If you are contacting WRBI regarding training or care for your KBD or pet, or if you have general questions about KBDs and our work, please note that we make every effort to respond.  Please be patient.  However, please keep in mind that WRBI has a very small staff and our ability to respond to the countless inquiries that we receive is limited.  Our website has a wealth of information that may be helpful to you.  While we wish to help as many dog owners and animal lovers as possible, our priority focus remains on working with the Wind River Karelian Bear Dogs here at the institute, as well as assisting the KBD owners that we have placed our dogs with.

If you are seeking specific dog-training assistance or guidance, we suggest a $30 minimum donation to help us offset the cost and time it takes for our staff to discuss your situation and provide a helpful response.

If you wish to speak to someone regarding KBD rescue or adoption, please direct your inquiries to:
