Rue is an 8-month-old Boxer/Hound mix who wakes up every day ready for adventure and joy. She’s about 35–40 lbs of pure charm, wrapped in a gorgeous brindle coat that earns her compliments everywhere she goes. She also has a white mark on her neck that looks like a little heart!
Rue mastered potty training quickly and politely sits by the door when she needs to go out. She’s also crate trained, snoozing quietly through the night until she pops up in the morning with a wagging tail, a toy delivery, and a full-body hug.
Smart and eager to please, Rue knows sit, stay, and come. She waits patiently for her meals and understands her release cue like a pro. Rue is food motivated which makes training a breeze.
This girl LOVES her toys - especially balls. She entertains herself by inventing little obstacle courses out of pillows and furniture. While the vacuum isn’t her favorite, hand her a snuffle mat and she’ll forget it exists. She rides beautifully in the car and is always happy to tag along for an outing.
Rue is wonderful with kids and gets along well with other dogs. She hasn’t met cats yet, but her gentle curiosity suggests she would be just fine. She recently discovered her voice, though she uses it sparingly and quiets down quickly.
Most of all, Rue is a total companion dog - your little shadow, following you from room to room just to stay close. When she settles in for couch snuggles, her tiny snores are the cutest thing in the world. She’s down for anything and ready to be someone’s best friend!

We only adopt out animals to homes within 60 miles of the Twin Cities. Our adoption process begins with the return of our pre-adoption form, available on our website. After reviewing your application a meeting is scheduled between you and the pup, sometimes in the fosters home or at a neutral dog friendly place. If any resident dogs are in your home, it is recommended that the pups meet at this time. After the meeting a home visit is scheduled and if everything goes well with the visit the adoption is finalized at that time. A home visit by one of Safe Hands representatives is REQUIRED prior to finalizing any adoption and we must meet all members of the household where the pup will be living sometime during the adoption process.

More about this rescue
Safe Hands is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization dedicated to saving lives and finding forever homes for stray, abandoned and surrendered dogs in high kill shelters. Of great importance to us is to reduce the stray population and need for healthy animal euthanasia through spay/neuter programs, education, and promotion of respect for the furry creatures that share our lives.
We are a small, no-kill, volunteer run organization. All of our dogs listed are in foster homes waiting to be adopted and because of this, we get to know the dogs' personalities very well and use this information to match them to an appropriate home. We do not have a physical shelter.
This rescue is not funded by public funds nor does it receive many donations so it is dependent on adoption fees to keep operating. We have a great need for foster homes. If you are interested in providing foster care, and live within an hour of the Twin Cities, please e-mail us
Donations ALWAYS needed are: dog crates, puppy pee pads, natures miracle (for pet stain removal), Nutrisource brand puppy and dog food, Lysol disinfecting wipes, paper towels, large clean towels, dog toys, leashes, collars and gas cards to help with our transports.
