A Note from the Foster: Hello, my rescue name is Isaac but my foster calls me Happy! I’m a 4yr old, 14 lbs, Maltese happy doggie! I’m friendly with everyone I meet (after an initial sniff test).
I arrived in MN not long ago.
I spent my whole life in a commercial breeding facility and I’m ready to for a home to call my own. I have so much to learn and my foster thinks that I’m doing great so far.
I’m still figuring out where outside I should go potty. The sidewalk seems just fine to me but my foster keeps showing me that the grass is the best place. Sometimes I get it right, other times I just think the sidewalk is a perfect spot. I wear a belly band in the house but I have not gone potty inside.
I sleep in my crate all night and I always keep it clean. Sometimes my foster puts me in the crate when she leaves and I don’t complain about that. I just take a nap until she gets back.
There’s another foster doggie in the house but she’s not very playful. It would be great if there’s another doggie in your house that I could play with. My foster says that sometimes I have puppy energy. I make her laugh ☺️
I’m learning about walking on a leash. Sometimes I bite the leash because I just want to play. Other times I just want to run and play but the leash stops me. I love the walks\play time out side. I love the grass and I like to run in circles and play. I like to rub my body against the bushes. It makes me happy.
My foster parent is still getting to know me. You will get more information if you want to meet me. I can’t wait to meet you.
Adoption Fee: $550 + 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!
