The Siberian Husky Emergency Lifeline Fund

A short blog about two passionate people who are doing something to make the world a better place.

Yep, I'm sure that sounds pretty dull, not to mention sappy.

However, I personally know these two ladies and feel somehow compelled to help besides re-sharing their pleas for help on Facebook.  Because, that's actually a very narrow sliver of the population, being as those are the people I actually know. In person.  And because that very narrow sliver of the population earns an even narrower sliver of the money in this country...so those people (and I know some of them have helped this organization out in the past) are likely tapped.

They rescue Huskies from abusive backgrounds, over-breeding, you name it, then try to save these dogs from it, including taking a small group of volunteers into Cleveland (and other environs) to catch elusive strays.  This requires resources as they are a no-kill rescue.  This also requires volunteers to foster, and care for their on-site rescue dogs that are being evaluated and trained for possible forever homes. 

Not that I have a giant bunch of followers. And not that I know I have regular readers, however, I am going to share a link on my page to try to help out these amazing ladies.  Yes, they ARE legit.  One was a former co-worker and is a friend.  The other lady I barely know, but from what I DO know about her, she is wonderful and she is the founder.

About the S.H.E.L.L. Fund

There are several ways to help.

Here are a few that can be helpful from a distance (as in you are not near the Cleveland, OH area) as I am not and really wish I could volunteer some of my own valued time to help out...but I am approximately 4 hours away).

Amazon Smile  order things you would normally order from Amazon and raise money for the rescue.

Sponsorship Program   help the rescue buy food, medication, flea treatments, heart worm pills, and fund vet visits.

Fun Time Dog Toys  buy things you need for the dog you live with and help out the rescue!

Wine buy tasty wine and support the huskies!

Donate anything from money, food, toys, bedding, it ALL helps.

The Process  Now, if you ARE interested in adopting, these ladies WILL put you through an extensive process to protect the dogs, you, your family, and any other pets you currently have in your household. It is beneficial to find out if there are any personality conflicts early on as Huskies are demanding.

The Adoptables!  The stars of all of this. The lucky dogs, looking to get even luckier.

If you can help, please do as the Rescue has just moved to a larger site.  This is a crucial time in their survival and I, for one, would like to think that the do-gooders of the world can survive.
