    This is the Adopt-A-Husky, the Siberian Rescue site we raised money for on the Husky Hike. It's a large organization with sites in several states, but I don't know what their policys are.

    http://www.adoptahusky.com


    and I've been to this rescue - Northwest Ohio Siberian Rescue

    I think they charge between $150 or $175 adop[tion fee, mostly goes towards the dogs medical care. We have visited on w of the three kennels that work with them. close to ohio & michigan. These people all sled, so there are Siberians and sometimes Alaskan huskies. They do not accept surrenders from individual owners, the dogs must come through humane shelters. This group is easy to work with.

    I found both of the rescues through the internet.


    Just to pass on some info, I didn't have much luck with some of the rescues I contacted through petfinder ads. Found that some groups had a kind of snooty attitude. So don't give up, but know that you may have to go through some searching to find one your situation is compatible with.

    Always try surrounding humane societies. The Findlay Humane Society in Ohio is very good about placing huskies, because the gal that interviews prosepective adopters owns four huskies herself, so she makes sure they go to a good husky-safe environment.

    Anyone looking for a German Shepherd Dog in Illinois can check out:
    www.gsdrni.org.
    Be prepared to fill out a long application form with references and vet references. You will have to go through a home visit and then a dog "meet and greet" after we find one that might fit into your home. This way the committee can match the perfect dog for your family.

    FLAG - For the Love of Animals, Goochland - Just north of Richmond, Virginia. A no-kill facility. My son adopted his two cats from them.


    FICAS - Friends of Ingham County Animal Shelter - Not too far from Lansing, Michigan. We adopted Abby from this organization, after finding her on Petfinders. This is NOT a no-kill shelter, so this organization does wondeful working getting animals into foster homes.
