23, maybe 24.

That’s how many huskies H3 pulled from high kill SoCal shelters on this latest Rescue Ride. Let’s call it Rescue Recharge.

But first a little pupdate on Tikkun. Riverside vet staff found a microchip and has placed him on a 10-day hold. I will let Bethany address this more later. For now, the moment he’s released, we will be there to pick him up.

In the meantime, if you donated for his rescue specifically, then know that we will apply it towards the other 22 huskies that we rescued yesterday, 7, of which came from the same shelter and were at much higher risk of euth.

Here are the lucky huskies.

And before I go any further, we would prefer not to be criticized for not rescuing the 1000 other huskies that we left behind and instead let's celebrate the 23 we did save.

Thank you so so much for all of your support, well wishes, encouragement and tears as you followed along for their rescue and continue to follow their journey as we take them halfway home.

Next up is phase 2 of the rescue, the rehab. This is the time that they will spend at H3 being evaluated for all the things that make them huskies and for those quirks that might have caused them to wind up in a high kill shelter.

Over the past few days H3 has been fundraising to cover this massive undertaking. We estimate based on history that each rescued husky will average a cost of $2500 to go through all three stages, the rescue, the rehab and the rehome.

That’s 57,500.

We have only raised a quarter of that. A quarter. We so appreciate that quarter and must continue to beg for the rest.

If you pledged for any of the dogs above (except the last 5. They are still processing) and haven’t had a chance to honor it, please do. We want to keep saving lives, but we have to able to care for them properly and we need more homes.

Adopt and/or donate, so we can rescue again.

Thank you so so much for your support.
