My story

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

Hi my name is Minestrone and I am as sweet as I am beautiful. When I say beautiful, I am mostly talking about my heart. I was rescued in Alabama and moved up here in September with my handsome boyfriend and 10 little surprises in my belly. On Oct 5 I brought 10 beautiful puppies into this world and have continued to be an incredible mom every day. I did my job so well that my foster parents say it’s time for me to get my own family that will love ME!

I’ve had an incredibly rough start to my life, but you wouldn’t believe how forgiving, kind and gentle I am. I’m completely potty trained, don’t bark and walk leisurely on a leash. When I am not doing mom duties I am usually found taking a long nap, following my people around & eagerly awaiting food! I have been too busy to work on kennel training and I am looking for someone that has the patience to help me learn to be home alone. I miss my humans when they are gone.

Are you looking for a mild mannered, potty trained, loving lab mix? I’ll melt your heart.

***FOSTER TO ADOPT***
Minestrone is heartworm positive and not yet spayed. She is currently going through heartworm treatment. Once her treatment is complete, it is the responsibility of the adoptive family to get a microfilaria test 30 days after treatment for a preliminary result. Then, a heartworm test 9 months after treatment for final results. It is recommended that she continues getting tested for heartworm annually. During these months, you will need to make sure her heart rate is not elevated due to high energy play or exercise until she receives a negative microfilaria test. Minestrone will also need continued use of monthly heartworm preventives going forward. This will all be covered by Warrior Dog until her last injection. Any other medical needs will be the responsibility of the adopter. Once she receives a negative result on her heartworm test she will need to be spayed. The adoption can be finalized once treatment in complete and she is spayed.
If you are interested in adopting Minestrone, please fill out an adoption application.

--------------------------------------------
All our Warrior Dogs will have all age appropriate medical care and vaccines, a microchip, and spayed/neutered if the dog is over 6 months of age at the time of adoption.

Please note that the majority of our dogs in rescue are from shelters where they have been found as strays or abandoned. Their breed description is based on our very best educated guess based on physical characteristics and their dispositions. If they came to our rescue as an owner surrender, the breed description will be listed as provided by the previous owner.

More about this rescue

The mission of Warrior Dog Rescue is to save the dogs that are homeless, left abandoned in shelters, are surrendered by their owners, those that are being abused and neglected, and those that are left wandering. We are committed to providing them the medical care they need, helping them to overcome their past by providing them loving, educated foster homes, finding them their perfect forever home by means of a thorough adoption process, and guiding them on their journey into their new life. They all deserve a “good dog life… every single one of them.”

Warrior Dog Rescue will be a model rescue by partnering with overcrowded shelters that need to make room for more abandoned dogs. We will continue to educate others about responsible dog ownership in regards to safety, spay/neuter, nutrition, obedience, socializing, abuse, and neglect. We acknowledge that we will have a role in this industry to take the lead on providing awareness to others in the community and across the country. Every dog will know what it feels like to be loved till the end of their life.
