Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Violet is a sweet bundle of energy. She loves the outdoors and appreciates long walks and romps in the snow. She would love a home with a fenced in yard and an active family to help her burn off that endless puppy energy. Violet enjoys playing with her lab mix foster sister and is great with the kids in her foster home ages 7 and 4.
Violet is doing great at potty training and can sleep through the night without any accidents. She needs to be taken out every two hours as she is still learning but will use a puppy pad if needed. Violet sleeps on a dog bed in her foster parent’s room at night. She has only been left alone for 2-3 hours during the day and is gated in the kitchen with the resident dog and her bed. Violet wants to be near her foster mom or resident dog at all times and follows them all over the house. She is content to sit on her dog bed at the foot of the couch when resting as long as someone is in the room. She will do best in a home with another active dog to keep her company.
Violet is estimated to be about 4 months old and weighs about 15 pounds. Since we don't know at all what doggy genes are in the dogs make up (we don't know who mom and dad are!), we are just guessing on breed and size when grown.
All dogs are spayed or neutered and microchipped prior to adoption. They have all had a vet exam, are up to date on vaccinations, have been given a dewormer, are treated for fleas, have a heartworm test if over 6 months old and are up to date on a heartworm preventative.
Please note that because we require a home visit at the time of adoption we can only place animals in homes within a 60 mile radius of Minneapolis.If you are interested in meeting this dog please fill out the pre-adoption application on our website at www.safehandsrescue.org under Adopt and we will get back to you to arrange a meeting in the foster home.
We also have an Adoptable Dog Meet & Greet on Saturday January 24, 2015, at Fetch Delivers Warehouse, 783 Harding St. NE. Suite 150, Minneapolis, MN 55413, from noon - 2 pm. Occasionally dogs cannot make it to the Meet & Greet, therefore feel free to verify if your dog of interest is able to attend. Please bring a copy of your pre-adoption application.
