This dog is so mischievous it was banned from an entire US state
Jack the Husky needs a new home - but definitely not in the state of Maryland.
The internet is trying to figure out why a mischievous shelter dog is banned from an entire US state.
Twitter user @historiancole found the 4-year-old Siberian Husky while browsing a dog adoption website for the breed.
His biography on the Delaware Valley Siberian Husky Rescue states: "Jack enjoys car rides and is excellent in the car. Jack gets along with other dogs but is not good with cats. He pulls very hard on leash and will need a lot of exercise. Jack is very smart and learns quickly. Jack can jump a 4 ft fence from a stand still."
The male dog was also described as a "sweet affectionate boy" but also states that he "cannot legally reside in the state of Maryland".
Posting to Twitter on Tuesday (November 28) @historiacole said: "what the f*** did you do in Maryland, Jack?" accompanied by a picture of the naughty-looking animal.
So far the tweet has been shared over 43,000 times as users speculate why the canine could have run afoul of the law.

In 2015 a husky was sent to the kennels by his owner for a crime he didn't commit. The husky escaped from maximum security to Horsham, PA. Today he survives as a soldier of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire⦠Jack

Them: Why do you want to adopt this dog?

Me: I was moved by his story & want to help him settle whatever scores he has.
The user has been doing a bit of digging in order to discover why the animal could be banned from an entire jurisdiction.
One reply said the restriction was likely imposed after the animal attacked another cat – something authorities take very seriously in Maryland.
I just googled âhusky Maryland dog crimeâ but I donât think thatâs gonna help me figure it out

Yeah husky prey drives are nuts. We adopted a husky from WV, sweetest pup ever, but in her previous life she killed a cat. We live in Baltimore now and keep her on leash all the time!

Whatever the reason for Jack's legal issues we sincerely hope the naughty pup has found a good home.
