My story

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

Hola! I’m Gidget. I came all the way from Mexico to find a forever home in Minnesota. Once I get to know and trust someone, I have tons of love to give. In fact, one of my favorite ways to spend the day is on the couch, next to my human. I’ve grown to love the elementary-age kids in my foster home, but new kids make me nervous. I’d probably be happiest in a home without kids, or with older kids who have experience being around dogs.

I am housetrained and will sit nicely for treats. I sleep through the night at the end of my human foster sister’s bed. I love to play with the resident dogs in my foster family’s fenced-in yard. We’re good buddies. I follow them around the house and pick up a lot of cues about how to be a good dog. I am pretty particular about my doggie friends. I do not like it when they are super energetic and get in my face. A girl needs her space. Speaking of space, I’ve been told I don’t give cats enough space, so cats are a no-go for me.

I have so much love and affection to give. I just need someone willing to give me time to shine.

Gidget is estimated to be 1 year old and 20 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 are also having an adoption event at R&D Bio-techne, located at 2001 Kennedy St NE Minneapolis 55413 on Saturday, January 20, from 12-2pm. Please bring a copy of your pre-adoption application.
