The Philadelpha Main Line is hardly the place that one would think of as natural setting for a Siberian Husky pack, but that is where Snocrest Siberians makes its home. Tucked away on a quiet lane, on 2.5 wooded acres, there is plenty of privacy and room for all! If it weren't for the occasional howling session, no one would even know they were there.
We started in Siberians in 1989 when we adopted our first Siberian, Natasha, from a local no-kill shelter. From there it was easy to just keep going, and there followed two other rescue Siberians. We were, and continue to be, very dedicated to Siberian Rescue. We helped to found Delaware Valley Siberian Husky Rescue in the early 1990s and have continued to stay involved with this special group.

One of our rescue boys, Chinook, developed into an excellent obedience dog, earning his Companion Dog title in 3 shows in 1997. Chinook helped to uncover a tremendous passion for training dogs. In 2001, we decided to look for a promising puppy to continue with our training obsession. Into our lives came, Kotch. Kotch turned out to be so much more than just an obedience dog and it is because of him that our new passion was ignited?..the sport of showing pure bred dogs. We continue to be dedicated to this sport, as well as to showing in obedience, and helping other pet owners to train their family pets..
We are members of the Siberian Husky Club of America, Siberian Husky Club of Delaware Valley, Siberian Husky Health Foundation, Penn Treaty Kennel Club and Eastern Pennsylvania Stewards Association.
But all through the years and the many wonderful wins and all of the "glory," our love and passion continues to be our lives with and relationships with our dogs. We honor and thank them for all they have taught and shared with us, all the joy and blessings they have bestowed.
"We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.""
