Husky and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Cedarburg, Wisconsin

__________

Foster or Adopter Needed by 6/3/26

Blitz needs a committed foster or adopter to secure his ride from Fort Bend Animal Services in Texas to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on 6/3/26 in partnership with Dog Is My CoPilot. Without a home commitment, he cannot make transport.

Meet Blitz

Blitz is a stunning 4-year-old Husky with striking blue eyes and a calm, gentle personality to match. While his looks may catch your attention first, it is his easygoing nature that truly makes him special.

Blitz is more of a laid-back guy who enjoys taking in the world around him at his own pace. He has a lower energy level and is perfectly content spending time sniffing, exploring, and quietly entertaining himself. He also enjoys affection and happily soaks up pets and attention from people.

He is excellent on a leash and walks without pulling, making him an easy companion for daily walks and outings. Blitz has an attentive, thoughtful personality and enjoys treats and squeaky toys, though he is not overly intense or demanding.

Blitz was a total gentleman when meeting other dogs. Even when another dog mounted him during introductions, he remained calm and unbothered. He has a very “go with the flow” personality and seems comfortable around other dogs without needing to be the center of attention.

Because of his calm temperament and lower energy level, staff believe he would likely do well around children. His potty-training status is unknown at this time.

ADOPTION PROCESS:
1.) Apply: Fill out an adoption application completely and submit all necessary documents.

2.) Application Decision: approved applicants will be notified via phone call and email.

3.) Foster-to-Adopt Trial Period: After approval, you have the opportunity to do a meet and greet and bring your dog home! You get a 5-day foster-to-adopt (FTA) period to make sure it's the right fit.

4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.

5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process, we conduct a home visit either in person or via Zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.

6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI, or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $125 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.

**Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**

The husky breed is renowned for its striking appearance, characterized by piercing eyes and a thick double coat. These medium sized, energetic dogs are known for their friendly and outgoing personalities, making them wonderful companions for active families. Originally bred for sledding and endurance in cold climates, huskies are intelligent and independent, often displaying a strong prey drive. Proper training and regular exercise are crucial to keep these playful and social animals happy and well adjusted.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
