My personality

My story

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

Odin is being fostered in East TN, no worries though out of state welcomed! If you are seeing this on Adopt a Pet his adoption feed includes his cost of transport to your area! We use Rescue Riders for all our pet transport needs because they are so wonderful to our babies!

East TN, out of state welcome!

Meet Odin! This handsome lad is a snuggler like nobody’s business. He loves the water and loves to swim. He is sweet to everyone people and dogs alike. He is very skittish of meeting new people and will run as fast and far away from them as possible however once he knows you he loves you fiercely. He will probably take a few days to a week to trust you . He is fearful of strangers and may pee on himself if he is spooked but this is just a fear response and not a potty training issue he is house trained, He is not dog park material due to his fear of new people. He is learning to become more confident everyday with his amazing foster mom and hopefully he can overcome his fear of new people and things. An apartment type setting would not be best for Odin he will need a large yard to run and play in.

He has anxiety in the crate and does not do well and will harm himself if left alone in the crate. He is doing fantastic out of the crate but will need to be let out to potty after four to five hours He craves human attention and is a Velcro dog. He is active and the more exercise he gets the less stress and anxious he is when he is left alone. The old saying a tired dog is a good dog stands true for this boy. Mental and physical stimulation will be best for him. He has a great recall once he knows you.
A home with older children would be best without lots of loud sudden noises and voices. A home that doesn’t have as much traffic and changes will be good for him. A home with a confident but not dominant dog would be amazing for him and if you have access to a lake or stream or swimming pool etc he will be in heaven. He loves the water and identifies as a fish when he jumps in!

Additional adoption info

All our rescues work hard to find loving homes for the dogs, cats, kittens, and puppies that find their way into their care. These animals come from a wide variety of backgrounds and situations and all of them are looking for a forever home.

They will be completely vaccinated, vetted, neutered/spayed (if age appropriate) and on heartworm protection. All of them come with complete medical records. They are transported to you with our USDA licensed and certified transport – Rescue Riders LLC, “The most animal-friendly transport on the road.”

Their adoption fees vary but, in all cases, it covers the animals vetting, vaccinations, spay/neuter as well as their foster care, and their transportation to your area.

Thank you for opening your home to a rescue animal.

ADOPT, DON'T SHOP.

Go meet their pets

Our rescues generally do not have an actual shelter building in the Chicago area. This means it is often not possible to meet these babies prior to their adoption however all of these rescues have been rehoming dogs to the north for many years and are happy to offer you references who can fill you in on their experience and how well the process works.

There is generally a money-back guarantee and a mechanism for returning the dog to the rescue if needed. All these rescues then work to re-home the animal. None are returned to a shelter. We never leave a rescue behind!

More about this rescue

Rescue Riders Cooperative is a group of rescues across the southeast that are linked together by our love of animals and our desire to see as many as possible in the loving arms of a new family. Each rescue is independently run but realizing that there is strength in numbers, we have formed a cooperative to work together to place as many animals as possible.

Not only do the rescues save these animals and give them badly needed health care but they also work tirelessly in their home communities to help educate people regarding the importance of spay & neuter and how it reduces pet overpopulation.

When you adopt one of their dogs you help with this mission. We all thank you for that support and for opening your home and heart to an animal who needs you. You are a hero!
