Friends,
The Iqaluit Humane Society is in desperate need of our assistance. Faced with a lack of funding, their solitary and much needed facility is in danger of being shut down by the Spring of 2021.  Please listen to my unsolicited appeal for further information.  If you are able, please donate to keep this pet life-line alive.  Or if you are looking to adopt/purchase a dog, please consider a Northern Dog and contact The Iqaluit Humane Society.  I'm sure your Northern Dog will be as special as mine.
