Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Hello, I'm Sadie! I am a 3 year old adorable mini Aussie. I love to be with my people and give them cuddles and kisses. Bathtime, nail trimming, and hair cutting made me nervous, but I am a real champ and with some encouragement and love I made it through unscathed. I am also very interested in the resident dog here and they are making me feel more comfortable and giving me some extra confidence! I have also been great around children when I meet them. I am fully potty trained and am great at letting my people know I need to go do my business outside by barking or scratching at the door. I would love to end up in a forever home that will give me lots of affection, be patient with training me in some manners (I'm learning, but don't have a lot of prior experience), and is ready to have me lovingly under your feet at all times.

Sadie is estimated to be 3 years old and 30 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.

We are also holding the following upcoming adoption events!

Please note: All dogs/puppies will not be at every event, and some may find their home prior to the event. If you are interested in a specific animal, please check our Facebook page for confirmed attendance the morning of the event: https://www.facebook.com/safehandsrescue/
