The Staff at Fast Running Paws consists of primarily me, Alyssa, and my six children. Outside help is accepted when we have a larger number of dogs, or are called out of town. We welcome volunteers anytime!! The kids are a big part of training these dogs to be good pets. The dogs get used to being around all the energy and excitement of kids running around and being loud. Even Gracie Jayne, 1 year old, helps the dogs learn to be gentle around small humans. The four older children, alicia, Abby, Arianna and DJ, are being shown how to properly clicker train and be strong leaders around the dogs. Lilly, the middle child at 3 years, has a natural way with them and can get any dog, so far, to respect her and sit with only eye contact. The children are ALWAYS under supervision while working with the dogs. They enjoy learning and I enjoy teaching them, both kids and dogs!
I can post and help with owner surrenders from all over the country and in some cases even transport or arrange transport. Space is limited at my home, but I knw alot of folks and can really spread the word!! We specialize in hard to place and northern breeds.
I will gladly post, and advertise retired sled dogs that need new homes. I have succesfully trained alaskan huskys to be good house pets and live as a family member inside a house. It takes time and patience, but it can be done!! So, please send me a photo and a quick bio of your retired worker, and I will do whatever I can to find them thier forever home!

Additional adoption info
If you are interested in adopting an animal that you see, email us with the animals name and age and we will get back to you . with an application that will need to be completed before you can be considred. All animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccinations before they are sent to their new homes. We prefer to send Wolfdogs to homes with previous experience with the breed and will require proper containment for them as well. A home visit may be required. If you are looking to adopt a wolfdog to be "cool", you have come to the wrong place.
