| Sequoia was bred and then sold to a college student in Utah. Her owner tried to keep her in his dorm, which did not work out. Sequoia constantly tried to escape, and so the student resorted to chaining her outside. Sequoia became lonely and unhappy, and finally realizing this was not the proper life of an animal, the student contacted us to see if we could take her. We were currently looking for a female for one of our animals, and gladly took Sequoia in. |

Sequoia is an alpha female who would dominate Manu, her mate, fiercely, which he took in good humor. Sequoia barks constantly, especially when strangers or other dogs walks by her enclosure. However, once inside her pen, Sequoia is a sweetie who loves to play. She will usually bring over her toys to be thrown or to wrestle with. As an alpha, she demands to be the center of attention, and would do so at Manu's expense. She was food aggressive towards him, and would steal his food when given the chance. When Manu passed away, our own executive director Leyton tried to bring Sequoia into his home. Unfortunately, his current companions would not accept Sequoia, and reluctently, he could not take her home. Now, Sequoia is awaiting a new home with a neighbor of the sanctuary, who loves Sequoia with all his heart. We are, however, concerned that Sequoia might be ill, so she currently remain with us until further investigation.
Sequoia is a low-content wolf dog, with possible malamute mix. |
