Story
Adoption fee will be $2,500 (not firm) Max is a loving male mini bernedoodle. I bought him at stoneridge doodles. He was about 65 lbs a month ago. He loves to go for walks and carry his own leash. He loves to take his blanket with him. He likes all people (kids and adults). He would do really well with a family with other dogs. He loves to play with his friends. He was neutered June 13 2024. Born June 12 2023. He is microchipped and UTD with his shots. When he was with his litter (before I got him) he had gotten some scar tissue on his back. If you shave him really really short, you will see it on his hind end close to his tail and some on his left side also. It doesn't seem to bother him. He will come with his bed, stuffed animals, his blanket, treats, and about a week worth of food (in case you would want to change what he eats or need time to get more of the food). I would also have other dog items that I would be willing to sell.

Story
She is a 4yr old sweet lovable dog and she's a big baby. Loves to sleep with you under the covers. Tries to be a lap dog, but maybe a bit too big, she is 44 pounds. She's such a cuddle bug and a sweetheart she just needs a lot more attention than we are able to give her. There was a death in our family a few months ago and ever sense she's wanting more attention and love. We lost our stay-at-home dad for her. She needs a home with people that can spend time with her. She is house broke and listens well. She loves car rides anywhere, short or long. Up to date on her shots, chipped and have copies of vet records. It breaks our hearts to have to rehome her as we have had her sense, she was 6 weeks old, but she deserves a home where she can get more time and attention she wants and needs. We have a 2 1/2 yr old child, cats, an older lazy dog and she does very well with them. Please reach out if you want more details or pictures. Thank you for looking at this sweet loving girl.

Story
IN CELBRATION OF THANKSGIVING, “TUCKER” IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! Tucker’s adoption had been placed on hold 4 months ago when we were outside watching Tucker and the other Poodles run, jump and play. Suddenly we heard Tucker give out a loud “YIP!!” and clearly saw him limping. The other Poodles wouldn’t tell us what happened. But some squirrels were chattering about how Tucker was chasing them, and he took a quick turn to the right. Not sure if the squirrels were telling us the truth, so we quickly got Tucker into our Vet where X-rays were taken. We then learned that he had torn (ruptured) his right rear leg “Cruciate Ligament”. Humans have a similar experience, but it’s called a torn “ACL”. Maybe the squirrels were correct? Well, a Specialist was called in and a surgery was done to fix his torn ACL and meniscus. This surgery is very expensive (thousands), but Tucker was in pain, and he needed our help. And for those of you who asked or questioned our decision: We will not euthanize any healthy Poodle when a highly successful surgery is available! After the surgery, Tucker had his own living space in our entry way to limit his access to steps and activity. He had to remain confined and quiet. Sadly, he really missed going for walks, playing outside and going to the grandchildren’s baseball games. BUT NOW…. Tucker’s last x-ray appointment to check his leg was Wednesday, November 27th. It showed he had completely recovered from his surgery with no problems. He now enjoys going for a daily 2-mile walk with Mike and the other Standard Poodles. He also just loves greeting people who greet him and come to visit him. He is completely housetrained and has full access to our entire home even at night and when we are gone. TUCKER’S INFORMATION: He is a creamy white AKC Standard Poodle who was born June 23, 2015. He weighs a healthy 71 pounds and measures 25 inches from the floor to his withers. Eight months ago, this pretty boy came to us from a Minnesota breeder who was retiring. Special thank you to this breeder as she was willing to wait until the recent tax season ended (April) so we could start accepting some of her adult Poodles. She also wanted the best homes for her Poodles as they enter their “retirement” years. Tucker was scared out of his mind the first few days with us. But he quickly learned all about being a family dog. He follows us around our home while being a part of our family, knows how to come when called, will sit upon command and is always ready for hugs and attention. We also took him to various public events, including several softball games that our grandchildren were playing in. While there, he had a good time enjoying the noise, commotion, and people all around him. He also received and enjoyed a lot of love, attention and hugs from many of the children at the games. Tucker is a quiet, soft, gentle, easy going big boy, a real cream puff. Going for his morning walk with Mike when he listens to the birds sing, watching the squirrels running around and meeting people is on the TOP of his list of fun things he loves to do. I would also like to stress that he is a very smart boy and has quickly figured out what to do and when. Example, rattle the Cheerios bag and he knows it’s time for breakfast as Mike sneaks Tucker a few Cheerios from the bag. Did I tell you that he is such a very smart and a very good boy?! While Tucker has been around other dogs all his life, he completely ignores small dogs. But is just fine with other easy-going large dogs, like our Standard Poodle Lola and Vinny. Yet, Tucker would be the perfect boy all by himself as he considers himself a member of a family and NOT a dog. *A SECURLY FENCED YARD will be recommended as he has been a kennel dog and not trained to relieve himself on a leash. *You must be physically able to handle a large Standard Poodle. *Preference will be given to a quiet family with past Standard Poodle experience. *Large, easy going dogs are fine. BUT PLEASE: *NO puppies or cats. *NO aggressive or assertive dogs (they scare him and me). *NO young children. *Like most all rescue groups, we do NOT adopt our Poodles to homes more than 1 day’s drive (round trip) from our location here in central Minnesota. Yes. This is a very rare opportunity for the right family as we all know that a good Standard Poodle is hard to find. With the introduction of Doodles, sadly the Standard Poodles are becoming harder to find. Why Doodle when you can Poodle? He has been neutered, and at his dental appointment, he had many of his rotting teeth removed. Our Vet also removed a few small non-cancerous cysts from Tuckers back and side. Ouch. It was a difficult and long surgery, but he did just fine and now he is feeling a LOT better. He is eating a hard kibble, so there is no need for soften or canned dog food. Yes, all his Vet work was very expensive. But Tucker is such an amazing loving, smart and good boy that we want the best for him. Everyone loves him, including the staff at our Vet’s office as they all wanted to take him home! He has been Vet checked healthy, is up to date on vaccinations, worming, heartworm/lymes/Ehrlich/ Anaplasmosis (4DX) tested negative, placed on a heartworm preventative, and Home Again microchipped. As with all the other Standard Poodles we have adopted, Tucker’s adoption fee is 1 million, trillion, zillion dollars. However, for the right family his adoption fee is $450.00 which includes $31.00 for our 7.375% Minnesota state sales tax and helps pay for just some of his extensive vet work. Also included is his leash, collar, a bag of quality dog food, a 10-gallon dog food container, treats, a cute toy box, along with a new blanket, a dog bed and lots of good information to help your Poodle adoption move forward on the right paw! Again, Tucker is a very nice Standard Poodle boy who wants and deserves a good and loving home for his “retirement”. Yes, we would keep him, but the greatest gift we give our Poodles is to let go when the right family comes to adopt them.

