We received Apollo from a shelter in VA. He and his brother Cash were taken to the shelter when the owner's son found out about the dogs. A breeder had sold the 86yr old woman both puppies and she was unable to care for them. This also resulted in the son packing his mother up and taking her to his home in GA to live.
Thankfully, all is well. Apollo needed a bit of work, but thrived after his brother was adopted. His brother Cash, a good boy, was dominate, and intimidated Apollo which made him fearful.

Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.
If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers. There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs.
Eskie Rescuers United American Eskimo Dog Rescue, Inc. is an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Please click the donation button below to make a tax-deductible donation through PayPal and help make a difference to even one American Eskimo dog!
