This Friday, Nebraska American Eskimo Rescue will take in three Eskies whose life has been a familiar, but sad story. Born and bred over and over again in a puppy mill, these Eskies and dozens of other dogs were freed when the mill surrendered them to a rescue in another state. Then, when they should have been free, they found themselves in another cage.
The "rescue" that had freed them from slavery in the mill was vastly over-run. Cats and dogs, and dozens of other little critters were malnourished, unvaccinated, and uncared for. They were left to their own devices, and finally - the "rescue" abandoned them. The "leader" of this organization left the state, literally skipping town, leaving local animal control to cope with nearly 100 dogs and cats.
Overwhelmed and underfunded, animal control did their best to give each dog and cat a fair shake at life. Each was taken in and given shelter from the bitter winter. Pregnant mothers, like one of the Eskies, were allowed to give birth and nurse their pups. However, funding is finite - and these Eskies are out of time.
Monday, February 22nd the three surviving Eskies were scheduled for death... but we just couldn't let that happen. Nebraska American Eskimo Rescue stepped in and made a commitment to bring these three dogs home.
Friday, February 25th, these dogs will come to Nebraska. We will take them to the veterinarian immediately - they will need pest control, heartworm tests and preventative, vaccines, spay surgeries, and dental exams. We don't know what physical condition they're in - we know they're scared, and they don't trust humans yet.
I want to change that. Even in naming these ladies, I want to give them dignity; for the first time in their lives, I want to give them dignity. We'll name them Athena, Aphrodite, and Artemis - the names of ancient goddesses who received love and praise. That's what we're going to give these dogs - love and praise, a new life, a real life for the first time.
Nebraska American Eskimo Rescue currently has no operating capital - we broke even, but now we need your help to bring these dogs home. Please consider donating any amount - even $10 will help us pay for the veterinary care they deserve.
So many times, our supporters have helped us when we needed it the most. So many times, you've come through for dogs who were out of time - Terrence, the old Basset whose beloved owner lost his battle with cancer, the 46 dogs from the June mill rescue, Elka and her puppies, and little Frosty who needed safe passage to his sanctuary - you saved them all. Please, help us save these three dogs.

From the bottom of my heart, and the base of their tails, thank you for everything, on behalf of the dogs!
