Adopt a Siberian Husky in Illinois

Siberian Huskies are endurance athletes — friendly, vocal, and stunningly beautiful, but built to run for miles. They're one of the most-surrendered breeds because their needs catch new owners off guard. A rescued Husky in an active, secure home is a remarkable companion.

Illinois has a large rescue dog community, with Chicago and the surrounding suburbs home to dozens of active rescues and shelters. Downstate organizations in Springfield, Peoria, and Champaign also serve large populations. A rescued Illinois dog typically comes from an active, well-connected organization.
