Eska

My story

Eska is an 11-week-old Malamute-Husky mix who is sweet and spunky! Though she may be the smallest in a litter of six, don’t be fooled—this sweet girl is full of sassy surprises, easily keeping up with her bigger brothers.Eska is adventurous, playful, and growing braver by the day. She loves exploring the yard, watching her humans in the pool, playing with all the toys and joining in puppy wrestling matches—especially if it means a surprise tackle! Eska will need a fenced yard in her future home to meet her enrichment needs. When she’s ready to rest, she’ll seek out a cool, comfy spot to cuddle up or stretch out in peace.The puppies adjusted relatively quickly to their new foster home. Currently pen-trained and working on potty training, Eska uses pee pads indoors and does her business outdoors when given the chance. She’s used to being crated for car rides and goes in and out of open crates at home. She's generally peaceful, but she has found her voice and will use it for the occasional howl. Because of this, she cannot live in a home with shared walls (no apartments/townhomes).She’s playful with other dogs and enjoys the company of dog-savvy kids. Eska would benefit from a calm, confident dog in her forever home to continue modeling good manners, including reducing mouthiness with humans. She does not have experience with cats.Her spay is scheduled for July 19, and she’ll be ready to go home shortly after. If you’re looking for a smart, loving, snow-loving pup to share your adventures (and your shady spots), Eska might just be your perfect match.If you are interested in this dog, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $550.
