Furever Safe Rescue announced the availability for adoption of three 10-week-old Husky-Pomeranian mix puppies named Mira, Rumi and Zoey on Oct. 25, 2025. The litter, fostered in Charles County, draws attention for its fluffy coats and outgoing temperaments, with the organization encouraging applications through its website at fureversafe.org.
The puppies, weighing around 5 pounds each at this stage, exhibit the compact build typical of Pomskies, a hybrid blending the Siberian Husky’s endurance with the Pomeranian’s spunk. Mira leads the trio with her bold curiosity, often initiating play sessions that involve chasing toys across the room. Rumi follows suit, displaying a gentle eagerness to cuddle after exertion, while Zoey rounds out the group by weaving between siblings and newcomers alike, her tail a constant blur of invitation. All three respond well to children, tolerating enthusiastic pets and games without hesitation, and they integrate smoothly with resident dogs in foster homes. Their vocalizations — soft yips rather than full howls — echo the chatty heritage of both parent breeds, making them alert companions for active households.
Prospective adopters must submit an online application detailing household composition, experience with dogs and yard access. Furever Safe, a volunteer-run 501(c)3 nonprofit founded in 2018, reviews submissions within 48 hours, followed by a phone interview and home visit for approved candidates. Adoption fees for puppies under 6 months stand at $450, covering initial vaccinations, deworming, microchipping and spay-neuter deposits. The process prioritizes secure environments, as Pomskies require consistent training to channel their intelligence and energy; early socialization prevents the stubborn streaks noted in up to 20 percent of mixed breeds, according to breed guides. Successful matches include a meet-and-greet at the rescue’s Hughesville base or a neutral site, ensuring compatibility before finalizing paperwork.
This litter arrived at Furever Safe after their mother, a stray in need of care, sought shelter in a local yard. The organization, which operates from 16100 Murphy Place in Hughesville, relies on a network of 50 foster families across Charles, St. Mary’s and Calvert counties to accommodate intakes. In 2024, it facilitated 250 adoptions, focusing on small breeds like these to match the region’s suburban lifestyles, where 60 percent of households include fenced yards suitable for moderate exercise. The rescue’s model diverts 100 percent of donations — totaling $150,000 last year — directly to veterinary costs and supplies, bypassing overhead through community partnerships with stores in Leonardtown for supply drives.
Pomskies demand routine grooming to manage their double coats, which shed seasonally and trap allergens if neglected; weekly brushing suffices for most owners, paired with 30 minutes of daily walks to satisfy their Husky-derived wanderlust without excessive barking. Nutrition calls for high-protein kibble formulated for small active dogs, portioned at one cup daily split into three meals to support growth through their first year. Health screenings at adoption reveal no congenital issues in this litter, though the breed carries a 10 percent risk for patellar luxation, a kneecap displacement treatable with surgery if caught early. Training starts with positive reinforcement, leveraging their Pomeranian smarts for commands like sit and stay, ideally before 16 weeks to embed habits.
For those considering Mira, Rumi or Zoey, the rescue notes their adaptability to apartments if exercise routines hold firm, though a yard enhances their playful dynamic. Applications remain open, with the litter expected to draw interest quickly given Pomsky popularity; similar mixes moved to homes within two weeks in past listings on Petfinder. Furever Safe urges prompt submissions to secure a spot in the rotation of meet-and-greets, scheduled weekdays from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
