Description:
Looking for my forever home!Meet Atka! Atka was sitting in a cell at the pound, just waiting for someone to rescue him. We just found this beautiful boy a foster home to care for him while we look for his new FOREVER home. Atka is an Inuit name which means guardian spirit and he is such a handsome dog that we had to find a majestic name for him. Atka is very sweet and lovable. He loves everyone and is truly a joy to be around. He is a typical husky who is active and loves to talk. He would love to be your walking/running/biking or roller blading partner. He can make exercising much more fun! But, he also loves to cuddle. Also, Atka will do just about anyting for a little peanut butter. This boy cannot get enough of the stuff. He is just waiting for his forever family to find him. As with most huskies, Atka is not good with cats. Huskies, by nature want to chase cats unless they've grown up with them since they were a puppy. Atka also requires a fenced yard in his new home. All dogs from Midwest Animal Rescue must be indoor dogs. We do not adopt dogs to homes that intend to keep them outside. Atka also requires a fenced in yard in his new home.
