Story

We adopted Finn from a local rescue almost 7 years ago. He was abandoned at birth and was only 6 weeks old when we took him home. Finn is an extremely smart dog who LOVES to cuddle and loves any kind of affection. He is part border collie and takes his job of protecting the house seriously. He is an excellent guard dog, but barks at visitors until he gets comfortable with them. We have learned that he does not do well with toddlers, which is the reason we are seeking a new home. Finn is an anxious dog and takes a while to warm up to strangers. Before we had our child, we had the time to give his anxiety/behavioral issues our attention. Now, it is creating an unsafe situation with our toddler. We are looking for an adopter who is patient and has experience with anxious dogs. Finn does well with other dogs, but has not spent time around cats.

Story

Name: Delilah Breeds: Border Collie Mix Age: Young Adult Gender: Female Meet Delilah. Delilah is a special girl who has had a rough start to life. When she arrived in rescue she was a tiny, sickly little pup who fought hard to survive. Thankfully, she fought hard, and she quickly became a happy, healthy, normal pup. As she aged, it was apparent something else was going on with her. Delilah has what is called Congenital Kidney Displaysia. This means one of her kidneys is about 1/2 the size of the other, along with some other abnormalities. As a result, Delilah has increased thirst and urination. Unfortunately, there is no way to truly know what the future holds for her. We cannot predict her lifespan or how long her kidneys will continue to function at the rate they do now. Managing the symptoms by not restricting water, and frequent trips outside are what she needs. Currently by doing these things she lives a normal life. Because of all this, Delilah needs a home where her people are home often. As long as she gets out every couple of hours during waking hours, she does relatively well. Despite all of this, Delilah is a normal, happy, energetic puppy who loves to play. She is fostered with other dogs, kids, and cats (though she will chase them if they run). Delilah is an incredibly sweet girl who loves attention, loves to cuddle, and loves to wrestle. Her ideal home is one that can provide her with a lot of attention, a lot of exercise, and has someone home with her more often than not, so that she can get out potty often. She currently is able to make it through the night in her kennel. Unfortunately, she would not do well in an apartment as she will bark if she hears people talking, but cannot see them. Requirements: Home willing to accomodate her medical special needs You can email linzyg1988@gmail.com questions and for a preadopt application. This dog has been spayed/neutered, vaccinated as age appropriate, tested for heartworm disease if age appropriate, and dewormed. This dog is located in Minneapolis, MN

She is house trained and crate trained. In fact her crate is like her security blanket. Elsa will need an adjustment period to get used to new people and a new environment, but once she's comfortable she is a sweetheart and navigates very well. She’s looking for a quieter home. A busy environment with young kids or active dogs would not be a match for her. She is completely fine with cats and other calm dogs. Elsa loves to be outside and enjoys going for walks too. She wants to feel safe and secure in a place where she can call her forever home. Ravia is one of 46 dogs rescued from horrific hoarding condions.

Story

Tesla is 6 years old. We adopted Tesla when he was roughly 7 months old. He came up from somewhere in Alabama and had a rough life before he came to live with us. When we got him he was very shy and anxious around new people, places, and sounds. Over time he warmed up to people and became a very sweet and loving dog. That being said, his other anxieties have only increased and despite all my efforts he has a lot to work on. We are re-homing Tesla because his behavioral issues have become more than we are capable of managing or helping him with. It has been a painful and sad process to come to this decision but we believe he will be happier with someone who can spend the intensive one on one training time with him that will be necessary to help him overcome his extreme anxiety. When Tesla is not triggered or anxious about something all he wants to do is lay next to you with his head in your lap and receive pets. He is sweet and SO loving. Happy to provide detailed info upon request.
