York's Story

York was born at the kennel on 7/2015. He is a loving dog who would love a home to spend his senior years in. York would love someone who could spend some time going on walks with him. He would also love a couch to relax on. York can be a little shy at first but warms up really fast. <br/>amazing sled dog in his younger years.<br/>Things to consider before<br/>You Adopt A Retiring Sled Dog:<br/><br/>- Our adoptable sleds dog are used to living in an outdoor, working environment. This means that they will need to be house trained and exposed to "house stimulus" like stairs, cars, vacuums, wood floors etc. Adopting an adult sled dog is similar to welcoming a puppy.?<br/><br/>-Our adoptable sled dogs range from medium to high energy. In general they require multiple walks daily and engaging toys when inside the home. A bored/under exercised ?sled dog is a destructive and anxious sled dog! ?<br/><br/>- Our adoptable sled dogs are trained to run and are therefore a high flight risk. We do require that they be on leash or within a fenced in yard at all times until proper recall training has been received.<br/><br/>- Our adoptable sled dogs have befriended many kitties in their new homes, that being said adopters are instructed to monitor all interactions with small animals as our four-leggers have limited exposure to them while with us and there is no telling how they may react

NH Sled Dog Rescue, History & Education Center's Adoption Policy
Our Adoption Process: Step 1 - Complete and submit an adoption application. A completed application helps our staff get to know you better and introduce you to dogs that would do well in your home (or ensure that the dog you are interested in would be a good fit). Once we receive this information, we can then schedule an appointment for you to come meet our adoptable sled dogs. Step 2 - If you decide to move forward with adopting one of our sled dogs we begin processing your application (ie: checking references that you provide, reaching out to your vet etc). We also request a few nonintrusive home photos to get an idea of where the dog will play, sleep, eat etc. Step 3 - If your application is approved we then schedule a health certificate appointment (and spay/neuter surgery is necessary). Step 4 - You get to welcome your new four-legged friend! Please note that in general, our adoption process takes 2-4 weeks depending on how quickly we receive feedback from your references and how soon we can get the lucky four-legger in for any necessary vet appointments. We DO NOT do same day adoptions and all potential adopters are required to to do a meet and greet prior to adoption day. Our adoption fee (as of January 2022) is $250 and includes: a health certificate, microchip, updated Bordetella, DHLPP, and rabies vaccines. Dogs will also be spayed/neutered if not already altered.
