Retriever and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Rita is a sweet, gentle girl who loves nothing more than a belly rub. She has been quiet, calm and loves attention and affection.

Rita is estimated to be 4 year 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.
