Juniper

My story

Juniper has come a long way from when she first arrived to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 3/20 as a stray. When she first arrived, she was very confused and scared and hunkered down in the back of her kennel. With staff and volunteers working with her and showering her with TLC she has responded. She is learning to relax and trust. However, she is still skittish. Loud noises and sudden movements startle her. She wants to make friends and will continue to come out of her shell. She sits on command. At this point, she didn’t take a treat and she is not eating much possibly due to a slit in her tongue. She is going to go to the vet to have this checked out. She is very alert scoping out her environment. She’s sweet. She’s also friendly and judging from her constant tail wags she’s happy. Huskies like to run and are therefore known to escape. This beautiful girl will need a tall secure fence. She will also need frequent brushings. She walks well on a leash and she did her business in the yard. She wants to be mostly an inside dog, but would like to have a yard to stretch her legs in. As soft as she is, she would make a great snuggle companion.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Juniper, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
