Meet Vlad, a strapping young fellow. Vlad is determined yet sensitive, and in true Husky fashion, delighfully dramatic, all at once. This handsome young boy has oodles of personality and he will keep you laughing with his antics! Vlad doesn’t like green beans, but will absolutely go for frozen broccoli, blueberries, cheese and bananas! Peanut butter is good, cheese wiz is better. Vlad likes to split the evening between little naps on the deck, and sleeping in foster mom’s bed. He has a deep love of cardboard boxes that he can dismantle. He loves a good walk and a romp around the yard. He really just wants to do everything that you are doing. He could be a great running/hiking partner. Cats aren’t his type, and he would be best with older kids. With proper intros, Vlad would do well with another dog. With calm, consistent, present adopters Vlad will become a steady, and reliable friend.
Like all Huskies, GSDs and other working breeds that we have in rescue, Vlad will need training, consistency, boundaries, and plenty of activity and socialization, in order to be a well-balanced, well-behaved dog. This sweet boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that she needs. Because of that, Vlad's ideal owner will have prior Husky, or similar breed experience. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills and manners.
Vlad's adoption fee is $300, all of which goes back into offseting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs. We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped. Please visit http://heartlandgsrescue.rescuegroups.org/info/adoption for more information about our adoption process and requirements, and to apply.

Why are Sponsorships & Donations so important?
HUGS provides dog food, supplies, necessary vet care (emergency, acute, routine), heartworm and flea/tick preventative to the HUGS foster dogs while they look for their forever homes. This can be quite costly and challenging in many ways. Additionally, some of the dogs that we rescue arrive sick or injured and require hospitalization, expensive surgery or long-term medications or other treatment. This places a huge strain on our vet fund, and can affect our ability to help future dogs.
Sadly, without sufficient funding to transport, vet/treat, feed the dogs that we take in, we could not continue saving them. As a volunteer group that runs solely on donations and adoptions fees, we truly need your support.
