About Scarlet

Meet Scarlet, a six-year-old, 44-pound Husky with an adventurous spirit and a touch of woodland fairy magic. Having spent her life outdoors, she’s looking for a home that offers a secure, grassy backyard where she can truly relax. Slippery floors are a mystery to her, so she’ll need a bit of patience while she learns the ropes of indoor living. Forget about racing across hardwood floors like an Olympian; Scarlet is more of a contemplative soul who takes her time processing her environment. Sweet and gentle, Scarlet is a fantastic companion for kids and gets along excellently with other dogs. Car rides? No problem. She’s the kind of pup who’s cooperative at the vet and enjoys meeting new people in her own charming, cautious way. Vocal and animated, she has a delightful personality and loves to sing her heart out, especially when she’s feeling a bit sassy. While she might not interact much with cats, she’s classy enough to give a quiet growl if they get in her space. Scarlet comes from a loving Husky family and would love the chance to find her forever home, preferably with someone patient who can help her transition into indoor life. Currently in Zuni, VA, she’s ready for her next adventure. Click apply to start the adoption process.
