"SYDNEY" is currently available!
Project POOCH, quite simply, changes lives. We operate a
kennel inside a youth correctional facility and pair currently
incarcerated youth with shelter dogs. The youth learn kennel management,
positive reinforcement, grooming, and training techniques. The youth
learn what it means to be depended on by another living creature and
what it means to be trusted and relied upon. And, they learn what unconditional love feels like—sometimes for the
first time. Our dogs get trained, loved, and adopted into their forever
homes. There is no limit to the amount of time a dog spends in our care,
and we are focused on the individual needs of each dog."

SYDNEY spayed female , Husky/Pittie mix, Appx. 2-year-old Husky/Pittie Mix, 60 lbs Gets along with many dogs....LOVES people!
"Sydney
is an absolute gem! At two years old, she is prime age to be your new
buddy - no puppy shenanigans here. This blonde bombshell is a bit of a
mystery mix, possibly some pitty, maybe shepherd or husky for those
ears, but 100% born to be your best friend.
While
at POOCH, we have found Sydney to be a silly girl, a cuddle partner,
and down for the adventure. Her leash skills have really blossomed with
the youth's support, and we have found her confidence on some of the
agility equipment we have here.
She
is the first dog our trainer uses to start playgroups, as she has been
consistently clear in her communication to other dogs and is able to
redirect other dogs who might not play the best yet.
Like
any adolescent dog, she does shine when her needs are thoroughly met.
Don't let that scare you off, her needs are a walk or some run around
time, and plenty of cuddles. Syd's preferred place for a nap is either
nearby, or in the sun, flat out to absorb it all.
She even got to show off how great she is at Animal Crackers Pet Supply
during their birthday party. Even with other dogs barking and carrying
on, she was ready to chill and nap when not greeting the many admirers.
If
you grew up wishing for a doggy sidekick, maybe when you watched Up!
you imagined a Dug of your own, Sydney might just have the paws to fill
those shoes."
