Story

Hi there! I’m Glitterati—and yes, I’m as dazzling as my name suggests. I’m a one-year-old Maltese boy with big brown eyes and a heart that’s just as soft as my fluffy coat. If you’re looking for a little shadow to follow you around, a toy-tossing champion, and a professional snuggler all in one tiny 12-pound package… well, you just found him. I warm up to people quickly and love being part of the action. Toys are one of my favorite things, and I’ve got just the right balance of playful energy and cuddle-up-next-to-you sweetness. After a fun play session, I’m more than happy to curl up and relax by your side. I’m also a pretty polite little gentleman. I sleep quietly in my crate at night or when you’re away, and I do a great job heading outside to take care of business. And don’t worry about the Minnesota winters—I rock my coat like a runway model and head out like a pro. I haven’t met kids or cats yet, but with my easygoing, affectionate personality, my people think I’ll do just fine with the right introductions. If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, and loyal companion who will brighten your days and warm your lap, I just might be your perfect match. 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. You can also access the necessary online forms here as well. ##2635838##

Little Tom

Story

History: Little Tom is a handsome little fella who arrived to rescue recently and immediately warmed our hearts. He is officially ready to start his journey in finding his forever home and hopes to find them soon! A Note from the Foster: Little Tom is a bundle of energy who loves to run and play with his toys, tossing them on the floor and wrestling with them. He is officially ready to start his journey in finding his forever home and hopes to find them soon! He likes to play Alpha dog to my more passive female, but I do not have concerns of it being an issue with more confident dog friends, He loves being the center of attention and would do well as the only dog in the home. He would thrive in a home where his people are home a lot as he gets a bit anxious if left for long periods of time. Little Tom enjoys sitting in my lap or by my side to be snuggled and nap. At night, he prefers sleeping on the sofa or in my bed. Little Tom likes to have his voice heard and would not do well in a home with shared walls. I continue to work with him on barking and think that will improve as his confidence also improves. He is doing well with house training using puppy pads since his neuter surgery. He will need to work on going potty outside as his next step to being fully house trained. Little Tom enjoys going out on the deck to watch the animals in the back yard. He also loves to get his zoomies out by running around the house and chasing his tail. He’s cautious around new people, but warms up quickly when approached respectfully. Little Tom does well traveling in a car. He needs more practice learning to walk on a leash, and as the weather improves I am confident he will learn quickly. I have loved having him in my home as he is a very sweet little guy who loves being with his caretaker.

Story

History: Princess is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She quickly wriggled her way into our hearts with how sweet and loving she is and she would make a great addition to a lucky home of her own soon! A Note from the Foster: Hi, I’m Princess, although my foster family calls me Peanut. My foster mom says I am a 10 pound bundle of sweetness. I’m very shy but I’m starting to understand that this new world is full of snuggles, warm beds and lots of good food. I like to be in the same room with my people and sit near them on the couch. I’d rather not be picked up, though. I sleep quietly in my kennel and keep it clean. As long as I can go outside regularly, I don’t have accidents in the house. I love being outside! I love to chase my foster brother around the yard,even though he’s three times bigger than me. And when we’re done playing, I like to snuggle on the couch with him and my even bigger brother. I’m very quiet. I love food! But I don’t like to eat when anyone is watching me and I don’t like to take treats from anyone’s hands. My foster mom is working with me to get past that so that I can learn things like going up and down stairs and walking on a leash. She says that will really open up my world, but it’s hard for me to trust people right now. I’m working on getting braver and my mom says I’m really making a lot of progress. I’ve come a long way in just a few weeks. She tells me all the time how wonderful I am; I’m starting to believe her. My foster mom and I hope I find a forever family who understands that I’m a timid girl and will give me as much time and patience as I need to get comfortable. We both think I’m a perfect fit for just the right family!

