Husky and American Staffordshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Burnsville, North Carolina

Meet Daisy! 🌼

Daisy is a sweet, smart pitsky (Pitty + Husky mix) looking for her forever home! She's incredibly people-motivated, eager to please, and just an all-around joy to be around.

This girl walks beautifully on a leash and would make the perfect companion for hiking, camping, evening strolls, and more! She has that fun, higher-energy spark from her breed mix but still knows how to relax and mind her own business.

Daisy does great when meeting new people and has done well with other dogs, making her a wonderful fit for many types of homes. Active lifestyle? She's in. More of a homebody with a fenced yard? She's perfectly content with that too. Want a social pup for outings like breweries or gatherings? Daisy can hang with the nightlife as well!

She's around 3 years old and currently weighs about 50 pounds, though she would benefit from losing around 10 pounds to stay happy and healthy long-term.
