Looking for a rescue in Alaska

Looking to rescue a corgi locally or at least in the state of alaska, I work as a vet tech in anchorage so i'm even willing to take on some special care cases. We have a 2 yr old corgi Jaffa, a cat, and 2 rabbits at our household so far, and kids sometime in the next 2-3 years hopefully.

Jaffa gets along with all sorts of dogs but he definitely acts his age and loves to play all the time, go on hikes, fishing, skiing etc with me. Other than trying to find a good match for our household i don't really have any preferences. We'd like to try and adopt locally first as we don't have money yet to pay for shipping (after the holday season we should). If anyone can point me in the right direction or wants a really good home for their corgi please contact me ^_^

i live here in alaska, but i dont know of any rescues up here :( (believe me i have looked)

the best thing i can tell you is that i know of a breeder who rescues on occasion. i don't think she has any litters coming anytime soon, but she is a very ethical breeder. but i am sure she can point you in the right direction.

you can find her contact info on this webpage http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/pembroke_welsh_corgi/breeders/3609....

Yes i already contacted her, I'm still on her rescue list from over 2 years ago when i was trying to find my first corgi. We ended up after 6 months of searching getting a pup who is the best corgi on earth, love my jaffa! Thank you for the help :D

I'm assuming you're looking for a younger dog but this gal is on petfinder:

Even if you aren't looking for a puppy they may be able to help you in your search.

I called about that little cutie on petfinder, after talking to her foster mom we decided she was too arthritic to deal with my 2 year old corgi. Good news though, her foster mom says she's gonna adopt her!

And i will check with that breeder, i havent talked with her yet, thank you!

Dangit, I missed Tank up in fairbanks, he must have been posted yesterday (its the only day i didnt check petfinder). Thank you all for the heads up! I also made another breeder up here who may be able to help me do a rescue from Oregon since she travels there a lot.
