Event Description

NW Snowdog Rescue is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming northern breed dogs, primarily huskies and husky mixes.  Founded in 2014, NW Snowdog Rescue was created at a time when virtually all husky rescues had either shut down or scaled back.  With the rise in popularity of the Siberian Husky in pop culture, many people wanted this beautiful breed for its wolf-like appearance, but those same people were not prepared for the dedication and care needed to live happily with their dogs.  As a result, our community also saw a rise in the number of huskies needing to be rehomed.  While the journey to find every husky a home is not a sprint, every step toward helping a dog find their forever home should be celebrated.  Join us on this 5K (3.1 miles) journey and feel free to bring your furry friends!
