About Chica

Meet Chica, a 7-year-old Siberian Husky mix looking for a new home due to her family's housing loss. This medium-sized dog weighs 51 lbs and is known for her gentle, loyal nature. Chica is house-trained and enjoys her quiet downtime, often seeking out belly rubs while nestled at your feet. While she can be a bit timid during walks, she has lovely leash manners and appreciates gentle encouragement. Chica has lived with children in the past but requires a home where interactions are monitored closely. After a startle-bite incident, it's clear she needs clear boundaries, including her own cozy space to retreat to. In playgroups, she engages well and usually corrects other dogs appropriately, but she can sometimes guard attention from them, so a meet-and-greet with other dogs is essential. If you're looking for a loving companion to share quiet moments with, Chica might just be the perfect fit! Visit the Pima Animal Care Center to meet her before the deadline on November 17, 2026.
