History: Our Out of the Cold Rescue efforts continue all winter long as we have recently welcomed another deserving group from our rural area partners in North Dakota.

A Note from the Foster: Sugar Bean is doing great. She has been with us for nearly a year now and is a wonderful family dog. She did amazing around many people throughout the holidays. While she is great with older children, she doesn’t always know how to play with younger ones and can be a bit too rough for them. This is an update that could be added to her profile.

Here are a few more things we have learned about Bean:

  - Toy Enthusiast: She loves playing with her toys and goes crazy for rubber balls. We got her a glow-in-the-dark ball that keeps her easily entertained for at least 30 minutes.
  - Winter Lover: She absolutely adores the snow and cold. She would happily stay outside all day in -20° weather if we let her!
  - Daily Zoomies: She has regular "zoomies" (both indoors and out) to let us know when she’s excited or happy.
  - Happy Noises: She makes a series of little grunts when she is happy and content, usually while snuggling next to us on the couch.

She is a sweet, unique, and playful pup whose personality shines every day. Anyone would be lucky to have her.

Adoption Fee: $510 + 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!
