Meet Janis J

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
Meet Janis J, a shy and beautiful husky mix looking for a loving, patient home. She had limited exposure to humans early in life and needs someone to help her overcome her fears and gain confidence. Janis J is gentle with a soft, fluffy coat and striking brown eyes. She’s very shy and nervous around people but is slowly learning to trust.

Janis J needs a home with no children and with a confident dog companion who can help her feel safe and show her the way. She’s not ready for obedience training yet but is doing well with potty training and making progress every day.

She’s not a cuddler but will lay near you once comfortable, though she might still keep some distance. With patience and love, Janis J can become a happy, well-adjusted companion who brings joy and calm to your life.

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:
Loves and plays well with other dogs, especially her brother Jerry. Does best with dogs that aren’t overly pushy or hyper.

HOW AM I WITH CATS:
No cats (due to prey drive).

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:
No kids in the home.

HOUSEBREAKING AND CRATING:
Not fully housebroken yet; may have accidents while learning a new environment. Crate trained and sleeps in crate overnight without issue.

SPECIAL NOTES:

  • Strong on leash but eases up once walking.

  • Can hop fences; a 6-foot fence is required (climb guard recommended).

  • No soft toys due to tendency to steal and destroy stuffing—her brother has needed surgery because of this.

  • Knows how to use a dog door and will go out on her own to relieve herself.

  • Very shy and fearful of strangers; best to let her approach you on her own with some high-value treats.
