We have been Rescuing and Raising Hybrids for 14 years now and currently
have 41 animals. Several of these are getting pretty old and will just
spend their remaining years here with us and that is allright. Over the
past 14 years we have Rescued over 400 animals and placed most of them
into good homes. We do have a few that were so badly abused that they
will just spend their days with us as they have emotional and Trust
issues. Some were skin n bones when they arrived like Cochise. He was on
a chain from 8 wks old till we got him at almost 11 mo old. He's not
people friendly not aggressive but he don't trust people especially
strangers but a love to us as we saved him so we kept him. He was an
Owner Surrender because he wouldn't Bond with the family. He was on a 6
ft chain to a tree. It only took me 10 minutes to get him on a leash and
eating out of my hand he was 10 mo old. When I promised him he wouldn't
be on a chain or alone again and a few pieces of Dog Biscuits he came
right up to me. The woman gave his history and breeding to me and we
left. We (last October) lost Niki our first Rescue who was a devoted and
loving friend for 14 years she was not quite 1 yr when we saved her she
was running loose killing Chicken and who knows what else to stay alive
the neighborhood was gunning for her. Then we found her owner and
discovered why she ran away over and over. They were Druggies and would
blow pot in her face then tie her on a deck and leave her there alone
for days. They told me of her Gray wolf content thinking I wouldn't want
her as they wanted to put her down. I chose to keep her and after the
first year was hooked on the Hybrids. Then we rescued a 4½ mo old Gray
Wolf Saarloos wolf hound Tika off of a Bridge that had been Beaten and
Ran over and left for dead. The vet knew his breeder and disclosed his
Wolf breeding to us. He was crippled in the hind quarters from the
attack but survived and hated men in stocking caps or drinking. Then the
word got out we were suckers for the Wolfdogs and 1 after another would
be dropped off at out house till we had to move to the country. We ran
adds in several newspapers. When we got the aggressive ones from abuse
we just kept them unless they were beyond help and our vet would put
those down. Our Vet cuts us every break that they can On their bills and
medications and discount Surgeries. Our Vet's office is 140 miles round
trip. We have sold many pups to Police Officers as well. Now the Dog
food we use Atta Boy has gone up in 2 months $5.00 a bag. Medications
have gone up as well. We are out in the country away from allot of
people because 41 animals howling can be very loud as you may guess. We
have spent nearly $8,000.00 on vet bills already this year and that
number will go up I have no doubt. New animals are Vet checked and any
health issues are dealt before they are put up for adoption. All that
has prompted this Plea fro help. We have used the monies from the puppy
sales to support our ongoing efforts to help these wonderful creatures.
We have no pups and no breed able females in heat at this time. We spend
over $1,100.00 a month on food alone Adult food and diet food for some
of the older Spayed and Neutered Seniors. We feed 70 lbs a day + special
food for the Young and Elderly. It costs us proximately $40.00 a day +
Vet Bills if any. We live on a small Retirement income of our own and
can't continue saving and caring for these wonderful animals with out
help. PLEASE WE NEED HELP to continue. We are asking for any donations
you can afford to give to help with the food and vet bills. If not we
will have to put the elderly and non place able ones down and that would
break our hearts. I don't want to stop helping them but without help
soon we will have to. Anything you can give will help and God Bless you
for anything you can do to help. You can't have one of your own ADOPT or
SPONSOR One. There are some that need homes for you or You can send $
every month to help with the care food and Vet bills for 1 or more
animals if you would rather. You can use your credit card or Pay Pal or
contact us for other options.
Grandmother Wolf
There has been references to 'US' as a breeder that has been selling
puppies to people for over 20 years ago, yet we have only been known as
'Highdesertwolves.com' or anything like that since April 2, 2006.
We have only been breeding since 1994, and at that time we only had 3 Wolfdogs.
We also were living in Washington state at the time of our first few litters.
We moved to California in 1999, so again, the references to "Grandmotherwolf'
selling any animal 20 years ago, is pure BS.
And IF you read our 'Puppy Contract' you will see that If at any the owner can
not keep the WD, they are supposed to contact us and we will either take the
WD back, or attempt to find the WD a new home.
We do all 'IN HOUSE' taking back, or finding them a new home. We have never
NOT handled any of our WDs as part of our family.
We also do not breed 'Rescues' unless we know the back ground of any animals.
As you can see we're extremely passionate
wolfdog breeders! Not only do we breed the animals we try to
wolfdog rescue whenever we can. We offer
wolf hybrids for sale and hope you find
wolfdog puppies and
wolf cubs as irresistible as we do.
