

Lucy & Chief

Siberian Husky Mix

Looking for love

LUCY (left) & CHIEF (right) Hallloooo!! My name is Chief, what’s your name? This is my Mumma bear Lucy and we are on the look out for the perfect new and forever home. There is a lot of fluffy dog here to love and lots of cuddles and tail wags to go around. My Mumma had me when she was quite young and we have been a terrific twosome ever since. Living apart is not an option for us, so if you are liking what you are seeing then you better be ready to take on the 2 of us. It’s a ready-made family straight up! What we bring to the family is lots of fun, energy and good times! What you need to bring to the table is a loving family home with any children school aged or older and secure 6ft fences without any gaps underneath to allow a tunnel escape. The reason for the older children requirement is only due to the fact that we, (and me Chief in particular) are still big boisterous, bouncy puppies. Our foster parents walk us first thing every morning so we can burn up as much energy as possible to start the day and keep us fit and healthy. It keeps them in tip top shape too! Dog parks aren’t on our list of favourite places. I like most other dogs and happily play with any medium sized or larger but Mum can be a bit picky of who she makes friends with, it takes her a while to trust new doggy acquaintances. Like possums, cats should be kept out of our sight or they may end up being chased relentlessly. We are typical young huskies and would suit either a husky experienced home or one with active people that like to get out and about, go running and chase adventure (all onlead of course). Everyone needs downtime though, and we would like to spend ours curled up with you inside the home watching only the best in reality TV. I might also suggest that we would like things like stuffed enrichment toys and things to chew on during the day should you need to leave us for a few hours. I might be a Mumma’s boy, but who wouldn’t be with a beautiful young Mumma bear like mine. We are all packed and ready to move in the minute the perfect family comes along. So, if that is you, please go to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for our online form. We look forward to hearing from you! Photos by Hairypants Photography

Tonka

Siberian Husky

Looking for love

Tonka trucks are built ‘Tonka Tough!’ They are legendary and known for their durability and adaptability and almost everyone had one as a kid! Well, it’s not just yellow toy dump trucks that earn legendary status you know. Young, adventurous husky livewires can be just that too! No one welcomes a 1-year old Husky into their lives without expecting fun and energy. And yes while that is very true of me, I also bring couch cuddling and a bed warming ability to the party. For that reason, I will need a home where I have access to both indoors for cuddling and company and outdoors for zoomies and tug of war. Inside the home should have a lounge that I am allowed to snooze on and outside the home should have solid fences that are at least 6ft tall with no big gaps underneath. Tug of war can’t be played solo, so it is nonnegotiable that my new home has at least one existing partner in crime. I currently have a Husky foster sister who loves to play rough with me, but will also tell when I am getting out of line. She is the ying to my yang and just what this young loveable larrakin needs to help me be the best boy I can be. Any possible fur brothers or sisters should be medium to large sizes as small dogs look like toys to me. Cat are a very big no no too. You may have picked up on the notion that I have energy, yep lots of it. I love a good early morning run, trips in the car to the dog park and walks with the family. I do forget my manners and can be a bit strong on the lead, so I am not suitable for any young children or older families. Sledding families looking for another team member should check me out. I will need a family who can keep up with my exercise regime and also offer me other things like enrichment toys or suitable doggy day care if they leave me alone a lot during the day. Everyone will want to play with this Tonka, so if you are interested and fit the bill, please go to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for my online adoption application!

Loki

Siberian Husky

Quintessential Husky!

There is always that one guy. Ladies you know the one. Eyes that make you swoon and a face you just want to grab with both hands so you can kiss on the nose. One look and you are in love. But then you get to know them a little. They open their mouth and sometimes aren’t always the smartest one in the pack. They act a little cocky and make you shake your head. Funny thing is, you still love them, maybe a little bit more than before, even though now you don’t want to grab their face to kiss it, you want to shake them a little to get with the program…. Well peeps, if that person was in fact a dog, they would be Loki here! Don’t get us wrong. He is what we call a lovable jerk. Emphasis on the lovable. Loki just loves people, especially those who are his very own. He needs to be where you are and won’t be real impressed about being locked outside. But don’t worry, he’ll be sure to let you know! Any people in the home should be school aged or older, only because our little man here is a bit of a typical jumpy Husky! Car rides come in a close second to things at the top of Loki’s favourites list. You see there are people in cars and they also take you to fun places to walk and run. Walks are probably third on this list we speak of. No one likes to be alone, so the Lokester here would like another dog at home for company. This is where the jerk bit comes in. They should be medium sized or larger and match his love of husky play. Loki isn’t backwards in coming forward so will need a dog who can understand his play initiation rituals and not be offended by a love bite on the ear which is meant to be the playtime signal. Jerks also like to be steal food, so any other dogs in the house will need their own place for dinner and treat times, just to keep the peace! Small dogs, chickens and cats are on Loki’s no can do list unfortunately. For those of you who know Huskies, you know that they can have some escape tendencies. Loki is no exception and his paws are his weapon of choice. Therefore, he will need fences of a minimum of 5ft and with concrete or another solid material buried underneath to prevent tunnelling adventures. Loki here is the epitome of the Husky breed. Cute, cheeky, lovable with a hint of challenging mixed in. It is what us arctic people get addicted to! If Loki is someone you can see yourself falling for, and you can give him what he needs in his home, then please go to www.shamroq.org.au/adoption for his online application.

Ash & Doobie

Siberian Husky

Looking for love

We are Ash and Doobie, but you can call us Ash and Doobie. We are brothers from another mother, but have been side by side for our whole lives. We may not always see eye to eye, but usually that is over food or a toy, so we need to have our own space and eat separately at dinner time. Would you like your brother trying to lick your plate while you were eating?? We are a bit like everyone’s favourite animated duo, Shrek and Donkey. Ash (with the blue eyes) is the strong leader who is always out in front, ready to take on what the world might bring. But a bit better looking than Shrek of course, this cute Husky is no ogre! And then there is Doobie, Ash’s loyal brown-eyed follower although a bit more meek and mild. But a lovebug all the same! Unfortunately, sometimes circumstances change and so we are looking for a new family to join and make complete. Our new home should have good secure fences at least 5ft tall. We aren’t known for our jumping, but we have been known to try out our tunnelling skills, so fences should be made dig proof with wire or concrete bases. We are both as obedient as huskies get, so we won’t win you any obedience trophies, but we do know our sit, drop and shake hands. We should only be let off lead in fenced contained areas, but we do love the dog park. Maybe best though we stick to the big dog parks and not around those little undersized dogs – man they get annoying! We have been around cats, but if they run we will chase them and it could spell trouble if we catch them. We do have husky prey drives after all. We were brought up with small children and while we have never hurt them, our play can be a bit rough sometimes. So we would suit a family with school age children or older. We love to be active and go on runs or long walks but will want to come home to be with you inside as a part of the family. We are available either as a dynamic duo, or individually to suitable homes. If you think this little cute duo could complete your family. then please fill out a Pre Adoption Questionnaire at this link: http://www.shamroq.org.au/#!adoption/cfz3
