My story

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

Hi, my name is Joe, Joe Boxer. My foster parents say that I am the greatest foster dog ever! But what I really want is to be someone's forever boy. I am working really hard to make sure that I am perfect for my forever home. I know every command; sit, stay, shake, beg, roll over, you name it, I can do it! I also do a great job going potty outside and have not had a single accident in all the time that I have lived with my foster family. I love to go for walks and do really well on a leash, even when there are other dogs around. During the day I have free roam of the house and at night I sleep in my foster parents room, either on their bed or on my own special doggy bed. I am really good with other dogs and would love a home with other dogs that I can hang out with. My favorite person in the whole world is my foster dad and I would really love to find a guy like him to be my forever dad. When he comes home from work I get so excited I sing! We have our own special way of saying hi and I can not wait to share it with my new family.

Joe is estimated to be 1-2 years old and 57 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.

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, August 19, from 12-2pm. Please bring a copy of your pre-adoption application.
