Happy Homes
We love
to hear from the owners who have adopted dogs from
the Sanctuary and delight to see how they continue
to improve in new environments from being a
working dog again, to exploring life as a couch
pet. Some even find themselves traveling to the
lower 48 states to find their forever home. Our
fosters find love everywhere!
Over the years we have adopted out so many dogs
that we cant possibly list them all here but we
wanted to introduce just a few of these happy
smiling faces and hear direct from their owners
how great a companion a sled dog can be...
Laya
"We took her on a 16 mile hike with some friends
and she didn't have to be on a leash at all. She
stayed on the trail and led the way. I think
that we don't always realize how lucky we got
with her. She's such a wonderful dog!

Jasmine, Velvet and the latest arrival,
Lilly!
"
Jasmine is
SUCH a love!! She gets along beautifully with
all of my dogs, especially Dave. She has run
lead in my team and has been a hit at school
demos.
Velvet is also
doing great! She runs great in the team and is
wonderful with the kids at school demos too. She
is such a happy and enthusiastic girl and she
ALSO likes Dave! She is the 'announcer', letting
everyone know when I am heading toward the
kennel. She likes to 'supervise' meal
preparation and is very interested in everything
I do.
I am so happy to have been
lucky enough to adopt these
wonderful
girls. I love them
more each day. Thank you all
for doing what you do... you
are SO
appreciated!"

Luigi and Thunder
"The dogs are
awesome! We discovered something about Luigi, he
loves kids! Our grandson stayed the night and
Luigi started barking (he never barks) when he
saw Jonah. Well, Luigi licked him to pieces!
Thanks again for all your work!"

Abbie
"This summer
Abbie has really gotten a lot more comfortable
here. She's turning out to be such a cute and
cuddly dog! She wags her tail
all the time now and loves to be chased around
the yard. I've been taking her on 5 mile bike
rides lately to get her thinking about winter.
There is something about this little girl that
is just so fun."

Hannah
"
Hannah is
having her puppy-hood.
She bounces up and down the stairs
smiling and looks around for
shoes and
slippers, and snatches them up
and runs downstairs and puts
them in her crate (she
doesn't chew them
at all). She is having so
much fun.
She gets tucked in her crate every night, just
like our other dogs, and feels safe and secure."
