*Come meet Rex at our adoption event on Saturday March 1 at Pet Supplies Plus in Roseville!*
Rex is a 1.5yo, 50lb Shepsky mix who is your definition of fun and floppy! Rex came to MN in Feb 2025 and has gotten to experience his first big snow with Minnesota scenery! Rex was originally picked up a stray, and kept in a foster home, but mostly stayed outside in his pen weather permitting. He is still working on marking, house training, and pulling on a leash. Rex is such an eager to please dog, he will do anything for a tasty treat and being told he is the best boy, (because he IS!) Rex has already learned sit, down, touch, and wait, in just 2 weeks in foster care!
After having lived outside for the first year of his life and being neutered just about a month ago, Rex is still working on learning not to mark in the house - but belly bands work great for this as he still learns that indoors is indoors. He takes nice long afternoon naps, and sleeps great in his crate overnight.
Rex would do best in a home that has space to play inside and outside, an adult dog friend, and a human friend who can keep up with his Husky shenanigans, and who can keep working with his basic training. Rex does show some prey drive, but we think it's closer to a game than a hunt, so lots of toys are going to be his favorite! Rex is currently fostered with a young pup, and does well with them, but would benefit from the companionship of an older dog to help teach him.
Rex is still a YOUNG dog. HE WILL JUMP. HE WILL CHEW THINGS. For this reason, we think Rex would be best around older kids until he learns his manners, size, and what items are his.

Additional adoption info
We do screen applications in terms of trying to find the best fit for what we know about the dog or cat. For instance if a dog his high energy, or needs a fence, or needs another dog (to be more secure, or happier) we try to select applicants that are a better match for the dog (or cat).

More about this rescue
We are a relatively small foster-based rescue group. We got started in rescue through a general love for animals and by coming across a dog that lived outside in a pen (in rural Minnesota). I was told that the owners probably did not want the dog. I met the dog myself and he was very desperate for human attention. I approached the owners several days later via a phone call and told them I had heard they might not want the dog, (from a neighbor) and I said, that I was aware of some rescues in MN and I could probably get the dog to rescue to find a home for him. I had not been connected with rescues prior to learning about this dog, but I started googling and researching rescues in MN and contacting them to ask if they could take this dog in. Almost every rescue I contacted told me there were too full, but one said they could take him in if he was neutered. I decided that, if the owner turned him over to me, I would get him neutered and vaccinated, etc. The owner surprisingly said yes, "sure I could take the dog." They knew he needed a better life, he had come to them as a stray and they kind of took him in.
So I made a vet appointment, drove out and got the dog and got him vetted, and made an arrangement to meet the rescue that took him in at the time (Homeward Bound) and I started volunteering with them, helping at their adoption events. I was able to be at an adoption event when this dog "Max" was getting adopted by a couple who had a fence and another dog. We kept in touch, I got to see what a beautiful life Max got to have, all because I decided to take some action. I kept volunteering with HB and other rescues for approximately 8 or so years and then gradually began the origins of RRR.
We have many volunteer foster homes, we have a Cat Coordinator and Office Manager, we have transport volunteers we work with and other kinds of temp volunteers. We are always looking for more volunteers, especially foster homes! We take in animals with sometimes more complex medical issues, that heretofore have never been addressed, so we always appreciate donations!
We do this because our eyes were opened to the vast amount of animals (more so in the southern states) that are in pounds and shelters and at constant risk of euthanization, homelessness or neglect (a life outside on a chain or in a pen). I learned from other rescues that if you put in the effort you can find these animals good homes. I always felt it was up to humans to make that difference since humans are mostly the reason they are subject to these dead-end situations they end up in. There are many wonderful homes that make all the difference to an animal that otherwise would face an early demise or a life of neglect.
