So you think you want to adopt a Siberian Husky? The first question to ask, before allowing yourself to be swept away by the Siberian’s breathtaking beauty and winning smile, is “Is a Siberian Husky really the dog for me?” These charming dogs present their share of challenges and, quite simply, ARE NOT for everybody!

Our Pet List features our foster dogs as well as many beautiful dogs in Indiana shelters who are facing euthanasia if not adopted or otherwise rescued. Many of these dogs dogs are almost out of time, and it is ALWAYS our policy to give those dogs in the most desperate situations the first and best chance at getting to safety. Urgent dogs are not in our care only due to lack of space. We take in as many as we can, but the need is far greater than our resources. Please CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY for a list of links to dogs who are running out of time and options in shelters. We will get back to you TODAY!


Please note that the direct adoption of Siberians in shelters will be in accordance with that shelter's policies, and that we rely on information supplied by the shelter with respect to temperament, health, etc. Because in most cases we have not had the opportunity to evaluate these dogs ourselves, we cannot guarantee the health and temperament of referral dogs, and will always refer you directly to the shelter for further information about the dogs in their care.

The adoption process for our foster dogs consists of a thorough screening including an APPLICATION, COMPLETE REFERENCE CHECKS, a VET REFERENCE and a HOME VISIT. Want to take the first step NOW? Just CLICK HERE and request an application, and we’ll get back to you within 24 hours.

All foster dogs placed for adoption are microchipped, spayed or neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, wormed, heartworm-tested, and on heartworm preventative. Because we keep our costs confined strictly to the dogs’ needs, we don’t have to “pad” adoption fees to cover overhead expenses such as advertising, display materials, or any other expenditures which do not directly go to caring for rescued dogs. Though there are occasional exceptions, our fee structure is as follows:
Purebred Puppies up to 18 Months of Age: $225
Purebred Adults: $200
Husky & Malamute Mixes: $175.00
Seniors or Special Needs Dogs: Please Inquire
