Tonga Husky Mix Cedar Rapids, IA

This isn’t just a handsome face—Tonga is the whole soulful, snuggly package. Tonga is a 1–2 year old suspected husky mix-- 72 pounds of glorious floof. He’s housetrained, kennel trained, and has mastered the art of being the best kind of companion: playful when you want to move, cuddly when you don’t, and always nearby with those soft, expressive eyes.

Tonga is a very sweet dog who loves people, but a home with young children just isn’t right for him. Sudden movements and loud energy can spook him (It's rare, but kids are unpredictable! He’s happiest in a calmer home with no small children. Dog-savvy kids over 10? That’s more his speed. He's great with younger kids in passing or supervised. He just prefers not to live with them ;-)

This boy is a lover—he’s great with other dogs and would thrive in a home that gives him both companionship and structure. He hasn’t met any cats yet, so we’re not sure what he’d think of them.

Tonga has so much love to give—he just needs the right match to give it to. If your home is on the peaceful side and your heart has room for one gentle, gorgeous soul, Tonga is ready to settle in and be a loyal furbaby!

Out-of-State Adoptions
We welcome out-of-state adopters under the following conditions:
