If you’re in a situation where you can longer keep your pet you may wonder, "How do I give up my Husky? Options for giving up your Husky include surrendering him to a shelter, signing him over to a rescue, or rehoming him yourself. No matter which you choose, take the time to do some research first to make sure your Husky has the best chance of finding a happy, loving home.
The procedure is usually fairly simple. You’ll meet with an intake specialist, pay a fee, and hand over your dog. While that itself is straightforward, you should also take the time to do some research before signing over your Husky.
Learn about the shelter’s save rates, policies regarding how long they’ll keep a dog, and how they handle dogs with health or behavior problems. Doing some research will give you some insight into the potential outcomes for your dog.
A reputable private rescue is a great alternative because they are usually able to keep pets indefinitely if needed, but it can be difficult to find one with space. Look for a rescue that focuses on Huskies and start there. If you’re willing to be put on a waiting list, that may increase your chances of finding a great rescue that will take your dog.
Would you like to have a say in what happens to your Husky? If so, then rehoming your dog yourself is the best option. If you’ve never found a home for a dog before then the task can seem overwhelming, but there are some resources available with advice and helpful tools to assist you in finding the perfect home for your pet.
