COURTESY POST: MEET SALLY FIELD!
Sally is a Shepherd/Husky mix who is about 4 years old. She is living in a foster home and is more than ready to find her own family! She’s a playful, affectionate girl who absolutely thrives in the company of other dogs — she will do best in a home with a canine friend for her to feel her most confident and comfortable.
Sally Field loves people, though she can be a little shy at first. She takes her time building trust, but once you’ve earned it, you’ll have a loyal best friend for life. Her gentle nature and sweet personality truly shine through as she becomes more comfortable.
She’s full of playful energy and adores her toys — especially stuffed animals, balls, and bones. She enjoys staying active and would love a home where she has the opportunity to burn off energy through play and walks. Sally walks beautifully on both a collar and harness, though her curious husky nose can sometimes lead to a bit of pulling when something interesting catches her attention! Speaking of husky traits — Sally Field isn’t shy about expressing herself! She loves to “talk” and will happily chat with you in true husky fashion, adding lots of personality and charm to your day.
Although she is an active girl, after a fun day of play, she’s happiest curled up on the couch enjoying snuggles with her people. While she’d always choose cuddle time over bedtime, she settles nicely into her kennel and sleeps soundly through the night.
Sally Field is still building confidence around young children, as quick or unpredictable movements can make her nervous. However, she has shown herself to be incredibly gentle — even protective — with her foster family’s 10-month-old and 3-year-old.
She’s learning more every day and continues to build confidence on walks. She’s currently walked using a gentle leader, which helps keep her more comfortable and controlled while she works through some of her fears and excitement outdoors. Squirrels, bunnies, and other dogs are all very exciting to her, and she’s still learning that she doesn’t need to chase after every furry friend she sees. She responds well to “leave it” and “no,” and already knows to stop and go when crossing streets. One thing that still really scares her is passing cars on her right side — she may freeze or panic in intersections when this happens, so she’ll need a patient adopter willing to continue helping her feel safe and secure. She also takes comfort from confident dog friends and is noticeably braver around new people when she sees her foster brother happily greeting them first.
After a tough start in life, Sally Field is learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. She may need slow, positive introductions with men and new people, but she has already made incredible progress. With patience, consistency, and love, she will continue to blossom into an amazing companion.
Sally Field is ready to find her forever home — one filled with love, understanding, and maybe another dog to show her the ropes. In return, she’ll bring endless affection, companionship, and a few adorable husky conversations along the way.
