Meet Dezi, the sweet southern belle from Texas! 🌟 This charming girl was surrendered by her previous owners and has traveled all the way to find her forever home with Ruff Start. With a gentle spirit and a heart full of love, Dezi is ready to steal your heart! She’s got that Texas charm that warms the soul. Dezi is already leash trained and crate trained, and she has her adorable little crate that she calls her "spot." 🐾 While she appreciates the safety of her cozy nook, her true joy comes from being near her humans! This affectionate girl loves to snuggle, and her favorite sleeping arrangement is right next to you! Though she had a few days of skepticism when arriving at her Texas foster family, Dezi quickly realized she was in good hands. It took just a little bit of time for her to warm up, and now she’s a little velcro pup who just wants to please! 🤗💖 Dezi is also remarkably potty trained, but it's important to keep in mind that some regression might happen during transitions. As long as she’s on a consistent potty break schedule and gets some help with kenneling when you’re away, she’ll bounce back in no time! Now, she’s developed a special bond with her foster mom but tends to be a little shy around men. It’s all about healing from past experiences, so patience and love are key. 🐶💕 As for the kitties, Dezi hasn’t been tested yet, so slow introductions would be best, along with making sure any resident cats feel safe! And if there are older, respectful kids in the house, she’d love to be part of the mix too! If you’re searching for a four-legged partner in crime, Dezi is your girl! Ready to embark on life’s great adventures together? Then don’t wait any longer! Apply to adopt this loving pup today through the Buddy App. She just can’t wait to meet you! 💕🐕 Remember, Dezi will arrive in Minnesota on February 7th, 2026, and will need to be picked up from Ruff Start Rescue in Princeton, MN between 9 AM and noon. Make those plans, and let’s get ready for love! 💖
