SHCGB (Siberian Husky Club of Great Britain) Welfare covers many problems, from the owner who can't, for various reasons, look after their husky any more, to the bewildered owner who just needs a little friendly advice on some of the breeds quirks.

We offer advice to rescue kennels across the UK and will always try to help find their charges a new home by helping out with the assessments on the dogs and carrying out the home visits if required.

The team is led by the Welfare Secretary. We have a dedicated advice line which covers almost every question anyone might have on the breed. Please note we are ALL VOLUNTEERS so please be patient if things take longer than expected.

PLEASE KEEP PUBLICISING THE STOLEN TIBETAN SPANIELS AND LET EVERYONE KNOW THE POLICE ARE TAKING THIS VERY SERIOUSLY. The 9 year old bitch must have been so frightened that she bolted and thankfully turned up on the door step. Sadly the thieves still have the young Champion male, a 2 year old bitch, a 3 year old bitch and two 8 month old puppy bitches. Heather and Liz have been overwhelmed by the reaction of the dog people but we still need to keep publicising as much as possible. Contact numbers again are: 01235-850289 or 07768 491762 - email eas.clydum@hotmail.co.uk – DAY OR NIGHT!
