Siberian Husky rescue
Here at Huskies for homes we are a privately funded rescue organization, specializing in Siberian huskies.
Although, we won't turn our backs on any fur babies in need.
Unfortunately, many of the dogs that come here are classified as unadoptable from other organizations, whether it be medical or behavioral issues. this is when we usually step in.
As we are not a government funded rescue we are not required to euthanize any dogs and tend to have more time than the larger organizations to offer the one-on-one training some so desperately require.
The family bred & raised puppies here pay for what can sometimes be very costly vet/medical bills, feed, kennel upkeep, and all other costs associated with our furry rescues.
That being said we strive to breed the best quality, medically cleared, temperament tested,
gorgeous puppies possible, doing all we can to ensure that we will never be left rescuing one of our own.
From their amazing personalities, outstanding temperament's, beautiful coat variations,
ranging from traditional to the hardly ever seen, we do our best to keep our puppy
prices fair and in line with our operating needs. These highly intelligent breeds are not for everyone,
but if you have done your research or have previous experience with the breeds, then come on
out and see us we just might have the perfect baby for you.
Please feel free to contact us 24/7 with any questions or concerns you might have.

Meet Takony (wolf)
This sweet girl is not for adoption, as she was promised she would live her life out here, and that she will. Her picture is here as a symbol of what we do and why we do it. Takony has been with us for over 12yrs now and she was a little over two when she arrived, weighing right at 24lbs. Which makes this sweet girl our most senior and longest serving resident, she happily greets every dog that comes through our gates with a wagging tail and what looks like a constant smile. Weighing a healthy 65lbs, with not a mean bone in her body, she still won't freely allow anyone to pet or rub on her although she does sneak in to get a lick or two in on your hand when she thinks you're not looking. She happily tags along off leash every day to help with all the daily chores greeting the other residents. I will not get into all the details of her rescue, but I will say that she was one of the worst abuse/neglect cases I've ever personally witnessed. Yet everyday this sweet girl, who was shown the very worst of humanity, chooses still to follow, so loyal, trusting, with an unbreakable spirit, despite the cruelty she has seen she is truly living proof of why they are called
mans best friend.

Some Unknown Fun
Siberian Husky Facts
This breed of dog actually did come from Siberia hundreds of years ago, and belong to the spitz genetic family of dogs which have not been influenced by wolves. The name "esky" was a name given to describe Eskimo dogs.
THEY SAVED A TOWN When an aircraft couldn't fly through near blackout conditions to deliver medicine to the town of Nome, Alaska. In 1925 a team of sled dogs took charge; they covered over 600 miles to deliver medicine across the country and save lives. As with all decisions to get a family pet, do your research first and make sure you fully understand the nuances of each breed. It is not fair to bring home a pet just because they are beautiful, you need to be ready to give them everything they need to live a happy life. Obedience training is a big part of it. Do it right and you'll have a beautiful dog that's also a fantastic companion for the entire family.
Some fun unknown Aussie facts
Australian Shepherds are not actually from Australia! They were developed in the United States, primarily as herding dogs for livestock. These intelligent and energetic dogs are known for their striking blue or merle-colored eyes, which can be quite mesmerizing. Interestingly, they are also known for their "herding instinct," which means they may try to herd, other pets, or even their humans. Lastly, Australian Shepherds thrive on mental and physical stimulation, making them perfect companions for active families.
Another interesting fact about Aussies is that some (not all) but some are born with naturally bobbed tails. In the U.S, Aussies that are born with tails are usually docked for the safety of a working dog and to meet the breeds standards.
