Meet Darby

Darby is a beautiful 6-year-old Siberian Husky with a gentle nature and a heart full of love. With her striking brown and white coat and calm personality, she is quite unlike the typical high-energy husky many people expect.

From the moment you meet Darby, her sweet temperament shines through. She happily approaches for a pat and enjoys being close to her people. She is affectionate without being demanding and loves nothing more than relaxing in the sunshine or curling up for a cuddle indoors.

Darby has lived with children, including newborn babies, and is very calm around them, generally choosing to quietly coexist rather than seek attention. She sleeps inside and is accustomed to having access to both the house and yard.

While Darby can be a little anxious at times, she responds well to calm and confident handling. She knows several basic commands including sit, stay, lay down and go to bed. She is not currently polished on lead walking and would benefit from some continued guidance and consistency.

Darby has previously spent time off lead in secure areas and would generally stay close to her owner, checking in regularly. She can be nervous during storms.

In the home, Darby is a remarkably relaxed husky. During her assessment she calmly sat beside visitors, enjoyed affection and showed a very easy going nature. She was observed greeting people politely without jumping up or becoming overexcited. Those who have met her describe her as one of the most chilled huskies they have encountered.

There have been some concerns raised about possible food guarding behaviours, however these have not been fully assessed and may be linked to anxiety or uncertainty. For this reason, we feel Darby would be best suited to a foster home initially, where her behaviour can be properly evaluated and supported if needed.

Darby has never shown aggression towards adults, children or other dogs, and has no history of biting. She does not dig, escape, climb fences or create problems around the home.

Due to significant family circumstances, her owner has made the difficult decision to seek a new home where Darby can receive the time, attention and companionship she deserves.

Darby is looking for a calm, loving foster home willing to help her settle, build confidence and show her what life can be like with support. We believe that with the right environment, she will make a wonderful companion.

Tigger | 1yr old | Male | Siberian Husky
Located Melb

If you’re looking for a loyal companion, adventure buddy, and best friend all wrapped up in one handsome Husky package, then we’d love for you to meet Tigger.

Since coming into foster care, Tigger has been an absolute pleasure to have in the home. He has settled in beautifully and has shown himself to be a loving, intelligent, and well mannered young boy with so much to offer his future family.

Tigger currently spends most of his time around adults and has also spent time with teenagers. Based on his gentle nature and friendly personality, we feel he would be well suited to an active family who enjoys the outdoors and wants a dog to share life’s adventures with.

Tigger loves his morning and afternoon walks and enjoys being involved in whatever his people are doing. He approaches life with enthusiasm, has a playful spirit, and is always ready for the next adventure.

Tigger is great with both male and female dogs and enjoys the company of other canines. He has a social nature and has shown himself to be respectful and friendly with the dogs he has met.

One of the things that stands out most about Tigger is his willingness to learn. He is a quick learner, eager to please, and has adapted beautifully to life in foster care. He travels well in the car, has excellent house manners, and is fully house trained. He has not had a single accident indoors and will always let you know when he needs to go outside.

While Tigger enjoys spending time outdoors, he is very much a family dog who loves being close to his people. He is mainly an indoor companion and enjoys relaxing with the family when the day’s adventures are done. At night, he happily sleeps beside his foster carer in the bedroom, content simply knowing his people are nearby.

In the short time he has been with us, Tigger has given so much love, laughter, and companionship. He is playful, affectionate, funny, loyal, and full of personality. The kind of dog who makes you smile every day and quickly finds a special place in your heart.

Tigger has been an incredible foster dog and now deserves a family of his own. We have no doubt that whoever is lucky enough to welcome him home will gain a devoted companion and a very special friend.

Could Tigger be the missing piece in your family?

Stella | 4yr old | Siberian Husky
Located Melb

Stella is a beautiful Siberian Husky with a larger-than-life personality and so much love to give. Full of energy, affection, and husky sass, she is the kind of dog who quickly becomes the centre of the home. Whether she’s heading out on an adventure, playing fetch, chatting away with her signature woowoos, or curled up on the couch for cuddles, Stella brings joy and entertainment wherever she goes.

💖 Best Qualities
Stella is incredibly affectionate and thrives on being close to her people. She loves belly rubs, roughhousing, cuddles on the couch, and sleeping snuggled up beside her humans at night. She has a playful, happy nature and has won over everyone she has met in foster care, including children.

🐾 Training & Manners
Stella already knows sit and shake and is very food motivated, making her eager to learn. She is still working on commands like wait and lay down, along with calmer lead manners and polite greetings when excited.

🚶‍♀️ Exercise & Energy
This girl has energy to spare and would suit a very active home. Stella would make an amazing walking, hiking, or running companion and loves exploring the world around her. Once she has had her daily exercise, she settles beautifully indoors and is happy to snooze the day away beside her people.

