Hi my Name is

WILLOW (husky)

I've Been Here Since: 2010-09-01
DOB: Jan 2008 Approx
Gender: Female
Size: Husky Size

My Behavior:

This blue eyed beauty was found running down one of the most deserted highways in California. Our founder Tia Torres, spotted her as she nearly became road kill from a big semi truck. There were no homes around for miles so the question became who dumped this poor dog in the middle of nowhere with no way to defend herself? Despite how horrible a former owner had treated her, she immediately jumped into the car, tail wagging non-stop and oh those slobbery kisses. She had many to share. Willow is a very outgoing and happy go lucky girl. She will behave around other dogs but she will need to be the only princess in the castle. Her photo doesn't do her justice. When you see those blue eyes against that black velvet coat in person, it just takes your breath away.

Help Support one of our Dogs

We have so many dogs that could use a little help to not only get them through each day but also help the non-profit keep our doors open. You can either pick one of our PIT PALS or pick a dog from our DOGS FOR ADOPTION. Remember, by doing this, you can come out and visit your sponsored Pit Bull in person and spend the day together. Be that special person in their life and show them that someone cares more about them, than the former owner who dumped them here. Help us, to help them.

    she is beautiful. about how much money do you think it would be to adopt her? I live in new hampshire.

    I really want to adopt a dog. the thing is my husband is standing in the way. We have a little boy and one on the way. I love this dog. and really would love to bring her home. I live in KY. It says shes good with other dogs we have a small poodle named lego who really needs a friend. How much do you think it would cost us to adopt her? And do you think she would be a good protector to the kids.

    A couple of things…………………”He” is a she. When you read the description about Willow it states that while she gets along with other dogs, she needs to be the “princess of her castle” which I take as being an only dog…………….site does say they adopt out of state but to a household with no other dogs. Additionally- huskies like to run (I’ve owned one before). They are fantastic escape- artists.

    I saw her on Pit Bulls and Parolees ! She is sooooo lucky !

  8. Lauren Armstrong on November 18th, 2011 1:47 am

    Gosh, I saw the episode where she was rescued and it broke my heart. How could such a beautiful dog be so cruelly abandoned?? I’d give anything to adopt her, she reminds me of my old husky so much. I love all dogs but huskies will always have a special place in my heart. I really hope she finds a loving forever home! But if she’s still unadopted in a few years I’d definitely love to take her home with me.

  9. Sundra on November 28th, 2011 2:04 pm

    She is lovely looking dog… She looks like a husky… and she has the bluest i’ve ever seen!

  10. Melinda Shotts on December 10th, 2011 5:13 pm

    I also saw the episode where Willow was rescued. I can’t believe that she hasn’t been adopted yet, she’s so beautiful and sweet. I would love to adopt her. Do the same rules of having other pets apply to non-pitbulls? What is it that makes you feel that Willow needs to be an only child? I have two cats and my husband has a Burmese Mountain dog mix (Rowdy). He is quite well trained. (My husband does pretty well training dogs for someone with no formal training himself! lol) We are buying a 5 acre horse property, and I know Rowdy would love to have a friend. Where I am renting now, the landlord has a heeler mix and she and Rowdy have such a good time playing together. I hope someday to be able to adopt a pitbull, but I haven’t gotten my husband totally convinced yet. I volunteer at the Longmont, CO Humane Society. With Denver’s ridiculous pitbull ban, the surrounding shelters are overflowing with pitbulls. Longmont’s Humane Society dog population is always more than half pitbulls. I had never had the opportunity to be around them until I started volunteering, and immediately fell in love with them. Maybe someday……

    My dream dog ♥ I have always been in love with the Breed

  12. MARY on January 7th, 2012 5:37 pm

    I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS DOG! I love black-tri colored dogs especially when its a austrailian shepherd or border collie, and those goregous blue eyes are just captivating and even the brown and amber eyes get to me. My town that I live in is full of pits, the neighbors behind me have an american bulldog and two bull terriers(spuds lookalikes). My dog and bullies run back and forth all day long, at least the fence is in between them. Tia and family and crew keep up the good work and dedication you are doing!

  13. Maluhia on January 11th, 2012 4:23 pm

    I can’t believe she hasn’t been adopted yet! Huskies are an amazing breed – extremely smart and excellent escape artists.

  14. Suzy on January 20th, 2012 5:24 pm

    I LOVE watching Pit Bulls & Parolees, I have to DVR it because I am so busy going to school, to become a Vet, I too want to open a rescue-pet motel (being a soldier, I really want to gear it to soldiers that have to put their furry babies in pounds or to sleep because they are deploying or moving to another post).
    I was FINALLY able to catch up on my recorded shows… WHAT a BEAUTIFUL girl!! I was curious to see if she was still here & she is… I am surprised… I love huskies, I had one as a little girl she moved with us out here to MI from CA when I was little & passed when I was about 9 I LOVED that dog!! I hope she finds a forever home VERY soon..
    Thank you for what you do… Places like this & people that do what you do I idolize!!

