Sabaka

​

Sabaka is a beautiful 5 year old lady that is on the look out for her forever home, she is a big girl and has been with us quite some time now.

When she arrived in kennels she was unsure and didn’t interact with us very much, now she demands a cuddle and a belly rub 

​

Sabaka needs a patient calm home with a family that won’t put any pressure on her, she needs time to settle and trust. She loves to play with her ball and enjoys her walks.

​

Sabaka previously lived with a male husky but would also be happy living as an only dog.

The key to Sabaka's heart is TIME 

Sabaka is currently in kennels - Pembroke, South Wales

Nash

​

We are looking for an URGENT Experienced foster home 

​

Nash is a very sensitive boy, He didn’t have the best start in life, so now can be incredibly nervous in new situations. He needs patient, experienced owners who understand things have to be done at his pace and not to push him too much too soon.
Once he trusts you and gets to know you, he can become incredibly affectionate. But any affection has to be on his terms - he’ll let you know when he wants a fuss and equally when he’s had enough! He’ll happily shower you with kisses when you get home from work!

​

Nash loves home comforts, and you’ll often find him on the bed or the sofa snoozing the day away. He is housetrained, walks beautifully on the lead, and doesn’t react to other dogs when walking. He also likes to sing like a typical husky, whether it’s a passing siren or just excitement of walkies in the morning.

​

Nash is extremely dog friendly, and would benefit from a play mate or two in his new home. They’d need to be assertive with him though as he’ll play all day if you let him! He loves toys, although will destroy them very quickly! But a sturdy tug is his favourite and he’ll entertain himself with it! He does guard things he feels are valuable to him, such as toys, food, and even the odd bit of paper off the floor

Nash is very puppy-like in his play styles. He will paw at other dogs to play and is very mouthy with humans. He will require an adult only home with minimal / no visitors due to his behaviour. He can be very grumpy, and will let you know when he’s not happy about something.

As a wooly husky he will require regular grooming. He doesn’t enjoy being groomed, and as a result his fur is quite matted around his rear end. Once this is sorted, regular grooming will have to be done, however you will have to teach Nash that it’s not a bad thing and reassure him.

Nash is around 4 years old, and would make a great addition to an experienced home. He seems to bond better with women than men despite his past, but an adult only home is essential.

Lucan

​

Lucan has been spending lots of time with volunteers and here is what one of them had to say about him 

​

This guy is probably the smallest dog at 8Below right now, but he definitely has the largest personality! When Lucan arrived at the current kennels, he was highly stressed and visibly agitated with the whole relocation thing. He was extremely vocal and didn’t want anyone near him. I didn’t care about any of that and just took him for a walk. Consequently, we clicked straight away.

This little guy will be a lot of fun for the right owner; he’s very fit, loves to go walkies and absolutely loves having his chest and back scratched. His bright, shiny eyes radiate appreciation when he’s told he’s a good boy. He’s getting a little grubby from living in kennels and having muddy walks, but the jet black parts of his coat still manage to have a very healthy sheen to them.

As a husky, you would expect Lucan to pull a lot on the lead…it is, after-all, what he was bred-for. There is a little pulling, but nothing excessive. As long as he gets to sniff what he wants and then keep moving, he’s happy enough to trot along just in front.

With regards to other dogs, Lucan doesn’t seem to notice they exist most of the time. He’s now walked regularly with his kennel neighbour, Bailey, and they get along great, but a meet and greet would be needed.

Whilst in kennels, Lucan just grazes on his food, which is seemingly quite common amongst the huskies, he’s currently on a full raw diet but has in the past has dry food , we are trying to get some weight on him as he’s quite slender ,

This little guy will be a lot of fun for the right owner”.

Let’s talk about this: Lucan is a growler. He growls like a cat purrs. He is so friendly and lively and is now a favourite amongst the volunteers, but may be initially off putting with his vocal habits. He’s not being aggressive and he actually growls more the more happy he is. This maybe just a current thing, something he’s started doing in kennels, as he does seem a little quieter than he was.

Aside from that, Lucan seems to be house trained and stays clean In his kennel, he is responsive to his name.  This dog is an absolute star and deserves to have a nice comfy spot on someone’s couch.

Lucan cannot live with young children , he is castrated , chipped and will be 5 years old in December.

Lucan is currently in kennels in Leeds - Yorkshire
