Mushu is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

She was found in a box.

Mushu is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 1-1/2-year-old, 60-pound, female, Siberian Husky / Shepherd mix.

When she was a puppy, Mushu and her littermates were abandoned in a box beside a freeway. They were taken to a shelter, then transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS.)

She was returned 9 months later. Mushu needs lots of activity. Her new family will need to give her lots of attention.
