Weekly, B101.7 features a pet available for adoption from the Humane Society of West Alabama. We'd like to introduce you to a young, playful Husky/Shepherd puppy!

Anyone love winter? Alaska does, and she sure will melt your heart! This happy dog is Alaska, a 9-month-old female Husky/Shepherd mix. She has a thick and pretty tan, cream and brown coat. Alaska weighs about 25 pounds now but will get bigger. She will probably be around 40 to 50 pounds when full-grown.

She and her sister were picked up by Animal Control and no one came to claim them. Her sister was adopted, which left poor Alaska by herself. She was at the shelter for about a month, so it was time to get her out! Alaska is a very friendly, fun dog! She is very playful and loves to be with you. She is still a puppy, so she will need training and structure to help her develop into a well-mannered adult dog.

Alaska will require a fenced in yard if left outside any unattended. She may be a bit too big and energetic for an apartment unless she gets a lot of exercise. Alaska should be fine with children 12 and up, and she seems to get along with other dogs, but she tends to be the dominant dog. We have started her on crate training.

Alaska is up to date on her vet care, spayed, heartworm negative and is microchipped. She is on heartworm and flea/tick prevention. She is such a pretty dog! Alaska will bring a lot of joy and fun to your household! Will you be the lucky person that gets to bring her home?

If you are interested in giving Alaska the forever home she wants and deserves contact the Humane Society of West Alabama. The website is HumaneSocietyOfWA.org or reach them by phone at 205-554-0011.

See the video below of the play time I had with Alaska at the shelter.
