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: This girl from Out of the Cold will capture your heart with her inquisitive/curious nature and her snuggles! Daphne loves to be by her people to give kisses, snuggles or play fetch (well, except for the return to you part yet).
In just a few days she has learned several commands including: sit, stay, come, and outside. Incredibly food motivated to learn and please, but understands boundaries of the counter and table. She is learning that she does not need to bring your things to you if they are on the floor but it sure is cute to watch!!
Daphne is fully potty trained and is comfortable in the kennel while you're around but is still working on being in the kennel while we're away. She loves chasing rabbits and squirrels around in the yard and is a good walker who loves to explore!
Daphne is just beyond happy to be rescued and her future family will be the recipients of that love and happiness!!
Adoption Fee: $560 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
