Husky and Hound Dogs Available for Adoption in Harrisonburg, Virginia

Meet Aurora! This sweet and adventurous girl is on the hunt for her forever home! Aurora loves to be outside and explore anything she can! She's a curious nose and can keep herself occupied. Aurora has lived most of her life outdoors, so she cant wait for all the amazing things that the inside has to offer. She is crate trained and does well in the crate. She has also met some dogs and done well interacting with them, but she seems to have some prey drive, so she would do best in a home with animals similar size to her. Aurora has done well around all sorts of people, including children! Aurora would be perfect for an adventurous family with lots of love (and maybe some table scraps). If you're interested in meeting Aurora, stop by the RHSPCA today!
