FREDERICK *ARRIVING 8/9* - BORDER COLLIE / PIT BULL TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Border Collie / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 600. Fredrick was rescued from the Huntsville shelter, and while we don’t know much about his past, it’s clear he’s all about the future—especially if that future includes belly rubs, toys, and a cozy spot on the couch. This guy is pure charm, from his one blue and one brown eye to his goofy, affectionate personality. Fredrick is friendly with everyone and has a great time romping around with big dogs and kids. He’s playful, curious, and full of energy... until he crashes for an afternoon nap, ideally with his head resting on you. Fredrick is crate trained, sleeps through the night, and is working on perfecting his potty routine. He’ll whine a little at first when crated or left outside, but he settles quickly. He loves chase and tug-of-war and is eager to learn whatever you’re willing to teach him. If you’re looking for a loyal playmate and snuggle buddy with a dash of mischief and a lot of heart, Fredrick just might be your guy. Frederick is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 8/9 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 9AM and 11AM. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
