Emergency Rescue: Dogs Freezing in –40° Need Saving Now
The story
OUR MISSION: SAVING DOGS IN –40° UP NORTH
This week, I drove six hours up north and spent seven hours outside in –40°, rescuing dogs who would not have survived another night. I went up planning to take four. I came home with sixteen.
The truth is heartbreaking: We didn’t even scrape the surface
There are still over 100 dogs waiting in deadly temperatures — freezing, starving, and hanging onto life by a thread. These dogs are everywhere. They lift their frozen paws off the ground to try to find relief from the cold. They hide in sheds, under broken vehicles, in the bush… anywhere they can escape the wind. No animal deserves to live like this, and they cannot survive the winter without help.
This is frontline rescue work. And right now, frontline rescuers are drowning.
Dogs are coming in with injuries, infections, frostbite, mange, and severe medical needs. Every intake means thousands of dollars in vet care — costs rescues simply cannot keep up with.
Your support will go directly toward: Emergency vet care. Vaccines, deworming, mange treatment, antibiotics, spays/neuters, and urgent medical needs for the dogs we pull.Transport + rescue missions up north, Fuel, supplies, crates, safety gear — everything required to physically go back and bring more dogs home before the temperatures drop even lower. Paying down rescue vet bills
Right now, we are not even scratching the surface of the need. But together, with your help, we can change the outcome for these animals!
