Beatrice is a beautiful Malamute/Husky mix with the most amazing blue eyes. She is 7 years old and has been through a lot in her life. Beatrice came to us in terrible condition; she was overweight, incontinent, and suffering from a severe bladder infection. After a visit to a specialist, it was discovered that Beatrice was born with a congenital defect that affected her urination control, and she needed surgery to help with her incontinence. Beatrice has since had the surgery she so desperately needed and has lost over 25 pounds. She looks and feels much better, but she has always been a sweet, darling girl. She is considered a "medical" dog because she needs daily medication to manage her incontinence.
Ideal Home
The perfect home for Beatrice would include lots of walks, hikes, and car rides, and a family who is devoted to her well-being. She loves to meet people and dogs on her walks and enjoys plenty of pets and attention. She would do best in a home without small children, small dogs, and cats. She likes larger, mellow dogs but isn't overly playful. Being a husky mix, she loves spending time outdoors and still enjoys her walks even in warmer weather.