Story
Ginger is 22months old and a mix of 19 breeds - I will be happy to share her DNA. Ginger is very loving with her people. She is not as good with strangers coming into the house because she is a nervous girl. I’m sure this can change if someone can work with her. She is good when I take her to get her nails done. Ginger loves to sit in the front seat when we go for a drive. She is a happy goofy girl that thinks she is a lap dog. Ginger is kennel trained, housebroken, knows sit, down and stay. She lives with a cat and another female dog. I think if she was slowly introduced to a child living in the home she would be good with them. She really needs a fenced yard or a safe place to burn off her energy. We will provide collar, leash, leader, bowls and new chew bone.

Story
Cleo is AKC certified! She is full of energy and looking for someone (or a family) to spend her time with. She turned one on July 26th and was spayed back in August. She needs a home with a big backyard that she can run freely in. She truly is such a gentle giant (86 lbs), but does love to jump on adults because she gets so excited and wants attention. Our neighbor has a basset hound named Bambi and Cleo loves running back and forth with Bambi against the fence that separates our yards. She loves kids and other dogs. She has never been around a cat. She absolutely loves all people and craves a lot of attention. She is definitely a favorite at the vet and she has to go say hi to all of the vet techs when she has an appointment. She also loves going to doggy daycare and excels in environments with multiple dogs. She is such a good girl, but my body can't handle the hives I get when I miss a dose of allergy meds that I have to take multiple times a day.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Please help us by fostering  TODAY!!!!! ________________________________________________________ We try to evaluate  most of our adoptable dogs temperament  with a senior UDR rescuer before it goes into a foster home. This helps ensure we place it in the right foster home. We may have some dogs in rescue who are not on our website that we are getting to know and who may need a foster home. Our goal is to place dogs in the right foster and adoptive homes! Of course it is up to the fosters to further evaluate the dogs while they are living in the home.  New arrivals coming soon! We partner with Doberman Rescue of Northern Texas, High Desert Doberman Rescue and many other rescues across the US and world. We have new Dobermans coming in often and have the ability to take in a homeless Dobermans the same day we are contacted should we get a surrender request. We can always use fosters to be on the ready to foster one of these new arrivals!         Please apply on our website to foster, or give a shout out if you can help any of these dogs!! As always fosters get the first chance to adopt! You provide a safe, loving home with daily structure until your foster dog gets adopted. Time frame is anywhere from a couple weeks to a few months. If you have a dog, your dog may like a friend. We try match up the dog with the foster home best suited for each dog in need. UDR supplies all the dog food, some supplies and always pays for vet care. Going on vacation and worried you will have to find a place for your foster dog?? NO worries!!!Know we DO have numerous options for vacation boarding and doing temporary fostering of your foster dog while you take that much needed vacation. We are also in need of short term fosters, those foster homes who would take in a foster dog on a short term basis, a weekend, a week or two, even to help in emergency or medical situations. Please fill out our foster application today and help a dog in need!!!  Fosters get first chance to adopt their foster dogs, so this might be a great way to "test" out your new friend. Fostering has its perks!! Many fosters do join the foster failure club, meaning they end up adopting their foster dog! Why should I foster a dog? Fostering a dog is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have (other than adopting, of course). By taking an animal in need temporarily into your home you’re: freeing up a spot so a shelter can take in another dog. giving your foster dog the time he needs to be ready for adoption. helping us learn more about the dog so he can end up in the best home possible. socializing the dog to a home environment and possibly getting him used to being around other pets and different types of people. Thank you for helping us help them! Fostering saves lives. Be a hero, foster a dog in need!