🐕 Social with Other Dogs
She can become overly excited when greeting new dogs, but her intentions are friendly and playful.
She would suit being an only dog

👧 Great with Kids
Stella would suit an older child house hold that are dog savvy.

🗣️ Typical Husky Personality
Like many Huskies, Stella is vocal and expressive. Expect cheerful morning woowoos when she’s ready for breakfast or a walk. She’s full of personality and loves interacting with her humans.

🚗 Car Travel
Stella can be a little anxious in the car and prefers being close to her people while travelling. With reassurance and some patience, she settles much better after exercise.

🏡 House Training & Home Life
Stella is house trained and will usually let you know when she needs to go outside. She also absolutely loves being brushed and pampered, making grooming time easy and enjoyable.

🍖 Food & Diet
Stella is very interested in food and treats and may need ongoing training around food manners, particularly around children. She can be prone to stomach upsets, so her diet will need to be managed carefully.

⚠️ Important Information
Stella is a talented escape artist and will require an experienced, secure home committed to husky proof fencing and supervision. She is clever, athletic, and capable of opening doors, digging, and finding opportunities for adventure if given the chance. She also experiences some separation anxiety and may scratch at doors initially when left alone, though she does settle with time.

🐱 Other Pets
No cats or pocket pets.
She may suit a home with medium-sized dogs, though care should be taken with very small breeds due to her excitement levels.

Stella is a fun loving, affectionate, adventurous husky looking for a home that understands the breed and is ready to embrace all the personality, energy, and love she has to offer.

Scout | 2yrs 3m | Male | Siberian Husky
Located Melb

💖 Best Qualities
The perfect teenager doesn't exist...or does one??!! Well we seemed to have found a canine one as perfect as they could get! Meet Scout, with his textbook husky markings, gorgeous grey eyes and desire to love and live life to the fullest, this one has won hearts left, right and centre...and is now ready to find his forever perfect home.

🐾 Obedience Star
Amazingly obedient! Even does a bit of agility. Occasionally he tests you by doing something naughty, but one eye is on you, waiting for a cue as subtle as a cough, and he stops and gives you that “I wasn’t really going to do it, was just testing you” look !
🚶Walks and Doggy Diplomacy
Walks: Like most huskies he will walk as badly as you let him. Can be chatty and eager to meet other dogs. But can also be the picture perfect heel walking dog. This one we must say, all depends on the walker, because he is willing to comply and curtail his enthusiasm if properly asked to.
Meeting doggies: He is excited and chatty at the start. Needs to be kept calm so that he doesn’t overwhelm the other dog. But once the first few minutes of the meeting have passed he turns into a respectful and loving playmate.

🐕 Chatterbox
Gets very chatty while greeting his humans when they come home, or if jealousy woes come on when his doggy siblings get the fuss and belly rubs.

🌩️ Weather Warrior:
Sooky boy gets very worried with thunder and loud sounds, comes to his humans when a very concerned look in his cute mascara lined eyes “Do I need to worry about that noise?”. But he gets over it if the humans act like it is no big deal and coax him to get along with living life normally.

👶 Kid-Friendly Potential
Kids love him and he loves them back. His foster family had guests with kids 6, 10 and 14 come over and he won their hearts, they declared him the bestest dog they've met. He was lying in the youngest' lap taking a snooze by the end of the evening.

🐱 Cat & Pocket Pets & Small Dogs
Not observed but best avoided

🚗 Road Trip Ready
He is comfortable in the car.

🏠 House Training
Fully house trained. Not a single accident or spray even when he first came to his foster home.

🛁Bath and grooming
No issues at all.

🛌 Sweet Slumber:
Unfussed, is equally happy lying in a bed or on the floor. Come bed time, he feels an irresistible pull towards his bed so gives in, but if the humans are still up, he wills himself out of his cosy warm quarters every now and then, to lovingly say I'm here for you, and then rushes back to bed. Did we say how adorable he is?!

🍗 Foodie's Delight
Not fussed. In the first few days he inhaled his food but as he settled in, food has become optional. Eats but not in a hurry even if there's another husky eying his food. He won't go hungry but in loving life, food is low on his priorities. Treats on the other hand... have the potential of getting him over excited so calls for a bit of caution and experience.

ℹ️ Extra info
If his humans are out, he spends the time snoozing. Not a destructive thought towards toys or things.
It is not uncommon for him to decide to unite a stray shoe or sock with its human owner. Just brings them over and drops them at the owner's feet.
If he's sounding like the perfect husky, he really is! Very rare but sometimes glimpses of potential wild teen mischief come through, hence we're looking for an experienced husky household that can watch out for these, keep excitement levels down and calmly say a firm “No” cause that's all it takes to make him perfect again. An adorable, loving, gorgeous hunk…you'll love every second with Scout!
