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: Hey there, future best friend! I’m Ember, a young, wiggly, and wonderfully lanky girl who’s still growing into my legs (graceful? Not quite yet, but I’m working on it!). Sometimes I misjudge my body size and strength. I just shake it off and keep moving. I’ve got energy for days, a nose that loves to sniff out all the best smells, and a heart that’s 100% pure love. Plus, my name is super cool....Ember represents the spark of life and creativity. I can relate with both of those!

Right now, I’m learning my best manners—like keeping all four paws on the ground when I’m excited, walking nicely on a leash, and settling into my cozy kennel like a champ. But don’t worry, I’m a smart cookie and eager to learn! My foster momma tells me how smart I am and I promise to live up to that!

My favorite things? Playtime, snuggle time, and did I mention playtime? Whether it’s zoomies in the yard, a fun sniffari (that’s a fancy way of saying a walk where I get to sniff everything), or curling up for belly rubs after a long day, I’m happiest when I’m with my people.

If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, and slightly clumsy best friend who will keep you laughing and love you forever, I’m your girl! Let’s make it official—apply to meet me today!

Adoption Fee: $550 + 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!
