Polaris (or the North Star) Siberan Husky Rescue (PSHR) was founded in 1987 by Ingrid Simpson, when a very large husky named Kodi came to her house. Through the years PSHR has grown, helping more and more dogs find forever-families. Beginning in summer 2004, PSHR partnered with the national Alaskan Malamute Assistance League (AMAL) to provide adoption and rescue for Alaskan malamutes as well. Thus the Polaris Alaskan Malamute Rescue (PAMR) was born. PAMR provides education on, take in and adoption of malamutes. Our dogs come from a variety of locations around Colorado and bordering states, including shelters, strays, and private surrenders. Our motto is "We place dogs with families, not families with dogs." We place dogs of all ages, but there is a prevalence of one to three year malamutes that come into rescue. PAMR has a number of foster homes for care and placements, but we are always looking for volunteers to help.
After you have read up on Alaskan Malamutes to make sure that this is the right breed for you, then filling out our adoption application form below is the first step toward welcoming a new Malamute into your home! Please complete the form in its entirety, then click the submit button, and one of our volunteers will be in contact with you as soon as possible. Upon initial contact, we will evaluate your situation and decide what kinds of personality traits you are looking for in your Alaskan Malamute (e.g., good with kids, older male, already crate trained, etc.). We may schedule a home visit at this time also. After we have spoken extensively about your desire for a Malamute and have determined if there is a Polaris dog (or several) that would be a good match, we will arrange to have you meet with the dog(s). If you have other dogs and/or children, we ask that they be present at the interview as well to make sure that everyone in the household gets along well with the new pack-member. We will have you complete an adoption contract, and you will need to pay a modest minimum adoption donation of $275 ($300 for pups younger than 1 year and $100 for Seniors over 8 yrs.) at the time you take your new Malamute home. And then you are off to enjoy years of happy Malamute ownership with your Polaris Rescue dog!!!
