Meet Ades. We were told she was a Samoyed (by a Samoyed owner, no less!), and she looked like one from her pictures, so we agreed to take her. Now that we have her, we are pretty sure this girl is a Sammy-Siberian husky mix. Whatever her parentage, she’s a sweet, playful girl who is looking for her forever home. She’s about 4 years old. House and crate trained. Knows basic obedience. Loves every person she’s met and every dog too! She’s great with the other Samoyeds at her foster home, but can be “a bit much” for a couple smaller dogs who have come to visit — it’s not aggressive behavior, more that she doesn’t know her own size/strength or realize she needs to self-regulate with smaller dogs; she’s fine meeting them when out on a walk, but is not recommended to share living space full time with a small dog (or cats for the same reason). She LOVES to go for walks and if given leeway to do so, will try to get the person walking her to go the longer route every time. 🤣. She would love to join an active family/person who would take her for long walks/hikes, or let her try her paw at bikejoring, lure coursing, cani-cross, etc, but her number 1 request is to be an adored companion to an individual or family who is looking for their new best friend. Is that with you?

We have an “honorary Samoyed” we are helping who needs a home. Crosby is a 9 year old doodle/poodle mix (best guess) whose former owner is an elderly man who is no longer able to take care of him. He’s about 25-30 lbs, neutered, heartworm negative and up to date on shots. He’s good with other dogs, unknown with cats (but we can cat test if needed). He’s good with adults and older kids he’s met in the neighborhood; we haven’t seen him with toddlers or preschool-ages kids, but has been fine with 8 and up. He loves to go for walks, but mostly just wants someone he can hang out with — he’s a “Goose” looking for a “Maverick”.

Well, except for the “sit quietly” part. Samoyeds think you should bark or aroo 🤣

A snow day PSA from your Samoyed:

That cute puppy under the tree this December is frequently the untrained wild child we get next August when “the kids are going back to school and we just don’t have time”……please think twice and don’t do it!

While the idea of gifting a pet may seem heartwarming, there are essential reasons why it's generally not a good idea.

On this giving Tuesday, we hope you’ll remember MidAtlantic Samoyed Rescue. Between being the only Samoyed Rescue organization operating on the East coast & the post-pandemic “dump your dog season”, we’ve been extremely busy this year. Your support is greatly appreciated!
