We have overfilled our capacity and need to find homes for these dogs. We've been trying desperately and are coming up short. Even if you know of another rescue who will take them that has more room that'd be great too! We are in CRAMP conditions right now and I hate seeing these guys penned up
If you have any questions or are interested in helping out at all, please PM me!

A littler Terrier/Mutt pup. He's a sweetie and thinks he's as big as everyone else here


Teddy Bear is about 5yrs old with a sweet temper. He'll let you do just bout anything to him and he's great with kids. Will bark to alert you of visitors or problems


Shadow is a shy boy but that doesn't exclude him from needing a loving home


Rain has a bum leg from previous owners. Something happened and she was brought to us with what looked like a VERY broken leg. But it was healed completely and she walks just fine.


PUPPIES



Mask smiles away at you constantly! I even caught a pic of that cute smile of hers


Jojo is a sweet girl as well. However, around other dogs she does tend to try playing "alpha" over them and shows her dominence to other females.


Jet is a HUGE boy. Reaching around probably 100lbs easy. He's pure black and 2yrs old. He's got tons of energy and needs an active family - maybe even a family with older kids (10+?)

 I'd like mine sent in a bubble mailer to my Shoe-Box sized PO BOX, please.
I feel like Sarah McLaughlin should be singing rite now.
Better get out the popcorn for in case Salamanda shows up.

[Lychee]

Aw, they're all so gorgeous, especially the little pups. As much as I'd love one, I don't think they'd get along with my hamsters or the transatlantic flight.

Done! Expect one in about 2 hours to your PO Box

What business would she have here honestly? Am I really committing a Sal crime for trying to rehome some dogs that really don't deserve to be in a small Kennel? o.o
xDDDD

Why would I have a problem with this...?
You guys are dumb.
but this isn't the way to find homes for dogs anyways, if she wasnt so stubborn she could have PMed me and I could give her the information to our local rescues who are even willing to transport, especially when its husky/mal mixes. Do people not remember thats what I do? Work with rescues? Arrange transport? If Yukixx still has me blocked, will someone give her the contacts I'm about to post in a sec? Ive got to get them all together, and make a few calls to see who has room and is willing to have their personal info put out.

Those conditions are disgusting and those dogs need to get out, for sure.

[Nearx]

Yes the conditions are deplorable. This is a rescue in need of help and I decided to try helping them find homes so they can work on getting better kennels and such set up and get things under control. They had a HUGE incident where they lost just bout ALL their supplies. They had enough to make 4 kennels and two out of garage doors but that's it. (And take into consideration that they had bout 40 - 50 dogs as well. Most were rehomed appropriately but these ones they're having a harder time with) And they aren't even huge kennels. I've seen their last location and they had TONS of big clean healthy kennels. This is why they are so desperate to get the dogs out and have been trying for about a week or so now since they've moved.

All other ways of finding homes for them have been used. Networking, CL, websites, calling rescues they know who are also jam packed and won't take them. I figured I can get the word out here was all. I didn't think of asking you cause i completely forgot you're where I am. If you can get me some lists, that'd be awesome, thank you.

OH MY GOSH PUPPIES! ;-; If I wasn't a serial adopter already I'd take one, but sadly we have no room here! Best of luck finding homes!!!

[Nearx]

lol thank you
Definately could use the luck for these guys! They're such sweethearts... I HATE seeing them live like this

Also, if anyone knows any organization that helps rescues with supplies and such please let me know. They can use some volunteer help as well with building kennels. They need fencing and fencing materials, food dishes, leashes, blankets, etc. Anything you can think of (Brand new dog houses too if that's not evident enough lol). I've been keeping my eye out on CL to see if there are things I can find that they could use but am turning up short on that

[Salamanda]

NCWR is receiving 26 abused sled dogs, some with health issues, but they will check their foster list and see just how full it is and put the word out.
If you want their phone number, I can give you the office one.
What rescues have you contacted?
DO NOT use CL, it is nothing but hoarders. I kid you not. There are nordic and wolfdog specific places we use to post dogs needing homes. Everyone who adopts goes through an adoption process including home checks and vet checks.
We have fosters waiting to receive dogs, granted only a few are in Ca but sometimes there is a transport on the ready if a home/foster is found in another state.
I'm hesitant to PM them to you, so for right this second I'll contact them myself if you give me all the information including how many dogs are at the current location, how many need to go, the owners name, location, phone number and honestly we need to know what her personality is like before contacting her.
What percent of these dogs are altered? Are UTD on shots? Been checked for heartworm? And have the majority been picked off the street or come from city shelters?


I thought I asked this already but apparently not, Is this place in Mojave by any chance?

You could try Animal Lifeline. :3

http://animallifelineonline.org/

There seem to be multiple branches. My college is affilated with the one I mentioned above, but a quick Google search for "Animal Lifeline" and your state might bring up one closer to you. If you can't find one, I'll gladly email them to ask if they donate to states without an Animal Lifeline chapter.

By the way, if I find anything you need, do you want me to mail them to you? I probably could find some dilapidated (meaning it has lots of bleach stains or is several years old) or too-small towels to give you.

Let me talk to the owner and get all the info in place then after school. Last I heard, they're UTD on shots. What do you mean altered? There are a little over 30 dogs total. Some are the owner's own dogs though and anyone else at the moment she wants to find homes for so they can get cleaned up easier. There are about 14 or so that need to go to homes for sure. There are also 7 pit pups that a couple asked them to take care of while weening. They're weened and need homes. The owners don't want them going to another rescue, just another home. They're 8 weeks old. If you know anyone around here who'd want one, please let me know too.
Any numbers you can give me to give the owner would help greatly. I can wait while you check as well. I can get personalities in a bit too either in an hour or so or on wednesday. Most of these guys are from shelters. The owner has a connection with a shelter (not sure which) where she can take anyone who's gonna be put down for free and give them a chance at life. She mainly only takes malamute and husky mixes though.
Any other information I'll ask her bout and get back to you on.

