About Sidney

Sidney is a remarkable 3-year-old who found herself abandoned and running loose. With beautiful brindle and white/cream fur, her mix of Siberian Husky and Pit Bull Terrier gives her a unique charm. Sidney enjoys the company of male dogs and has a playful side, reflecting her moderately active nature. However, her Husky genes make her a bit vocal when she's excited. While Sidney is social after a few encounters, she has some handling aversions that need thoughtful addressing. She may snap when uncomfortable, but this is her way of setting boundaries rather than an act of aggression. For this reason, she's best suited for a patient, experienced adult home. This isn't a simple placement, but with time and help from a trainer funded by us, Sidney can thrive. She's house trained and up to date on her vaccinations. Ready to give Sidney the loving home she deserves? Your patience can make a real difference. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
