This beautiful husky is Storm and he is available for adoption through Heartland. Storm is nine-years-young and enjoys playing with other dogs and humans, too. Winter weather is a husky favorite so if you enjoy taking walks in the snow, making snow angels, building snowmen or just tossing around a snowball, then Storm would be a perfect fit for you.

Storm is just a goofy guy that is ridiculously social. He is housebroken and loves his treats. Storm can be a tad stubborn, but what nine-year-old isn’t? Huskies are loyal, energetic, social, outgoing and they like to run. So when outside, it would be best for Storm to be on a leash, harness or in a fenced yard.

Don’t miss out on taking Storm home, there are a lot more snow days coming our way and you would benefit from hanging with him outside expending energy and then inside where its warm and cozy and a lounge on the couch would be welcome.
