About Winifred

Meet Winifred! This charming young Siberian Husky mix has been patiently waiting for a family for over a year. Rescued from rural Texas, she was one of three feral sisters, and while her siblings have found their forever homes, Winifred is still looking. Though she’s a bit shy at first, she’s affectionate and will snuggle close while you sleep, though she might dart away when you wake up. With time and kindness, Winifred will learn to trust. She enjoys being petted and craves someone willing to show her the joy of life. While she does have a tendency to munch on others' food if it's left unattended, her food aggression is no longer a concern. Winifred is low energy and would thrive in a calm environment, making her suitable for families with children or retirees. She gets along well with other dogs but does not coexist with cats. Can you help her discover what life can truly be? Adoption fee is $350, which includes transport to the Midwest, Northeast, or Southeast. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
