Inky loves spending time outside and likes to explore in all weathers, so he will need easy access to outdoors via a window or cat flap.

Read More →New dog listed for rescue at the Saints Sled Dog Rescue - Yumiko
Yumiko is described as a black & white Husky . Hi Everyone! My name is Yumiko My foster mum just calls me Yumi which I like. I’m a 3yr old husky. I’ve been with my foster mum in Scotland now for 3mths. I love the cold and the nice hills I get to wander here. I love sleeping at the bottom of my foster mums bed and getting tucked in at night in my fluffy blanket. I love a lie in but like to open the curtain to look out the window in the morning while I’m still in bed. I like lazy mornings but as soon as I’m asked do I want breakfast I jump up. I love long walks and running so would love my forever home to be active. When I’m left at home alone I seek out cardboard and poly bags and rip them up so my foster mum has to hide these. If I don’t get my long walks I can also scratch the door when left but this has only happened once so I’m always good being left for a few hours if I’m tired from my hill walks. I don’t have little kids in my house at the minute but I’m very gentle with all the kids I’ve met and love kisses and cuddles. In fact I will kiss everyone I meet because I just love all the attention. I also am friendly with other dogs even when they bark at me. I think I would love a brother or sister as I’m super playful. I can sit and lie down but only when I want so I may need some more work on that. My ideal home would be somewhere I can get to run and nice long walks in the hills or near the water. I am a special pup because I just have so much love for everyone I meet and I’m not a noisy husky. I will do a quiet talk if I want out or need attention but mum says I’m a unicorn of a sled dog Yumi 🐾
