New Leash on Life! Rescue is a all volunteer “no kill”, soon to be 501(c)(3), non-profit private rescue organization based in Somerset, Texas. We specialize in finding homes for both purebred and mixed breed dogs. All of our “little furry friends” are treated as family until we locate the perfect adoptive home.
We are an Arctic breed rescue that specializes in Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, Alaskan Klee Kai’s, American Eskimos, and Samoyeds. We take in homeless, abused, abandoned and shelter dogs, rehabilitate them and find them new forever homes. Our rescue is run out of the private residences of the founders and fosters. We believe heavily in spay/neuter programs and in educating the public about the Arctic breeds in the hopes that less of them will end up abandoned in kill shelters.
We are a local Southern California Chapter of Heart Bandits, a nationwide U.S.A. American Eskimo Dog rescue (including Canada). Although the Eskie is our specialty, this Chapter also handles other small-to-medium breeds including mixes. Our weight limit and foster network determines the variety of breeds we are able to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome. You will often find us in a local shelter scouting or close to a phone ready to run to pick up a stray that is out of time and needs a place to go. This volunteerism also applies to owner surrenders, those who can no longer care for their pet, or a lost-and-found pup that may need to find a place to go. We gather the good samaritans who are rescue-friendly and willing to help a dog in need in a pinch. We pride ourselves on our determination and dedication to the rescue effort and hope that many lives will be saved through our continuing efforts.
It’s just the 2 of us, doing it for the love of this often misunderstood breed
We are a group of dedicated volunteers, working together for the benefit of helpless and homeless Eskies. Our program is funded by donations and adoption fees. Our volunteers spend endless hours of rescue work which involves transporting, fostering, and networking to save American Eskimo lives.
