I dont know why these people are rehoming their 5 month old husky but i feel so bad for it. WHY DO PEOPLE GET DOGS TO GET RID OF THEM SO SOON! I will never understand. Not to judge them since i don't know the reasoning since they dont' specify but i'm sure they are prolly college kids and couldnt keep it or something who knows. Does the dog look shaved to anyone else?

hes so freaking adorable!!!

yep looks shaved and the statement of keep him inside would back the fact they shaved him cause of heat?...

thats sad, he looks so cute!

I know the feeling! I am currently trying to help a 7 mo old R/W female husky pup that is in a bad situation. It boggles the mind how people can be like that. Breaks my heart.

they said they have to move and the dog wont fit their future living situation

I almost want to email them and ask them flat out, "Did you shave him?"

Poor guy...I do hope he finds a good home....

i did ask. hoping for a response

This breaks my heart too Our dogs are so blessed to have us!

Ok, I know this is bad, but I played the 'poser'....

Here's what they said:

The re-homing fee is $100, and he comes with all this things! There are no other issues other than typical puppy behavior, we have to re-home him because of our living situation, he is a Fantastic dog and we wish we could keep him. He has not been shaved, but he did just blow his coat so it does look shorter than usual. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks,
Maddy

He's got a beautiful face. I hope he finds a good home and they don't rehome him to just anyone.

i went to look at him today and an hour before i was going to see him she just completely stopped responding to my emails. ridiculous

this made me look up our local craigslist and I found this

this one is 11 years old and they actually use the words "getting rid of him" I think that is aweful. He is in the last of his years and really, one of the divorced parties can't keep him?

sad...

that breaks my heart!....

I thought I saw this husky on another forum so I came back to check the picture in the link again and it was deleted...

This breaks my heart...how could you part with a family member that is 11 years old?! That's just wrong....
Since there are never any huskies at our shelters or rescues up here, I think I'll be looking for a husky on craigslist for my next one...
People are just so ignorant...

I got our Ranger off of Craigslist. Sometimes there are legitimate reasons. The ad for Ranger read "Deploying soldier needs to re-home husky". We weren't looking for another dog but he had me at deploying soldier.

i also got nikki from craigslist. a guy in the navy was relocating to japan and couldnt take her

Biko came off of Craigslist.

People dont really use craigslist in my area - do you guys not use Kijiji down there or something? =x

Agreed! The ad is still up. If Willow wasn't such a handful right now I would rescue this guy. I really hope he goes to a loving home.
