Update 12/5:  The orthopedic surgeon is very pleased with Duke's progress so we are making him available for adoption.  Duke has been attending doggie day care 3X per week and we go on a slow run together each morning. Duke is a lovely, fun, sweet eskie boy.  If you are interested in learning more about him please email me at hortmeye@gmail.com

Update 11/17:  Duke spent the week with the orthopedic surgeon for rehab and is now at home doing very well.  He is starting to use his left leg.  Doc is hopeful that Duke will be in great shape in six months or so.  He is also hopeful that the pin that was (mis)placed in right leg that is impinging on sciatic nerve will migrate away on its own.



Update 11/7:  Duke is home now after having a successful FHO surgery.  He is in a lot of pain/discomfort and does not want to put weight on his leg yet.  My marching orders are to get him walking on his leg so we will be working on that.  Duke will be going in for a follow-up appointment on Monday.

Hi everyone!  I am sweet, gentle, and extremely happy and grateful Duke.  I feel like I am in heaven now.  You see, I was run over by my owner and he didn't take me for medical care until two months after the incident.  And then, to add insult to injury, he took me to a shelter to be put down.  The wonderful shelter people contacted ERU and thanks to many supporters, donors, and volunteers I was flown to Maryland from Kentucky and will be getting the medical attention I need.  The docs in KY thought my back legs needed to be amputated but the orthopedic surgeon in Maryland is hopeful that I will not lose my back legs.  I will be having FHO surgery on November 5th.  Please check back to follow my update.

A heartfelt thanks from me and my foster mommy Heidi to Misty, Laura, Pilots n Paws (John, Tom, Ron), Karon, Waugh Chapel Animal Hospital, Yard Sales for Needy Tales, and the amazing ERU volunteers, sponsors, and donors!

Good with Dogs, Good with Cats, Good with Kids

Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.

If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers.

There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs.


Eskie Rescuers United American Eskimo Dog Rescue, Inc. is an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Please click the donation button below to make a tax-deductible donation through PayPal and help make a difference to even one American Eskimo dog!
