Pet Harbor Rescue & Referral A nonprofit Siberian husky rescue organization based in Virginia and run by volunteers and donations. We operate by donation and volunteers.

Pet Harbor is a non-stock, nonprofit Virginia animal rescue organization. We have no paid employees. The animals in our care are fostered in our volunteers' homes as we do not have a shelter.

Best news in the world to share. Tonight, Jasper went to his forever (adoptive) home. He shares his home with Nikki (formerly Pet Harbor's Ayala). This is also the home of Lucky, Kobi, & Duke (formerly Pet Harbor's Luke Nee, Rowen, & Ken), RIP. Yippee!!! Go, Jasper!!!♥️

Last week, we posted an AI-generated video of Jasper the Splash King. He's still looking for his forever family. So this week, AI generated another video of him, this time as a Bluegrass Sock Thief. (For those who aren't familiar with AI, AI sometimes hallucinates. You'll see a dog in here that does not look like a Siberian, but it's only one clip & funny. So we rolled our eyes & left it.)

Today AI got involved in trying to find our Jasper a family. (Please note this is AI-generated. Jasper does not have Corgi legs, and we did not let Jasper run around without a leash! It's all in fun!)

Never forget. Never ever forget. Heroes, 2,996 of them, were ripped away from each and every one of us on this day 24 years ago. Never forget them. Pet Harbor names every pet in our program after one of those we lost that day. Look at the name list. Take one of the 2,996 names. Learn about them. Honor their memories. Never ever forget. Here's a story about other heroes we got from that day, the canine heroes.

About 300 dog-handler search teams responded to 9/11, but only about 100 were prepared for the size of the disaster at Ground Zero.

💔 730 days. Two full years. November 1st, that’s how long I will have been waiting for a home and family.

I wasn’t even a year old the first time I lost my family. And here I am, still homeless. Still waiting.

I don’t know what I did wrong. I’m funny. I’m loving. I’m a total goofball. I can walk six miles and still have energy to spare. I’m strong, but gentle with people because, oh, how I adore people. They’re my favorite.

I love toys. I love adventures. And water. Not to splash in. To lie in. Streams, pools, bathtubs, if it’s water, I’m soaking in it. That’s my happy place.

My only “flaw”? I don’t like cats. But is that really a flaw? Besides, the rest of me is pure gold.

On November 1, it will be two full years that I’ve been with Pet Harbor. No dog has ever waited this long. The sadness of it is heavy, not just on me, but on the volunteers who love me and can’t bear to see me overlooked again and again.

Please don’t let me be the dog who waited forever. Share my story. Help me find the family who will finally let me lie in their backyard kiddie pool, run by their side, and cover them in kisses.

Love,
Jasper ❤️🐾

In honor of National Work Like a Dog Day, meet Pet Harbor’s Jasper in his AI form, showing just how hard he might work… if he worked. Well, he does work. Siberians need a job. Jasper’s is unpaid, but it’s important. He is working hard to find a family of his own. He’s been homeless for quite a while. Still happy, still hopeful, but he can’t understand why he has no home, no family, no one to call his.

On Hooray for Kids Day, our AI-generated version of Pet Harbor's Nolan shows how Siberians and kids are usually a natural pairing, like that of peanut butter and jelly. Most Siberians are great with children if the kids are taught how to treat animals, and most children adore Siberians. A win-win. So hooray for kids!
