My story

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

Location: Blaine, MN

Leah is the definition of Ride or Die, she is extremely loyal, and ready to be your life co-pilot.

Leah is always up for a good play session of catch with her tennis balls, stuffed toys or a tug of war match. She LOVES toys!!! Your living room will become a stuffie graveyard on a daily basis. She does love her toys so much, she wants them all to herself. She is willing to share, but her inner spoiled child feels like they're all hers. Leah loves to be on the go.

Leah is currently in a foster home with a dog, cat, children (9-14), female and male, and she's doing great! She did start off chasing the cat, so the cat has decided she does not trust Leah. Since then Leah hasn't paid much attention to the cat, but does still chase from time to time. The situation is manageable. Leah does have a strong prey drive (bunnies, squirrels, etc), so this is something to keep an eye on. If your cat is dog savy, and willing to stand their ground against Leah, the cat situation might be manageable, with the proper supervision and a strong leader.

Leah and our resident dog get along great, they wrestle for hours throughout the day. Leah has met many dogs and has done well but she needs slow intros to make sure she feels comfortable. She does resource guard (only) high value treats from other animals (not humans). This has been very easy to manage (with supervision and verbal reminders). She does fine with hand fed treats and food. Her and the resident dog have so much fun playing and wrestling together, so she would love to live with a dog sister or brother. She does well with the kids in the house and loves when they play fetch with her. And she's not scared of men.

Leah is so smart. She's very trainable and loves to please her people. She hasn't had any accidents and she's crate trained. She LOVES long walks and car rides. She's ready to be your co-pilot.

The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org).

Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs), FIV/FeLV test (cats), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration).

Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are best guess.
