Meet Cora

Cora – Gentle, Affectionate, and Easygoing Meet Cora, a sweet, 11-year-old, 55-pound Husky mix who proves that age is just a number! Lovely Leash Manners: Cora walks beautifully on a loose leash and will happily come right alongside you when asked. She trots along with an upbeat spring in her step, making walks a pleasure. Cool and Collected: She’s non-reactive around dogs, people, squirrels, rollerblades, and scooters. When meeting other dogs, she stays relaxed and responds calmly when they set boundaries. Affection Enthusiast: Cora loves pets and may nuzzle or gently paw at you to request more when you stop. A Peaceful Night Owl: Cora settles comfortably in her bed and sleeps through the night. She has done well in her pen and crate area, though she managed to escape her foster pen on her first night. Cora may enjoy life with a compatible canine companion or as a solo dog with opportunities to make dog friends. Her adopters should also schedule a veterinary visit to discuss her dental health and any additional senior-care needs.
