In Montana, 161 malamutes were rescued from a puppy farm and are now being looked after by Lewis and Clark Humane Society. Presumably in the future many of them will be up for adoption, but in the meantime apparently it's costing $2,400 per day for the humane society to look after them all.

You can read about Project Malamute here, and if you want to read the story of their rescue it's here. I think this story shows the importance of checking the background carefully before getting a dog.

The Alaskan Malamute assistance league is working hard with Lewis and Clerk to have these dogs go through mal rescues. I know because my rescue up here are suppose to get some, I am on the list as a possible adopter this summer. Not sure if it is going to happen but we shall see.

I hope they all find homes. A nice male would be good, but till I get settled with new job (interview friday and job offer to follow) I need to just keep with the girls i have. I did look into the links and was saying to go through state agency which here is a Husky group I didn't have good luck with when I first heard about Cali and tried to help. Do you have to go through your state, or can go through another one like say Illinois for me or something? Just curious incase someone else had same issue and hasn't asked.
