It's is the much needed task of finding new and loving homes for eskies that for a myriad of reasons have found themselves without a home. Dogs picked up as strays and impounded in shelters. I have been heavily involved in Eskimo rescue for three years. It can be a taxing ordeal, especially on one's emotions.
Summer time is the worst, when placement needs are at an all time high.
You have to be prepared to go to a shelter on a moment's notice in order to avoid having a beautiful healthy animal being destroyed. Sometimes you're too late. Despite the many pitfalls and frustrations that doing rescue work can entail, the situations that have happy endings make everything worthwhile. Seeing a starved and neglected Eskimo blossom into the wonderful creatures that they should be is thanks in itself. They are all capable of love and enriching someone's life.
