Rocket - Siberian Husky Dog for Adoption in Carrollton, Texas

This sweet 5-year-old girl may have a speedy name, but she's much more interested in naps, good company, and enjoying the comforts of home than running at full speed!

She's past the puppy chaos and has perfected the art of relaxing. While she enjoys getting out for some daily exercise, she's definitely more of a lounge-around-and-enjoy-life kind of husky.

Don't let her laid-back personality fool you, though—Rocket has opinions, and she's not afraid to share them! She's especially vocal when it's mealtime or when she needs to go outside.

Rocket has hypothyroidism, which requires daily medication. She's also carrying a few extra pounds, so her foster family is helping her work toward a healthier weight with a low-fat diet and regular exercise. Her forever family will need to continue managing her condition and helping her maintain a healthy lifestyle.

If your idea of the perfect companion is a sweet, slightly sassy girl who would rather curl up beside you than run a marathon, Rocket might just be your perfect match!
