I’m Skye. Strong-willed, smart, and still holding onto hope. I’m a 2-year-old Husky/German Shepherd mix with a big brain, a strong spirit, and energy that never fully shuts off — even when life gets hard. I came into the shelter as a stray with an injury to my back leg, but even then, I kept trying to move forward. That’s just who I am: curious, alert, and determined. I still want to see the world, even while I’m healing. I’m smart and observant, and I notice everything around me. I’ve got that classic Husky-Shepherd personality — active, engaged, and always wanting to be involved in whatever my people are doing. Sometimes that energy can come out as restlessness in the kennel, but it’s not because I’m a bad dog; it’s because I’m still trying to live. Underneath the healing leg and shelter stress is a really incredible dog waiting for her chance – a dog who still believes life can get better, who still wants to trust, and who’s ready to love deeply once she finally feels safe.
Ideal Home
I need a patient and kind medical foster or adopter who understands working breeds and believes in giving dogs time to settle, decompress, and heal both physically and emotionally. Someone who sees potential instead of problems.
Ongoing Health
My left hind leg is recovering, and I’m receiving the medical care I need. I’ve had treatment, I’m on medication, and the vet team is helping me heal properly.
Training & Support
My energy can sometimes come out as restlessness, but it's not because I'm a bad dog. I need peace, consistency, and a home where I can properly decompress and heal.
