Please consider supporting this organization.
I have the pleasure of seeing this beautiful dog on a regular basis. She is so loving and would be an excellent addition to most any home.
But you say…. I can’t have a dog right now…. Consider giving to the organization in a monetary way or reach out to offer support as a volunteer.
“Salome’s story isn’t for the weak at heart.
Salome came from a puppy mill, where she spent her life as one of many breeder moms. Her story deserves to be heard and shared.
She was surrendered to Adopt A Husky MN after the facility—housing more than 500 dogs—requested rescue help. What many people don’t realize is that there are an estimated 10,000 puppy mills across the United States, and 25 of them are right here in Minnesota. In these places, once female dogs are considered “done” breeding, most are never given a second chance. More than 60% are killed without a thought, without a tear shed.
When the opportunity came to save three breeder moms from this facility, I didn’t hesitate. I saw photos of Salome—terrified, unsure, so small in spirit—but in her eyes, there was still pure love and gentle kindness. I knew immediately that I needed to help her.
Salome entered AAHMN’s care along with one other breeder mom. With the support of a generous rehabilitation partner, she is finally getting her second chance at life.
Before rescue, Salome had never walked on a leash. She had never slept in a soft, warm bed. She had never played with toys or felt unconditional love and safety.
But now she has all of that.
While living in my home with my husband, Salome has slowly opened her heart. Today she is loving, sweet, playful, and eager to be part of a family. She still has a journey ahead of her, but she wants to be loved. She wants to learn. She adores her orthopedic bed, enjoys exploring toys, and thrives in a welcoming home.
After finally being seen by a licensed veterinarian, we learned that Salome has a dislocated patella—likely something she endured for years in the puppy mill without treatment. She simply learned to live with the pain.
Thanks to generous donations from community members, local pet stores, and every kindhearted supporter, Salome will now receive the surgery she desperately needs so she can live a long, happy, pain-free life.
Stories like Salome’s are why I am so proud to be part of Adopt A Husky MN. We aren’t just a nonprofit—we are a family. We care deeply for every animal that enters our organization, and we wish we had more fosters across the Twin Cities so we could save even more dogs from places like the one Salome came from.” ~Foster Mom
