| Husky Havoc RRT |
| Name: Katy (a.k.a. Lil Fox) Breed: Siberian Husky-Australian Cattle Dog mix Sex: female (spayed) Age: c. 6 - 9 months Height: 18" at withers Weight: 35 lbs (she's thin but when healthy, she won't be over 45 lbs) Coat Color: mahogany red with white blaze on her chest and merle paws (red and white speckled fur). Her tail was docked by a previous owner. Uniquely beautiful, she looks like a red fox. Eye Color: amber Physical Health: Katy is currently being treated for "kennel cough" with antibiotics and cough medicine. Since this is a highly contagious disease, she will not be released to a family until the infection clears up (estimate: 10-14 days). She also needs to gain a few pounds. Current Vet Care: She is in quarantine at her foster home and on doxycycline for the kennel cough. She has been spayed, vaccinated, and flea-dipped. Temperament: affectionate! She just wants to play with toys then cuddle with a family. Very curious and intelligent, she likes to figure things out for herself. We're still getting to know her, but her affectionate nature shines through from the start. She loves to tuck her muzzle under your chin and just lean against you while you scratch her belly. Though her tail was docked (amputated), she still wags it to the point of wiggling the entire back half of her body. She's happy playing tug with you and a rope toy, and equally happy cuddling with you on a couch. Rides well in cars, but does require a seatbelt type harness. Heartworm test: negative; on monthly preventative (revolution) Flea & tick: on monthly preventative (revolution) UTD on shots? yes: DHLPPL / 1 year Rabies / Bordetella Housetrained? yes Cratetrained? yes Leashtrained? yes Harness trained? no Good with dogs? unknown yet as she's still in quarantine Good with cats? unknown yet Good with kids? unknown yet Known Commands: Sit, Wait, Leave It, Kennel Up Sledding Potential: unknown but seems like she'd have strong agility potential For more, see her on Dogster.com and on Petfinder.com History: We know nothing about her history other than what we can deduce from her behavior and appearance. She must have had a home at some point because she's well socialized and underwent an elective surgery to have her tail docked. We don't know how or why she wound up being caught in Cleveland by the dog warden. She was taken to the Cuyahoga County Kennel on June 11, 2010. We took her into foster on July 2. Ideal Owner: Katy will need an active family with room to run. Thanks to her intelligence, she'd have great potential to be trained in sports like flyball or agility. |
