OMG. That poor dog must have been freezing and scared. I'm so glad somebody found him and rescued him.

Family Might Not Keep Dog Stuck To Tracks
Dog Given As Gift
POSTED: 9:24 am EST December 28, 2005
CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. -- Owners of Ice Train, a Siberian husky rescued after its tail froze tight to railroad tracks, have come forward.
But they're not sure they will try to reclaim the runaway pooch.
A construction worker noticed the dog stuck to the tracks in Chippewa Falls the morning of Dec. 19. With the help of an animal control officer and a police officer, the dog was freed about 10 minutes before a train was due.
The family has visited the pup they knew as Nobie in the shelter where he's staying. They received the dog as a gift a couple months ago.
Fifty people have filed to adopt the 1-year-old who bolted from his owner while taking an off-leash walk.
Poor pup! I can't imagine how awful it would be to be frozen, alone, and scared. I'm really glad someone rescued him!
I wonder why the owners do not want the dog back??
They received the dog as a gift so perhaps the dog was too much for them to handle. Perhaps they weren't ready for a dog. I'm glad people have come forward to adopt him. He will more than likely find a good home.Quote:

Poor dog!! I hope he finds a family, whether its with his old family or a new one!
Well, why would they not want the dog back?? I hope he finds a family that acctually stays devoted to him....
I heard about that on the news.
Huskies can be alot more dog than some people are ready to deal with - the story mentioned he ran off during an off-leash walk and that's a no-no for husky owners -- you keep them leashed at all times because they do run off, it's their nature! (unless, like Glacier, you take them where there's no where to run off to!) I think they took him cause somebody gave him away & he's gorgeous, not because they understood the breed. Hopefully he'll end up in a home suitable for huskies!Quote:

I live near there. :D
Also, it wasn't his tail that was frozen to the tracks, it was his whole body -- he was pulled off by his tail.
Ten or fifteen minutes later a train passed by on the same tracks.
