About

Meet Skittle

About me:   Like the candy I’m named after, I’m sweet. I love to snuggle up to my special person wherever they are, whether my dog bed at my human’s feet while they settle in for their favorite show, or a human’s pillowtop mattress as we doze into slumber.    I enjoy short walks around the neighborhood to check out the area sniffs, but otherwise am a pretty lazy pup preferring to find a sunbeam and take a nap to the zoomies.   My love language is quality time. It may take some time for me to warm up, but once I do I love to be where my human(s) are. Whether running errands together in the car, being the clean up crew in the kitchen, or being tucked into bed, I’m happiest by your side.   About my match:    I have done well with dogs of varying sizes in the home but would also be happy as your only pup. I have not yet met a cat, so I can’t be sure whether we would be friendly or not.    I would do best in a quiet, calm home without children as I can be a bit skittish with quick movements or loud, unfamiliar noises.    Ultimately, I am looking for a soulmate that is patient, kind, and understanding as we grow together through trust and leash/manners training.    If you would like to meet Skittle, don’t waste timing swiping right. Apply to meet her at https://rescuecrew.org/adopt-animal-in-need/#adoptionapplication Completion of an Adoption Application via our website (www.RescueCrew.org) is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in the adoption process. All companion animals adopted by The Rescue Crew are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLK (cats) or heartworm (dogs), microchipped, dewormed and provided with monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. The Rescue Crew is a foster based rescue organization, meaning all of our adoptable pets are located in homes throughout Minnesota. We do not have a physical location where you can stop by to visit the animals - we require the completion of an Adoption Application prior to meeting any of our adoptable pets in foster care. For the most complete information regarding this animal, and all of our adoptable pets, please ensure you are visiting our website directly at www.RescueCrew.org. You can also access the necessary online adoption application here as well.

Adoption Process
Adoption applications must be completed, which include information regarding references and vet clinic information, DL #, names, etc. Reference checks are conducted and when necessary vetting information verified. Discussion about the animal interested in to best assure appropriate and proper placement is made, and educational information regarding how to manage a multi-dog/animal household, slow and proper introductions and the importance of a shut-down period to help the animal acclimate to new surroundings. A "meet and greet" with the animal is required and whenever possible all residents of the household should be present. Home checks may, but not always, be necessary. After adoption applications is approved a contract is required, where we also stipulate that if for any reason the adopter determines they no longer want or can care for the animal we require it be returned to us, with the exception of documented bite history or potentially dangerous or dangerous dog designations. Adoption fees vary, but are comparable to or less than other local rescues and typically are $300 or less for a canine and $150 for a feline.
