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: Hi, Rumi here! Now that the holidays are over, I just wanted to remind you that I am still looking for my new home! My current foster mama absolutely loves me and she is rooting for me to find my forever family. Here are a few "special" things about me:

***I am completely potty trained

***I sleep in my kennel and only whine if I have to go outside

***I sit

***I potty on demand outside

***I love snuggles when I'm sleepy

***My coat is sooo silky soft, it's fun to pet me

***My kisses are the BEST

***I love playing in the snow and playing fetch

***I don't mind going outside in the rain to potty

***I know the word "NO"

***I love kids and other dogs cuz I love to play. I haven't met any kitties yet though...But I'm sure I will like them too

***As you can see in the pictures, I love watching the deer and having stare downs with them

***I love being with you. I will follow you around...even to the bathroom

***I have the cutest eyeliner

***Finally, I am a big lover. My foster mama says I am the bestest girl ever! She leaves on vacation in a couple weeks and is hoping I can find my "people" before she leaves

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!