Story

History: Annalise is a beautiful girl who arrived to rescue recently and immediately warmed our hearts. She is officially ready to start her journey in finding her forever home and hopes to find them soon! A Note from the Foster: Annalise’s story is one of quiet resilience and blossoming joy. For the first four years of her life, she knew only the confines of a crate. She missed out on the gentle touch of a loving hand, the freedom to run, and the comfort of a family. But despite that hard start, Annalise has a heart that overflows with hope. Her tail wags endlessly, and her eyes shine with the desire to trust, love, and belong. Personality This little girl radiates happiness. Annalise adores the company of other dogs and finds her greatest joy in play. Big or small, she doesn’t mind—she just wants a buddy who will wrestle and romp with her. Her very best friend right now is a 40-pound Wheaten Terrier, and together they remind us what second chances look like. Though still a bit skittish, Annalise’s determination to connect is inspiring. She leans into her humans, wagging furiously, and when night falls, she longs to be close—curled up by your side, finally feeling safe. Training & Home Life Potty Training: A work in progress, but she’s eager to learn with gentle guidance. Leash Training: She hasn’t yet learned the leash, so a patient family will need to help her discover the outside world at her own pace. Eating Habits: Annalise is a wonderful eater—mealtime is one of her favorite parts of the day! Sleeping Style: At bedtime, she wants nothing more than to snuggle near her people, soaking up the love she missed for so long. Ideal Home Annalise’s perfect home is one filled with kindness, patience, and play. Another playful dog is essential for her happiness—someone who will wrestle, chase, and teach her all the joys of being a dog. Because she isn’t leash trained yet, a secure fenced yard (or safe outdoor space) will give her the freedom she’s never had while keeping her safe. She came from a place of confinement, but her future is bright. With every tail wag, every joyful bounce, and every tentative snuggle, Annalise shows us her bravery and her boundless capacity for love. If you open your heart to her, Annalise will gift you with unwavering devotion, daily joy, and the privilege of witnessing a soul truly set free.

Story

History and a Note from the Foster: Meet Phyllis! She's a sophisticated little lady who came up from a shelter in TX wearing her most beautiful pearl necklace. She's a 12-yr-old maltipoo, who is mostly blind and hard of hearing. I do believe she can see shadows/light, and she can hear when I clap. She's confident, though, and adapts well to new surroundings. Phyllis has been living with 2 small senior resident dogs and a foster cat. She's also spent time with my furnephew, who is a very large, senior australian shepherd mix. She gets along well with everyone. She's earned the nickname Goldilocks, because she loves sleeping in all of the dog beds, and doesn't hesitate to make herself comfy in someone's kennel/bed. When Phyllis came to rescue, she had some health issues we needed to address, so she started in our Mighty Mutt program. She had a golf ball-sized lipoma removed from her chest, a dental with several extractions, and had an echocardiogram to diagnose her grade 2/3 heart murmur. She's on low dose of one med twice a day, and has started preferring canned food to kibble. She has super soft fur, and needs to be groomed every couple months to keep her looking her best. When the weather is nice, Phyllis enjoys going out for "a saunter and a sniff". She doesn't walk far, just down a few houses to the corner and few more down the next block, but she loves her sniffs along the way. She especially enjoys catching up on all the neighborhood happenings at the street sign on the corner. In the winter, she's content to go outside long enough to do her business and then come back in where it's warm. She does have accidents now and then, but often will hit a potty pad instead of the hard flooring. Phyllis has enjoyed many field trips and melts hearts wherever she goes. During the summer and fall, she went to my nieces' ball and soccer games. She's also gone to visit my parents at their senior living place. She's given her best cuddles to my dad, happy to sit/lay next to him on the couch. Given her size and vision/hearing difficulties, I do think Phyllis would be most comfortable in a quiet home. She would do well with other furry companions or by herself. Phyllis is a darling little honey who brings joy and love to those around her.

Story

History: Fynn is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon! A Note from the Foster: Fynn is adjusting to life with a family. He walks well on a leash, but walks are short due to stamina. He loves playing with the resident dog. He would do best in a home with another dog to show him the ropes. A home with shared walls would not be recommended because he can be very vocal. Potty training is coming along. He wears a belly band for marking issues. He sleeps all night in his kennel without a peep. He is working on being in the kennel during the day and when the family leaves the house. He gets very attached to one person and will be by your side always. He is looking forward to joining a family and living his best life!
