Husky Rescue (WA)
Adoption
Prior to taking on a rescue Husky on a permanent basis, the following requirements should be satisfied:
A basic knowledge of the breed – This is to ensure that you are fully aware of what owning a Husky entails and you know what to expect when you take on one of these lovely dogs. The following Web Site is humorous but informative: The Homeless Husky.
Prior to Adoption of any Rescue Dog we perform an inspection of the property where the dog is to be kept - this is to ensure that the yard is big enough and the fences are suitable for the Husky, as a guide the fences need to be about 6 Foot with no step ups near by, IE raised garden beds.
Having chosen a dog from those in Rescue, we ask for a down payment of $175 - initially we recommend you take the dog on a foster basis for two weeks – this is a trial period to ensure that you are happy with the dog and he settles well with you
Should any problems arise in this period and you decide that this is not the dog for you, we will accept the dog back into rescue and you may choose to try another dog or we will refund the $175 in full.
The reason behind this trial period is to ensure that you will be happy with your Husky and not be stuck with a dog that is not what you hoped for.
If you decide to keep the dog, then a further $175 is required and you sign adoption papers for the dog and he becomes yours.
All dogs that come into rescue are sterilised, microchipped, vaccinated and vet checked before we rehome them.
The $350 paid for the dog is used to pay our vet bills, advertising costs, etc.
WE ARE STRICTLY A NON-PROFIT RESCUE SERVICE
REMEMBER – PLEASE REMEBER HUSKIES ARE WORKING DOGS AND CAN BECOME VERY DESTRUCTIVE GIVEN INSUFFICIENT EXERCISE
