More about SKY

Sky is an intelligent, cheeky and bold Husky X Malinois who is looking for an active, experienced home. Sky is located at Battersea Old Windsor.

With people she knows, Sky is affectionate and playful, enjoying games with tennis balls and ragger toys. She has shown worry around having her harness put on by people she is less bonded with, so her owners will need to go slowly and work on this. She has also been reactive to being moved by her collar. Sky is a clever dog and has learnt to open doors, so will need owners who can be one step ahead of her at home - she likes to be kept busy and engaged so would suit owners who are looking for a fun training partner.

Sky is friendly and enjoys a game with other dogs, but sometimes has enough and wants her own space so she is looking to be the only pet in her new home.

Her new owners will need to have experience of Huskies or Malinois and be aware of their needs and traits. She has some lovely basic training in place from her previous home and is housetrained, travels well in the car, and could be left alone for short periods of time. She is naturally apprehensive around new people so would best suit a home where there are not lots of visitors, and she'll also need to live in a quieter area. It will be essential for Sky to have her own, secure garden so that she can run off lead. Recall training will need to be consistent and may take some time to achieve, so owners may wish to look at hiring secure fields where she can really stretch her legs and enjoy some safe freedom.

Sky is loyal once she knows you, but is a dog who definitely knows what she likes and does at times like her own space, which should be respected. She will need training around her handling which new owners must be committed to. If you are interested in rehoming Sky please email bow.rehomers@battersea.org.uk or call 01784 494 443.
