My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Pete, the most polite and charming dog you'll ever encounter. Intelligent and eager to please, Pete quickly learns and respects boundaries. He sits patiently while you fill his bowl, stays for treats, and easily adapts with just a bit of guidance.

Affectionate and gentle, Pete loves cuddles and treats his stuffed animals with care. He's made remarkable progress in learning manners and boundaries with the resident dogs. Resource and toy reactivity are mostly a thing of the past—Pete now eats calmly alongside other dogs, sits patiently for treats, and generally shares his bones.

Pete has also improved significantly with the resident cats. Where he once chased and tussled with them, he now simply acknowledges their presence and moves on. Despite these improvements, Pete would thrive best in a home with experienced dog owners who understand body language and are committed to his ongoing training and behavioral growth.

Pete is energetic and smart, needing both mental and physical exercise. Ideally, he should be in a cat-free home or one with confident, dog-savvy cats. He loves other dogs and would do well with a canine companion, provided the owner is diligent in monitoring interactions and redirecting any potential bad habits.

Everyone who meets Pete falls for his charming and funny personality, complete with an adorable “old man” face. If you’re an experienced dog owner ready for a loyal and loving companion, Pete is ready to bring joy and laughter into your home.

Additional adoption info

We want to be sure that the adoption process is as smooth and positive an experience as possible. Our animals are in foster homes and we do everything we can to learn as much about their likes and dislikes, temperament and activity level as we can while in our care. By doing so, it enables us to work more closely with a potential adopter to help ensure a "good fit." The adoption process might take a bit longer than adopting from a shelter, but our ultimate goal is finding a match that benefits not just the animal, but also the family interested in adopting.

We are looking to let our adopters chose the speed of the adoption process. To start the process, we require that an adoption application be completed. Once submitted, we will connect with you to discuss the type of animal you're looking for, your lifestyle and home environment, and what the best fit may be. At times, we may request to conduct a home visit, which can often be done in tandem with what we refer to a "meet and greet" where you have the opportunity to meet and interact with the animal(s) you're interested in adopting. Ad part of our process we conduct background check on all applicants, will check personal and vet references also. Our goal is always the proper placement for any adopted animal, which may mean that the animal you originally are interested in may turn out to not be the best fit, but we will work with you to find a better match. Adoption fees include spaying/neutering of all animals, age appropriate vaccinations ad microchipping and range anywhere from $80-$175 for cats and $200-$450 for dogs.

Prior to finalizing adoptions we require a signed Contract & Agreement which includes an understanding that if for any reason the animal does not work out that you will return them back to The Rescue Crew.

Go meet their pets

As all of our animals are in private foster homes, we do not have a facility where adoptable animals can be met. However, we do host adoption events occasional throughout the Twin Cities metro area, and those will be posted both on our website and Facebook pages.

More about this rescue

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit Minnesota-based animal rescue organization which strives to prevent the unnecessary euthanasia of companion animals by finding them loving forever homes. The Rescue Crew was established specifically to fill a need in the local Twin Cities metro area to help shelter animals facing imminent risk of euthanasia without rescue support.

OUR MISSION: We are here to help save the lives of companion animals in need. Those who are homeless; the abused or abandoned; the neglected and unloved, and to show them human compassion and kindness, ultimately helping them become valued family members in a loving home.

OUR VISION: We envision the day where every adoptable animal has the opportunity of finding a responsible, loving home. A world where pets are no longer mistreated, abused or abandoned.
