My story

Meet Rebel – Your Loyal, Laid-Back Shadow with a Watchful Heart Quick Facts: Breed: Husky Mix Age: 7 years Weight: 65 lbs House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes – but doesn’t need to be crated when left alone Good with Dogs: Yes – with slow, proper introductions Good with Cats: Not tested Good with Kids: No Energy Level: Low – calm, observant, and prefers relaxed company Fence Required: Not needed Special Traits: Prefers men, slow to trust but deeply loyal once bonded Why You’ll Love Rebel: Calm, quiet, and easygoing with a gentle energy Housebroken, crate trained, and can be left alone without worry Great leash manners – enjoys leisurely walks Watchful and intelligent – prefers calm observation before jumping into action Lovable and affectionate once he trusts you Perfect for a quiet, steady home with a strong, confident leader About Rebel’s Breed Mix: As a Husky mix, Rebel brings together the independence and intellect of a working dog with a calm, contemplative nature. Huskies are known for their loyalty, and Rebel embodies this deeply—once he chooses his person, his devotion runs strong. He’s not your high-energy, vocal husky stereotype; instead, he leans toward a peaceful, contented presence. Rebel’s Story & Personality: Rebel is a true gentleman who appreciates the quiet things in life. He’s the kind of dog who prefers to stand back and watch the world before deciding how (or if) he wants to join in. He’s low energy and prefers slow-paced walks, rolling in the grass, or simply soaking up the sun. He doesn’t go for rambunctious play or chaos—he’s more “stop and smell the flowers” than “fetch and frisbee.” He bonds best with men and may take longer to trust women, but with patience, he warms up. Rebel is good with other dogs after a proper introduction, especially those of similar size and calm temperament. He’s not a fan of small, frantic pups and does not tolerate overly excitable behavior. Rebel will guard his person by warning others (people and pets) with a low growl—this is his way of saying “I need space.” With gentle correction and strong leadership, he respects boundaries and responds well. He’s housebroken, does fine being left alone, and is crate trained, but rarely needs it. Rebel’s Ideal Home: A calm, quiet home without kids A male adopter who can offer confident, gentle leadership A household with no pets or one calm dog of similar size Someone patient, steady, and respectful of his need for space and trust-building No fence needed—Rebel is a great leash-walker and doesn’t wander Ready to Make Rebel Yours? Rebel is fully vetted, housebroken, and ready for a home that understands and appreciates his quiet strength. If you’re looking for a gentle, watchful companion to share peaceful days and loyal love, Rebel could be the perfect match. Apply to adopt Rebel today at www.crisisdogsnc.org! Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. To ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: http://crisisdogsnc.org/dog-adoption/. Please note that questions via email or social media channels may not receive a response without a completed application. As part of our commitment to responsible adoption practices, we require excellent veterinarian references and conduct virtual home visits. Additionally, your prior or current dog must be on year-round heartworm prevention. We provide transportation by both land and air whenever feasible. All assessments regarding breed and age are conducted by licensed veterinarians. We look forward to assisting you in finding your perfect canine companion!July 5, 2025, 10:43 am

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Rebel, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
