My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Whiskey is a Indian Pariah dog aka IN(Indian Native) Dog/ Desi dog who was rescued from the streets of India and flown to the U.S. for a chance at adoption. Please scroll at the bottom to get details on this breed.

Whiskey is a male Desi pup who is around 4-5 months old. He is very confident, outgoing and loves to play with his two sisters Brandy and Vodka. He is leash and crate trained and doing well on his house breaking training. He is very fond of human company and will follow you around everywhere you go. He is dewormed, microchipped and fully vaccinated. He also has a International Health certificate, blood and stool test report.

Please email Rescuewithoutborders@gmail.com if you are interested in adopting this sweet pup.

Please read Whisky's rescue story below-
Brandy, Whiskey and Vodka are the lucky survivors from the streets of India. These three lucky Desi pups were rescued from a drain hole in India. Mommy dog gave birth to her pups in summer in the manhole to keep them safe from traffic and cool in the hot Indian summer. Sadly one day the Mommy dog got hit by a car and died. With no food, water or sun light only three pups from the litter survived. Without their Mom’s protection the pups were too scared to venture out to look for food so seeing their plight a kind lady started feeding them. But the manhole was so big that other big dogs would also get inside and steal their food and attack them. Gradually they became very malnourished and weak. One day it rained very heavily all day and that manhole quickly started filling with water. All three pups were beginning to drown as they could not come out. At the request of the lady a good Samaritan jumped inside the manhole to rescue them. They were in real bad shape so they were rushed to the Vet for emergency care. Luckily all three survived and the lady decided to foster them. Our rescue was contacted with a request to find these sweet pups loving homes in the US. We are looking for foster/forever homes for these pups when they arrive to the U.S.

Information on the Indian Pariah Dog breed:
Indian Pariah Dog, IN (Indian Native) or Desi (Local) or is a pure, ancient, indigenous dog of India that abounds the Indian streets. A long time ago, thousands of years before the arrival of modern pure breeds, a race of dogs much like this one inhabited the Indian subcontinent. These were the very first domesticated dogs and Man's earliest animal companions. It has evolved entirely through natural selection without human intervention of any kind resulting into a very hardy, extremely intelligent, alert and independent thinking dog.

This is a natural breed of dog that is pure in a true sense and how nature intended a dog to be; hence they are way superior to the artificially developed man made breeds that we call pure breeds today. Its origin dates back 12,000 to 15,000 years – older than any other breed. This is a natural primitive breed which is a direct descendant of the early domesticated dogs. These dogs are found to be genetically healthy with no known genetic diseases and a very strong immune system. They are perfectly adapted for survival; a free-roaming life on the street for these dogs is always difficult and often hostile and hence requires high order of intelligence, quick and independent thinking to survive. On the streets it is the survival of the fittest, usually out of a litter some will get run over by cars while others will succumb to hunger and malnutrition. Only the most hardiest and intelligent ones will survive to produce off springs. When this survivor is adopted as a Pet, their owners are often awe struck with their beauty, grace, intelligence, loyalty and hardiness.

They are highly adaptable, quick learners and versatile and are known to be even smarter and definitely calmer than the intelligent Border Collies. They are very agile and excel at many dog sports such as agility and also make great jogging/running companions and can be even faster than Grey Hounds. While active outdoors, they are usually very calm and quiet indoors. They have tremendous stamina and hence need an active family who will take them for a daily brisk walks or a run.
Indian Pariah Dogs are sensitive by nature and do not respond well to harsh training methods and hence need an even tempered, gentle but firm and loving owner who knows how to calmly and consistently communicate the rules of the house.
These dogs love children and are known to have a calm and gentle demeanor around them. They bond strongly with their people and make an excellent family pet that is very loving, loyal and intelligent. These dogs do not bark much but are always alert; they are friendly yet wary of strangers and make good watch dogs.

Indian Pariah Dogs are low maintenance dog as they are generally very healthy and like to stay clean; they hardly shed and have virtually no doggy odor. Their smooth, fine short hair coat is easy to groom. They have an all-weather coat that allows them to easily adapt to different weather conditions.
A well-looked after pet IN dog will rarely need to see a vet and may live a healthy life of up to the age of 14 – 18 years.

This is a medium size dog with an average height of 20-25 inches (51-64 cms) at the shoulder and generally weigh about 28-55 pounds (12 – 22 kgs).
They are found in all colors and variation with erect or floppy ears; however a typical IN Dog usually will have erect ears, a wedge-shaped head and a tail that curls over its back. Most IN Dogs are similar in appearance to other prehistoric dogs like the Australian Dingos.

In the last couple of years we have successfully rescued, rehabilitated and found homes over 200 Pariah dogs throughout the Northeast United States and more recently in the West coast.
