Pet Harbor’s 10th annual calendars are now available! Continue Reading…

Thank you for the adoption of Clare! We were happy to sponsor her adoption donation in memory of our Siberian Husky Kaya.

Kaya first came into our lives in the beginning of 2013 as a very young (newborn) puppy. From the get- go she was mischievous, stubborn, and in complete control of us! Always a social butterfly, she thought everyone wanted to be her best friend, and never failed to forget what a beauty (read: diva) she was. She never passed up the opportunity to stop in front of a mirror and stare at herself. To say she was the life of the party doesn’t begin to do her personality justice!

As she got older, we cherished her desire to snuggle every night, and her willingness to find new adventures everywhere we went. She was a traveler with us, living in Texas, California, Hawaii, and Virginia. If given the choice, you would find her outside sunbathing or basking in the fresh air on a long walk.

Over the years her nicknames changed constantly, and the last few years we had with her she was more likely to respond to “Fluff” or “Fluffy-Butt” than she was her own name. To us, she will always be our ‘Sunshine” because of her constant smiles and love for life.

We hope Clare’s adopters will cherish the new memories they will make with Clare and find as much joy with her as we did with our sweet Kaya.

As fun-loving as Siberian huskies are, they often don’t take kindly to crating. They have been known to escape crates, destroying the crates and harming themselves and their homes in the process, which is one reason many become homeless.

For determined pack animals, wire crates and often airline-approved hard plastic crates prove useless. Yes, the Siberians laugh at the humans who think they will work.

Their goal is to find their pack members who have left the dwelling.

In order to have success in our foster homes, Pet Harbor needs top-end crates. Impact crates are top-of-the-line for Siberians. We also have worked with K9 Kennel Boss, which has been a fabulous experience. They are an extraordinarily rescue-friendly company. The appropriate size crate for the majority of our dogs is available only from Impact at the moment.

In addition, Pet Harbor holds events about once a month. The events are held in different locations. At present, our event wire crates, table, chairs, and other event supplies are stored in a storage unit. To make it easier to transport crates and supplies to events in different locations and avoid the storage unit cost, Pet Harbor is seeking a 5×8 single-axle trailer with at least a rear swinging door. This is an example of the type of trailer we need:

We really are hoping a Santa out there has these items they don’t want and will donate them to help homeless Siberian huskies. Since we realize that might not happen, we are seeking donations to buy a trailer and the crates. Thank you ever so much! If you have the items and would like to donate them or give us a significant discount on a trailer, please email info@petharbor.org.

It’s that time of year again! Show off your adopted Pet Harbor Rescue superstars! Continue Reading…

No adoption events are currently scheduled at this time. However, approved applicants can contact us at info@petharbor.org to schedule a one-on-one meet & greet with one dog.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
