Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Scarlet - she is the perfect mix of cuddle bug and little adventurer!
She takes her snuggles *seriously*— if it were a job, she'd be employee of the month. Her favorite nap spot? All the way under the covers — making her the best winter companion for those chilly Minnesota nights. Your feet will thank you!
Though she’s a little shy at first, it doesn’t take long for this tiny dynamo to warm up and become the life of the party. Once she lets her guard down, she’s full of joy, playful energy, and endearing quirk. Despite her small size, she’s all heart and loves to romp around with her two foster brothers (who are basically giants compared to her!).
She adores other dogs, humans of all sizes, and anyone who’s ready to spare a snuggle. Don’t be surprised if she gently climbs right into your lap or curls up next to you. She’s a social butterfly who loves everyone! If you’ve got a camera handy, have it ready to snap some super Insta-worthy moments.
She’s spent time around cats and is curious, but always respects their boundaries. She’s also made great strides with potty training, and though she still has a little work to do, she’s mastered the puppy pad game and is making progress every day.
Her energy is contagious. She’ll have you laughing, playing, and wanting to be by her side every moment. Her ultimate goal? To be your best friend, and trust us, she’ll do it in style. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly companion who’s ready to light up your life, she’s your girl!
Scarlett is estimated to be 6.5 months old and 18 lbs. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested. If you are interested in meeting this dog please complete the adoption application on our website at https://safehandsrescue.org/adoption-process/ and then we can contact you about setting up a meeting.
