I'd like to find Leonidas(Leo), my Siberian Husky, a good home I'm willing to let him go for $150. he is 2 years old has all his vaccinations and fixed. that price includes his kennel bowls etc... The $150 is pretty firm it will be used to adopt a new buddy for my other dog. The only reason why I have to let Leo go is because he was my Ex-Girlfriend's and she abandoned him here with me. He is a Beautiful dog and I wish I had the resources to keep him. Please help me find him a good home.

I am in Humble, TX Just outside of Houston, TX

Is there any particular reason why you can't keep him but want another dog after he's gone? Does he not get along with the current dog? Are you not able to give him the exercise he needs?

I agree with Kristina!!! We could use more information on to as why you can't keep him. And why you want to get another dog after he is gone.

Huh? Says the only reason you're letting him go is because he is your exes and she left him?


........
So you want to get rid of a dog that is already probably devastated and use the money you pocket to get a new one. What resources do you lack for this dog that you don't lack for another?


I'm not even going to get started on how bad that sounds.

Ok the dog was found by friends of my Ex, then they were looking for a home for him and my Ex begged me until I said yes to take Leo in. When we broke up I asked her to take "her" dog and she didn't. He's not a bad dog I love the guy but he is too much to handle. My other dog is a 14lbs Shorkie(Miniature schnauzer Yorkie Mix). I don't want to take Leo to a dog pound because I don't want him to be put down.

Thanks for elaborating He's a handsome boy and i'm sure he will find a home. Please just be sure that he goes to someone Husky knowledgeable or at least someone who is willing and capable of owning a Husky. I'm sure you've noticed they're unlike other dogs

I think there are a few rescues in TX- perhaps email them to list him as a referral?

Texas Sled Dog Rescue is based in Houston (we're soley based on fosters). I volunteer with them. They're on FB.

Husky Haven Inc. is also another rescue group in Houston, also on FB.

How is he with other dogs? Does he try to be the alpha male in the pack (i.e. dominant over you)? Any history of aggression? Does he walk on a loose lead (no pulling when walking)? Has he tried to escape from your yard (assuming you have one)? How is he with kids?

These are the kinds of questions you'll be asked if you turn him into a rescue.

I'd be willing to take him in but I have to talk to the boyfriend first and it will have to wait until after I get back from my visit home on Christmas.

Leo Is Good With Other dogs kind of overly playful at first but then he calms down. He is the alpha over my other dog but he does obey me, a little stubborn but always ends up following the command. He pulls at first when walking then he loosens up some, always testing. He has never tried to escape from my yard. When he has interacted with kids at my home. he was not aggressive towards but he would make them nervous so there are not many interactions with children.

If you would like to meet him I'm sure we can work something out.

Please, I know someone wants this guy to have good home.
