Story
Bear is a 1.5-year-old Aussie Doodle who loves to run, hike, and curl up for snuggles when the day is done. He’s bright, loyal, and eager to please — the perfect mix of poodle smarts and Aussie heart. Bear has been working with a professional trainer and already knows his basics, walks nicely on leash, and is learning to greet new people calmly. He’ll thrive with an active person or family who enjoys getting outside and keeping a steady routine. Bear bonds deeply, loves other dogs when introduced thoughtfully, and would do best where he can stretch his legs and be part of everyday life. Our family of five loves Bear deeply, but between busy kid schedules and limited yard space, we know he deserves a home that can give him more time and freedom to run. He’s ready for a family who can match his energy and continue helping him grow — and he’ll give back endless love in return.

Story
Gunner is an adorable sable male GSD. Gunner lost his mom suddenly and needed a place to go, so we took him in. Gunner had a knee surgery previously, so he does walk a little funny, but that does not stop him from playing with his jolly balls! Gunner should be the only dog in the home at this point in his life. He is crate trained, neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. Experience needed for Gunnar, he’s a great dog, but needs a strong handler. If you are interested in learning more about Gunner, you can apply on our website www.skylarsscholarships.org (the application is listed under the “more” tab).

If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please complete  an Adoption Request Form. This is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about our adoption process, please visit our Adoption Process page on our website at www.rescuecrew.org. Meet Suzy – The Ultimate Couch Queen Looking for Her Perfect Match ISO: A financially stable, emotionally secure, dog-loving man who appreciates a strong, independent, curvy woman with opinions — and isn’t afraid to validate them. Got a trust fund? Great job? Excellent. I’m the kind of girl who knows what she wants, when she wants it, and isn’t afraid to say so. I respect a good leader — just don’t be a pushover. Confidence is key! My ideal date night? Kicking back on the couch, binge-watching TV in the air conditioning. If you’re into hiking, running, or “going for walks to clear your head,” we’re probably not a match. I’m strictly an indoor gal. Anything above 70 degrees? Hard pass. Oh, and if your A/C isn’t running full-time from May through November, this won’t work out. Speaking of couches — big, comfy ones only. If I can’t stretch out, we have a problem. Have another dog? That’s cool, as long as they know I’m the boss. Cats? We’ll see. If they’re wild and doing laps around the house, I might join in or tell them to knock it off — depends on my mood. Other women in your life (mom, sister, daughter, girlfriend, wife)? Totally fine — as long as they aren’t jealous, because let’s be honest… they’re going to fall in love with me too. If you think you can handle this level of fabulous, slide into my DMs (aka fill out an adoption application). You’ll have to get past my foster mom first, but if you can impress her, trust me — I’m yours. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. All companion animals adopted by The Rescue Crew are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLK (cats) or heartworm (dogs), microchipped, dewormed and provided with monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives prior to adoption.   The Rescue Crew is a foster based rescue organization, meaning all of our adoptable pets are located in homes throughout Minnesota. We do not have a physical location where you can stop by to visit the animals - we require the completion of an Adoption Request Form prior to meeting any of our adoptable pets in foster care. For the most complete information regarding this animal, and all of our adoptable pets, please ensure you are visiting our website directly at www.RescueCrew.org.

Hi! I'm Buckles, a playful pup who loves exploring and learning new tricks. I'm super friendly and nothing makes me happier than playing games with kids. I absolutely love kids, but my foster mom said they should be older kids since I get excited and might tend to knock them over when I'm excited.  I'm always ready for a fun adventure or a cozy cuddle. I'm smart too, so teaching me new things will be a breeze! If you're looking for a loyal friend who will bring joy and laughter into your home, I'm the perfect match. Let's make wonderful memories together! Buckles is working on kennel training She is pretty much house trained She is good with other dogs She doesn’t mind cats  She is scared of my chickens and ducks She knows sit.  She walks great on a leash and recalls well off leash to her name.  We are working on lay down, off, stay, place and touch. She understand the concept but has a very short concentration period so we are only doing 5 minutes of training a few times a day and incorporating a lot of toy and tug action to keep her attention.  She loves fetch and will retrieve the ball and return it.  She’s interested in the water but hasn’t made the jump into the pond.  She is a great puppy with a huge personality that loves the world and exploring all it has to offer!  Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. All companion animals adopted by The Rescue Crew are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLK (cats) or heartworm (dogs), microchipped, dewormed and provided with monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives prior to adoption.   The Rescue Crew is a foster based rescue organization, meaning all of our adoptable pets are located in homes throughout Minnesota.

This is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about our adoption process, please visit our Adoption Process page on our website at www.rescuecrew.org. Meet Daphnee — 45lbs of pure, unfiltered, pitbull perfection. If you’ve been searching for a dog with main-character energy and a strong commitment to keeping life interesting, your girl has arrived. Daphnee is a certified hooligan with a heart of gold. She’s a tug-of-war champion and a squeaky toy connoisseur who will happily review (loudly) every toy you provide. Truly the life of the party, with ear positions so expressive they deserve their own TikTok account. Her zoomies rival a track star, and her sploots? Olympic-level. Please clap. Her hobbies are just as iconic: Attempting to drink all the bath water before she’s fully clean - it's important to stay hydrated. Critiquing your cooking with the intensity of a Food Network judge. Accidentally bonking her adorable block head into every corner of your home, because spatial awareness is for other dogs. Staying active, energetic, and ready for the next adventure. Daphnee is goofy, lovable, and bursting with personality. She’s looking for a home that can appreciate her silly spirit, embrace her chaos, and love her endlessly in return. If you’re ready for laughs, playtime, cuddles, and a daily dose of joyful nonsense, Daphnee might just be your perfect match. The Fine Print (aka: Daphnee’s Disclaimer): Daphnee would do best in a cat-free and toddler-free home — this girl has zero comprehension of her own enthusiasm and may accidentally overwhelm smaller creatures and tiny humans. Kennel training is currently a work in progress. She approaches it with the same chaotic enthusiasm she brings to all things — like she’s the slightly dramatic heiress of her crate kingdom. With consistency (and maybe some snacks), she’s getting the hang of it. Daphnee will thrive with a confident, committed owner who can continue her training, reinforce structure, and help her grow into the amazing dog she’s meant to be.

Meet Katie! Katie is a sweetheart who’s ready to find her forever family! She’s fun, silly, affectionate, and full of personality. Katie absolutely loves kids and is wonderful with other dogs — she takes cues from them and respects their boundaries. She’s currently fostered with both small dogs and a big dog and gets along great with everyone! As a playful puppy, Katie would do best with a dog-savvy cat if she joins a home with feline friends. She’s crate trained and about 99% potty trained (though a few accidents are to be expected as she adjusts to a new environment). Katie rides perfectly in the car when tethered, loves spending time outdoors, and can’t get enough of her toys. She’s also a world-class cuddler who loves to snuggle up after a fun day of play. This sweet girl would thrive in an active home that wants a loving companion for adventures, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. If you’d like to meet this amazing girl, please complete an application — Katie can’t wait to meet you!
