Stray Dog Breaks Into Animal Shelter


FAIRBANKS, Alaska -- The Fairbanks pooch who broke into the pound is now up for adoption.

The stray has been named Albert. Workers at the animal shelter say the tape from security cameras showed Albert digging under two fences Wednesday night to reach an inner area where sled dogs were tied up.

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner quotes the shelter's operations supervisor, Sandy Klimaschesky, on an explanation for the break-in: "He probably heard about what good care animals get here."

Albert is described as a black, tan and white husky mix who wasn't neutered and had no microchip. He weighs 75 pounds, with one brown and one slightly bluish white eye. His age is estimated at 2 years old.
