About Holden

Meet Holden! This handsome 1-year-old husky mix came to us from a rural shelter after being found as a stray. He has striking tricolor (brown, black, and white) markings and a long coat that makes him stand out. Besides his looks, Holden is a lovable and energetic boy, always eager for adventure. He’s a great companion for those active days outdoors and will appreciate being your adventure buddy. Holden is smart and eager to please, but he’s still polishing his leash skills and household manners. He loves food, which makes training a bit easier for him. He gets along well with other dogs, bringing happiness wherever he goes. However, cats are not his thing. Holden is altered and up-to-date on vaccinations, and he’s ready to find his forever home. Could that be with you?
