My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Derby is a handsome and lovable little pup. He enjoys climbing into a lap for cuddles, playing with toys, and romping with other dogs. He loves to be silly when he knows he's being watched. So cute! Overall he's very adaptable and will play when the time is right and is content to snuggle or chew on a bone when things are more mellow. He is working on house training and doing well with going on papers when he's confined and no one is home. He is almost 4.5 months old and about 14 lbs.

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 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 http://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 August 20, 2016, 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.
