John Nelsen Moosedog Rescue Fund

About

JNMRF is an all volunteer organization dedicated to the rescue and rehoming of Norwegian elkhounds and elkhound mixes. Incorporated in 2003, we are a 501c3 organization and work with volunteers around the country to find caring, loving homes for these dogs. We do not have a kennel or shelter to house dogs so we depend on volunteer foster families for holding dogs until they are adopted. The fund provides money to pay for shelter fees, spaying and neutering, heartworm checks, vaccinations, immediate as well as long term medical treatment, temporary housing, and transportation in its effort to rehome these dogs. We maintain a rescue website to provide internet exposure for dogs in need. We also work with other rescue groups throughout the USA and Canada in helping to accomplish these goals. Once you have decided this is the breed for you, consider adopting your next companion.

Adoption process

Step 1. Complete an adoption application: Forms can be submitted online or downloaded, completed and mailed to JNMRF, P.O. Box 65, Mendenhall, PA 19357. Step 2. Email or discuss with our coordinator about dogs listed on our rescue site. The coordinator may know of others not yet listed that would also work well in your home situation. Step 3. Receive a home visit from one of our volunteers or a volunteer from an associated organization. The whole family should be present during at least part of the home visit. Step 4. Sign an adoption contract prior to or at the time you receive a dog. All dogs placed must have signed contracts received by the JNMRF Treasurer or a designated JNMRF Volunteer.
