Story

History: Our Out of the Cold Rescue Effort was a great success in welcoming over 180+ animals to rescue from rural areas in North Dakota before the cold set in. These animals are all so deserving and thankful to get a second chance in finding a forever home of their own! A Note from the Foster: Greetings! If you are a Greek Mythology fan you may have heard of my namesake; Boreas, the god of the north wind. My name was chosen for me because I was part of the OOTC (Out of the Cold) rescue effort that happens each November to help save dogs like me from spending the frigid winter fending for ourselves. Now that I have explained my name, I want to tell you about me! I am a sweet, big boy who is still learning how big I really am. I am also working on basic manners because no one ever taught me how to be the best boy until I came to rescue. I love to run and play around the yard with the other dogs in my foster home. Chasing each other around the yard is fun. I love to chase the ball if you throw it, but the concept of picking it up and bringing it back is completely lost to me (for now). So many things to learn! It is clear that I have not had a lot of exposure to things like leashes or being in a home. I am working really hard on learning how to be a good boy. My foster momma says it's a good thing I am adorable. I will need a family that can help me continue to learn how to be the best boy. Maybe that's you?

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Kittee! Don't let her stunning Akita looks fool you, Kittee isn't your typical aloof Akita – she's an extra-friendly sweetheart! This magnificent girl is a strong, powerful breed, and while she'd never use her strength against you, she thrives with an understanding owner who can provide confident direction. She's got an independent, stubborn streak, but it's all part of her charm! At heart, Kittee is still a playful puppy. Her favorite game? Fetch with herself! You'll often find her joyfully tossing her toys around. When it's time for bed, Kittee is a clean kennel keeper, though she might put on the breaks a little when first going in. She absolutely adores outdoor adventures, whether it's exploring with you or enjoying some independent sniff time. Kittee is a cuddly girl, especially after a good romp. She treats everyone like her best friend, greeting them with an open heart. Her bouncy playstyle is contagious, especially when she’s chasing tennis balls and rope toys – just don’t expect a perfect retrieve every time! If you're ready for a strong, loving, and slightly goofy companion, Kittee is eager to meet her forever family! Kittee will need to be the only dog in the home or adopted into a home with a submissive, neutered male dog. Kittee came into rescue with swelling in her leg, and after veterinary evaluation and cytology, she’s been diagnosed with a sarcoma with high suspicion of osteosarcoma. Because of this diagnosis, Kittee will be available as a hospice adoption. Our goal with hospice adoptions is to give animals like Kittee the chance to live in loving family homes, surrounded by care and comfort, for however much time they have left rather than staying in rescue. For full transparency: there is no true cure for osteosarcoma. The typical recommendation is amputation of the affected leg with radiation or chemotherapy. Without treatment, average life expectancy is 4–6 months; with treatment it may be extended up to two years. Because Kittee is a young, large dog, we’ve decided not to put her through the pain and recovery of amputation, but instead focus on her comfort and quality of life. She is currently on pain medication to help keep her comfortable and mobile, and we’ll continue to monitor her needs closely. Kittee is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Yuki

Husky Husky

Female, 5 yrs

Blaine, MN

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Name: Yuki Sex: Female Color: Isabella White Eye Color: Brown Birthday: 11/15/20 Weight: 49lbs Large Dog Friendly: Yes, good with new dogs she meets. Does best with male dogs. Small Dog Friendly: So far, she has been good with the few smaller dogs she has met on leash. Cat Friendly: NO - very high prey drive. Crate Trained: Very short periods of time, and only while we are home. Trusted to free roam when we’re not home, but our home is pretty much husky-proof. Has a history of harming herself when crated in her first foster home. Housebroken: Yes, she will let you know when she needs to go out. Energy Level: She has her calm times and long naps, and she also gets zoomies and loves to play rough a few times a day like most huskies. She loves walks and loves to be outside watching squirrels or bunnies in a fenced yard. Reaction to New People: Good with adults and older kids. Working on manners and socialization. Kid Friendly: Older, calmer kids are best for her. Smaller children make her nervous, especially if they get too close too fast. Training: She knows the basics; sits before getting her food dish and is pretty good at coming when called. Could use some better leash manners but has improved. She really wants to meet and play with other friendly dogs on walks. She would likely benefit from some socialization to gain confidence in new/public situations. Like most huskies, she is a runner, so caution by the doors and getting in and out of the car is needed. Grooming Needs: Normal husky coat brushing about once a week or so, more when blowing her coat. She does shed less than other huskies we’ve had, her fur is on the shorter side which helps. Does okay with baths but only needs that once or twice a year. Gets dirty while playing, but the dirt tends to fall off quickly – it’s a husky thing. Fence: Yuki would do best with at least a 4-foot-high fence, 6 feet would be better. She loves to be outside; rain or snow do not bother her much. She hasn’t tried to dig out lately but is a true husky escape artist so should be supervised even with a fence! Solo or Siblings: Yuki would do best with a male dog with lots of energy to match hers in play. Preferably male husky (or other high energy dog) around her age or younger. Once she got comfortable in her foster home, she started being less tolerant of female dogs in the home. We’ve been working on that. She could also do well as a solo dog, with lots of play and attention to get her energy out. From the Foster: Yuki is a sweet, furry little princess who loves attention and belly rubs. She has her relaxation times and has her zoomies and loves to play. She’s a bit shy and hesitant in new situations and would benefit from socialization and group training class. Like a typical husky, she loves to run, climb, jump etc, so may also benefit from joring or agility classes. She loves attention and belly rubs; she will lay on her back and paw at you or reach out to you for more if you stop. She is quite a talker, like many huskies are, and when the neighborhood dogs bark, she howls to join in. She is an all-around adventurous, loving, curious and goofy girl who may be shy and nervous at first, but who settles in fairly quickly to be her true husky self. She would love to have a more mature human or family to experience life with, and to help her learn to enjoy the world

