Meet PUPPY

Puppy (A136823) is a 1-year-and-2-month-old AK Malamute mix who weighed 62 pounds on intake! 05/24/25 Miss Puppy has arrived back at the shelter as a stray and was not picked up by her previous owner. We do not have any new information on Puppy and how she was in her most recent home, but she has been an absolute delight while at the shelter! If you are interested in adding Puppy to your home, please give us a call!04/28/25 This pretty girl is Puppy! Puppy has been through the shelter as a stray multiple times and defaulted to the borough. She is now looking for her new home and an owner who can keep her safely restrained when outdoors. She is a very sweet girl but is looking for some come continued guidance with obedience training and learning to be the best girl ever! We encourage her next owner to bring her to a basic obedience class with a certified trainer. Puppy did arrive at the shelter with another dog but we do not know the extent of her history with other animals. Please ensure you are making slow, safe, and controlled introductions with any and all new animals! Puppy has exhibited some signs of having a high prey drive, common with the breed, so if you do have smaller animals in the home, please keep that in mind. We do not know if she has ever been around of lived with children. However, she might enjoy having a family to dote on her! Puppy does have skin issues and had a biopsy sent out. The results indicated chronic inflammation, most likely due to skin infection. Her recommended treatment includes a round of antibiotics and 3 rounds of NexGard. Potential adopters should be prepared to follow up with their vet. She has also been doing very well on a novelty protein diet. Her next owner should discuss with their vet on the best ways to keep her both healthy and happy! If you are interested in meeting Puppy, please let us know!
