History: Breaking news from the kennel wire: A basket full of Arkansas puppies just completed the most lopsided trade in Minnesota sports history! Heading north to Minnesota in exchange for “future considerations”. The pups arrived, immediately demanded sweaters then signed long-term contracts as professional lap warmers. Arkansas says they’ll miss them; Minnesota says they just upgraded their roster with elite snuggle stats and zero salary cap!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Rossi 💗

With her stunning brindle coat, soft white accents, and those deep, sweet eyes, Rossi is as beautiful as she is gentle. This little girl has a calm, easygoing nature and tends to take in the world thoughtfully before jumping in—she just likes a moment to figure things out.

Once she’s comfortable, her playful and curious side shines. She loves exploring, playing with other pups, and quietly tagging along behind her people—she’ll happily become your little shadow. Rossi is also a top-tier snuggler and enjoys cozying up whenever she gets the chance.

She’s had great exposure to kids and other dogs and does wonderfully, though she can be a bit cautious at first in new situations. Give her a little patience and reassurance, and you’ll see her confidence bloom.

Rossi is the kind of pup who forms a deep, loyal bond and will be right by your side through all of life’s little moments—just waiting for a home where she can feel safe, loved, and truly hers.

Adoption Fee: $760 + 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!