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Name: Zorro Sex: Male Color: Black/White Eye Color: Blue Birthday: 05/13/25 Weight: 32 lbs Dog Friendly: Yes! He plays well with dogs of all sizes. Zorro loves to play and understands when other dogs give him a signal to stop. Cat Friendly: Had a brief encounter with a cat and did not chase. Kid Friendly: Yes, he enjoys being around kids. He may jump when he’s excited or playful. Reaction to New People: Very easy—he loves attention and meeting new people. Crate Trained: Yes – he sleeps quietly in his crate overnight and also settles in during the day when needed. Housebroken: About 95 % there. He rings the doggy doorbell to go out, though sometimes he tries to use it for extra walks. Energy Level: Medium – playful in the mornings through mid-afternoon, then calms down. Training: Knows sit and come; still working on additional commands. Grooming Needs: Weekly brushing to keep him comfortable and used to handling. Fence Needs: Foster home does not have a fence. He does well on a zip line, but with a tie-out he tends to dig. Solo or Siblings: Happy either way – he can play with other dogs or keep himself entertained. From the Foster Zorro is a smart, loving, and playful pup who learns quickly and enjoys being part of the family. He’s already picked up sit and come and is eager to continue training with his new people. At night, he’s usually settled in his crate by 9:30 pm and sleeps well until morning as long as he goes potty before bed, only whining around 6 am when he needs to go outside. He is doing wonderfully with crate training, is making great progress with house training, and even rings the doggy doorbell when he wants to go out (though sometimes he tries it just for fun). Zorro is very affectionate—he loves to play, but he also loves to cuddle up with his people. With his gentle, playful spirit and eagerness to learn, Zorro will make a fantastic companion. Zorro has a heart condition called Mitral valve dysplasia (MVD). He has been seen by a cardiologist and there is no treatment or medications needed currently. He will need a recheck with a cardiologist when he turns one. Adoption Fee: $450 All dogs coming into Adopt a Husky Minnesota receive care tailored to their needs, including: Nose-to-tail exam with a partner veterinarian, Vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, Leptospirosis, Bordetella), 4DX test to check for heartworm or tick exposure, Fecal Analysis, Heartworm and Flea/Tick Preventative, Spay/Neuter prior to adoption, Microchip, and are evaluated for temperament and trainability.

Working on wait/stay Grooming Needs: Great for baths, I think she has reasonable shedding for a husky Fence: Yes, respects my 4ft chain link Solo or Siblings: I think she would do best with a friend that likes to play, can tolerate or match her high energy. More about Poppy: She is sweet, funny, and spring loaded. I love how she literally pops in the air when she is excited. She’s talkative, but not incessantly. She loves walks and would love someone to run with. She bonds quickly and would love someone that works from home or didn’t have to leave her for long periods of time. She has done great with all dogs at the dog park and does well with my crazy pack of 3. She has lived with cats most of her life (in different homes) and has done well with all of them. She is not particularly food motivated but we are learning some of her favorites, especially rotisserie chicken. Huge fan of toys and will chase them, but hasn’t yet figured out the bring it back part. Contact Information: Katie 507-251-3549, barrelburner4@aol.com
