11.7.18 Featured Foster September Edition
Meet Juan!
 |
| Miles |
 |
| Lincoln |
Lincoln. He was an amazing little guy & so sweet!
Who is your current foster?
At the time, Miles. He was just adopted!
Why did you start volunteering?
Because all dogs need love and pit bulls need it more than most because of how they are looked upon as mean but that simply is not true.
How long have you been volunteering with our rescue?
Just over a year now.
Do you have any pets?
We have Jaxie (5 1/2) our dog, and Nova is our cat. We got Jaxie at 10 weeks through MPBR. Her name was Rylee when we got her. Nova is about 7.

| Jaxie |
Where is your favorite dog friendly place to take your pooches?
Jaxie loves to come to Home Depot with me. She gets pets and treats from all the employees. She loves it!
Lifting things up and down at my crossfit gym, or running around organizing art shows with my wife Danielle.

| Picking up Lincoln! |
Do you have a favorite memory with one of your fosters?
Too many to count!! But I'd say picking up our first foster Lincoln. He snuggled with Danielle the whole ride home. It was great!
Do you have a special ritual for your fosters?
I take so many pictures of all the pups we have. I will be making a scrapbook type thing when I get the time for sure.

Minnesota Pit Bull Rescue is 100% volunteer based-no shelters here! Each dog we are able to save is because a foster is willing to open their home for us

11.2.18 Meet Kaisa!
NEW TO MINNESOTA PIT BULL RESCUE
 |
| Kaisa |
Hello future family! My name is Kaisa (KISE-ah). I was born on June 20, 2014 and came to Minnesota Pit Bull rescue when I was just a pup as part of an unwanted litter. My foster family adopted me when I was 6-months old, but with a growing family, their life has become too busy and I’m sad I’m not the center of attention anymore. I’m looking for someone who’s home a lot and loves to snuggle because that’s my favorite thing to do. I’m learning how to control my excitement when our human friends come over and know a few basic tricks like sit and lay down. I’m also really good at waiting until my foster parents tell me it’s ok to eat. I like to go on walks, but still learning not to pull when I see other dogs.
I have a foster brother, Cooper, who is also a pit bull, and his overly calm demeanor helps me a lot if I get nervous – he’s like my emotional support dog! He’s nice company to have when it’s just us in the house, because I get scared when I’m locked in a crate. I typically don’t get along with other animals – I’d much rather spend time with humans. I even like little kids! My foster family has a 7-year-old, 2-year-old, and a little baby who cuddle and play with me all the time. Well, their toddler uses me more like a jungle gym, but I don’t mind because he lets me jump on the trampoline with him.

| Kaisa & Cooper |
If you are looking for a lovable sweetheart and don’t mind spoiling me with attention, I’m the girl for you. I look forward to meeting you!
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• Animal Aggression: Kaisa is only interested in being social with people, including small children. She does very well with her foster brother because of his age and extremely calm demeanor.
• Separation Anxiety/Claustrophobia: Kaisa would do best in an unconfined space, with someone at home with her most of the day. A limited view to the outdoors is also ideal to minimize her anxiousness with passersby, curious critters, or mysterious noises caused by the wind.
• Training: Kaisa is not food motivated but has learned basic commands through professional and home training. It is recommended that ongoing, consistent, professional training be continued to improve her performance on a leash and to come when called.
• A Natural Explorer: Kaisa has springs in her feet and yearns for adventure in the great outdoors. A sturdy 6-foot minimum privacy fence is required.

- Hello! My name is Beau and I'm a loveabull goofball! I am around 3.5-4 years old. I love to play and snuggle. I'm shy but I'm learning to have confidence and come out of my shell. I know basic commands, I great in my crate and I'm house trained! I'm still working on "come" and waiting. Whether you want a walking partner or a movie snuggle buddy I'm your guy! I'd be best in a home with older kids, the little ones are a kinda scary. I haven't really met any cats yet but I do like other pups. I would love a family that will take the time introducing me to new adventures!