  15. Melanie on January 21st, 2012 11:00 pm

    Wow. She not only looks like my dog, but her story is pretty much exactly like his – dumped on a highway and ran into my car when I stopped for him! She is so lucky to have been found by Tia and I hope she finds a great home!!!

  16. Ashley on January 28th, 2012 10:39 pm

    I wish I could adopt her, but I’m living with my soon to be in-laws and they have three cat’s here, one of them being my fiance’s black cat, Salem. I hope I can find a dog as beautiful as her closer to home here in WI that my fiance and I can adopt. Wish you the best, Willow. You deserve it.

  17. Brandy on January 29th, 2012 1:22 am

    I am in love with this dog just by seeing the pictures. I wish I had the yard that this dog needs so I could adopt it. I have been looking at the local shelter for a dog, but have yet to see one as beautiful as this. I would not mind having a pit bull, but here in Missouri my homeowners insurance will drop me if I get one.

  18. Raven L. Johnson on February 5th, 2012 12:49 am

    I watched the episode when you got her. Thank you for saving her, i look up to you.

  19. Pippit Carlington on February 6th, 2012 3:43 pm

    I saw the episode when you found this one. It’s quite possible that she just escaped from somebody’s yard. She actually looked in pretty good shape like somebody had been taking care of her.

    If I were to take an educated guess about her lineage, I’d say she is probably a husky/cattle dog mix.

  20. Amanda Newton on February 9th, 2012 5:24 am

    I have watched episode and just remembering this one has made the tears start rolling once again omg Tia your my hero and angel among us!

  21. Ed on February 11th, 2012 5:34 pm

    Willow is such a beautiful dog. I’ve always wanted a Husky or Shepherd. I wish you adopted out of state to current dog owners. I would take her in a heartbeat. I currently have a Husky/Shepherd mix named Colby Jack. He has one blue and one brown eye. He is a rescue. He was found in a field limping, and upon x-ray found him full of shotgun pellets. The vet picked out all he could, but there are still 50 or so pellets in his hind quarters. He is such a loving animal with a huge heart. I also have a Pit/Shepherd named Marley. My then-fiance agreed to watch him for a friend of hers for the weekend late in 2009 when I was in Iraq. They never came back for him. She only kept him because she knew how much I wanted a dog. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body and loves any person or animal he meets. He loves to play!

    I love what you guys do, and I wish I could adopt Willow. She would be a member of a loving family and well taken care of here.

  22. Amanda on February 11th, 2012 10:58 pm

    She is beautiful, but she is a husky. They are a breed that requires a leader of the pack. I’ve owned huskies for over 10 years now and currently have 4, they are different from other breeds, mine can break out of his kennel in the dog room, open the door and jump clear over a 5 foot fence, lol if we let him. I swear they are one of the best breeds to own if you know how to train them and care for them. I would suggest if your looking to adopt her research the breed, if everything fits you will NEVER find a better dog than a rescue husky…Sorry, I love the show and you guys inspire me to no end but a I am a little bias :-) Thank you so much for all you do for the dogs and the people everyone needs a second chance, man and dog.

  23. Grace on February 12th, 2012 9:31 am

    I would love to adopt this dog, but, I have other people in the house who are not ready for a dog, plus we have a Yorkie and two cats, not to mention a chinchilla. I just couldn’t give her the home she seriously deserves.

  24. Amanda on February 13th, 2012 4:06 pm

    I love Bitpulls but Huskies are #2 for me :) .. we now live in an apartment though. They allow pets but I hate knowing my baby wouln’t have a yard with free run. Maybe if I came across a “lazy” LOL.. we hope to visit in New Orleans now!

  25. Alisa Albrecht on February 17th, 2012 8:40 pm

    I wish I could have her, i love husky’s so much. I seen the episode that she was rescued in, I can’t believe that someone would do that to a dog. Where I live people always abandon dogs but no one cares about them. I see the dogs a lot they come to my house, i try to feed them but I cant feed them all and the animal shelter won’t take them all.

  26. Rochelle fishman on February 19th, 2012 11:29 pm

    I really don t understand what people are thinking when they dump dogs . If i was in a position i would take her in in heart beat. I already have 2 one being a pitt that was dumped in the street.
    Shame people treat dogs like throw aways . Breaks my heart

  27. ember on February 23rd, 2012 4:10 pm

    i used to have a husky mix named siben but he got hit by a honda

  28. Brianna on March 22nd, 2012 9:45 pm

    I watched the episode when willow was rescued and she is so beautiful. I wish I could adopt her but live in New York with my grandma and mom which both have dogs and I have a cat also so it wouldt work out.

  29. tyr rox on May 30th, 2012 2:04 pm