Thanks for the help
They don't care how things look (like towels and such) if they'll work like they're supposed to, they'll work for the rescue.
If you do find anything, yes, please PM me and we can work something out. Thanks so much!

Where in Cali are you, yukix

I live in NoCal but drive to SoCal 3 times a week. Around LA area's and OC is where I mainly am.

[Salamanda]

Is this rescue in Mojave? If so, then I already have all the contact information.
Please, let me know.

[travis]

Ohh boy. I'm gonna have to try and take one of these adorable pups off of your hands. How are they with other dogs? I'm in love with Mask :3

Edit: Ok, obviously they're good with other dogs - but what about stranger dogs.

Sorry skipped that question. x.x
Yes it is. You had actually emailed them at one point.
The owner claims they're all even a little wolf but most of them look like mala/huskys ONLY. She's posted ads on CL saying she has wolfdogs. I've tried thinking of several ways of telling her they are not at all though.
There's only one that has anything close to being wolfdog. Black gums, cowhocked, straight back, blended coat, tail hangs right, no back dew claws, "eyeliner" and black lining on lips, even stands with his feet pointed outward and walks single tracked (I think is a term for it? Not 100% sure but basically walks one foot in front of the other), almost no stop, long muzzle, very tall, long legs, appropriate height and weight, and all that good stuff. But the others don't even NEARLY compare especially the ones I posted.

Depends honestly. The males in that Kennel do well with each other but will not stand the other malamutes around. Mask is GREAT however. She's definately a lover. Very shy but will warm up to people easily. She smiles. A LOT. Like, when I had to try to catch her to put her in her Kennel when they first moved in, I followed her, walking slowly for about 10 minutes. All the while she'd look back at me while walking and lift her lips giving me this cheesy grin like "I'm sorry. I just don't wanna go in there...". Never growled or anything - a total smile. lol she's adorable

lol sorry, I'm in school and I keep getting people coming over here and talking to me. Its before class but none the less. Never fails that they come WHILE I'm replying -facepalm-

I'll talk to my parents about this...I've got 1 pitt and 2 chihuahuas, all female...I'll let you know.

Where are you located? If you are truly interested, we can meet you somewhere with mask and your pitt and chis and see how they all do. A neutral location though so there are no territorial things going on. Feel free to PM me

Spoiler

Is it this guy in the far back right?

I was given this ladies information by someone here in So Cal and told to try and get more info, because she was having problems with the original people handling this case and trying to help.
She has been posting on Craigslist for supplies, but thats all I had seen.

I asked about her dogs in general and she told me all she had were low contents. I'm trying to get more info still.

I'm in Ontario. I don't really care about the chis...they can suck it. I'd just be worried about the pitt and Mask getting into it...she's super friendly allll the time, plays with the chis and everything...but one time a stray Boxer came to my back gate and she was ready to fucking slaughter the thing. I'll let you know

No not at all. Shadow is like o.O Yeah no lol. The one I'm talking bout isn't pictured and I don't have a pic of him. I'm not sure if he's at all wolf or not but from checklists that I've seen he's got about 90% or so checked on a wolfdog checklist. That and even Fish & Game has inquired bout him when they dropped by.
She also says she has an F1. Mother was 100% wolf and father was 97%. How much I believe that though, I have no clue.
The "F1" in question however, is VERY tall and EXTREMELY lengthy though. She has an abnormally long tail as well... o.O
Not really bushy in anyway and actually, year round she has an EXTREMELY short coat. That of like... God I dont know, not even like a Shephard. Shorter than that. And she sheds like mad. Much unlike even a husky or malamute. She sheds more like a husky if anything. She has the colors of a wolf, the black gums... Black toenails and no dew claws, the length and height of a wolfdog but its VERY hard for me to believe that she is an F1.
Now here's what's stranger: Fish and Game asked DIRECTLY bout this dog and asked the owner if she was an F1....
Weird cause like I said, compared to pics of other wolfdogs (Even lowcontents) she looks nothing in comparison.

What all info do you need about her? I may be able to help o.o
I rent from her at the moment and help out with the dogs on a daily basis.

Yeah with our experience, pits havn't gotten along with the dogs at all but that doesn't mean that all of them don't get along with pits. Mask is VERY passive. Jojo (The girl who plays "alpha" over all the other girls) even pushes her around and Mask just takes it.

Actually Salamanda, the one in the far back right is Rain, pictured in the first post. I didn't catch exactly which one you were talking bout till now. Rain honestly has a funny shaped head though if you see her in person. I don't know if she is possibly mixed with wolf at all or not but my guess would be no.

All I can see is the outline of that dogs forehead which is why I'm asking, it slopes more than a husky/mal so I'm assuming he has shepherd then.
The chances of an F1 are extremely thin unless the mother is very old, captured or stolen. Fish & Game here in CA dont know anything, anyone could have hinted or mentioned an F1 and they automatically check it out even if they don't see it. But even F1's can throw low mids so going by generations doesnt have too much credibility nowadays.
As for all the markings, some AKC registered Mals can come across as mid content WDs to alot of people.

What we were concerned about was the cramped and poor conditons. There were several complaints from people who had visited the place.
Other than that, I cant say anything about it right now.

[Nearx]

Hey Sala, I believe a long while ago you said your family runs their rescue in Idaho? I can't remember the exact name but supposedly the place that had the pure wolf mother and 97% wolf father was in Idaho. Tipi something I think. Know any rescues or any place like that up there? If so, have you seen their "wolves" there?
