In the shelter’s words
About MeMeet Astra, a sweet and loyal companion who’s ready to find her forever family. Astra is a professional cuddler—she’ll happily snuggle up with you after a walk or a play session in the yard. She loves being your shadow, always close by and keeping a gentle, watchful eye on her people. She’s happiest when she can run outside with the kids or play in a pile of leaves, which is her favorite activity, and she’s always up for a walk or a soft treat.Astra is crate trained, is trained to sit and lay, and comes every time her name is called. She enjoys cats and children, but can get a bit excited around kids. She enjoys meeting new people and is friendly with visitors. She’s a little wary of crawling babies and needs very slow introductions to other dogs, but she can coexist peacefully once she’s comfortable. Astra is sensitive to unexpected loud noises, so a calm home would be ideal.Leash training and continued support with dog introductions will help Astra thrive as she can be reactive to other dogs. Potty training is also a work in progress. She's nervous in new environments so she's hopeful for a patient home while she gets accustomed. She’s come a long way—from South America to Texas to Minnesota—and is ready for a loving home where she can be your loyal companion.If you’re looking for a devoted friend who will always be by your side, Astra (or Mia, as her foster family calls her!) is waiting to meet you. Apply today to welcome her into your family! WHERE IS THIS PET LOCATED? The Rescue Crew is a foster-based rescue, which means all of our pets are cared for in homes throughout Minnesota.

Plan a visit with the source organization
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.
