Fanny is a laid-back, easygoing little lady with a calm and gentle spirit. She doesn't meet a stranger and has a wonderfully even-tempered personality. With her low energy level and love of lap time, she's the perfect companion for someone looking for a relaxed, affectionate friend. Fanny does well with adult men, adult women, and small dogs. She likely would be good with most people, though little children may startle her. She can be playful at times but would also do perfectly fine as an only dog. She's independent without being distant and enjoys simply being near her person. She is leash trained and mostly house trained (with access to a doggy door). Fanny is generally quiet, but she definitely knows when it's mealtime - and she'll give you a little bark reminder to keep you on schedule! Fanny was found as a stray just before a recent freeze. Someone had posted asking for help, and thankfully she was rescued in time. She was very underweight when found, and after a vet visit it was discovered she needed to begin heart medication. Since starting her medication, she has done wonderfully - gaining weight, feeling stronger, and showing more pep in her step every day. She truly is an easy pup who just wants a safe, loving home where she can relax and be cared for. Fanny has been through a lot, and now she's ready for a stable forever family who will continue giving her the love and medical care she needs. Fanny would make a wonderful, low-key companion for someone who appreciates a calm, loyal little shadow by their side! Fanny is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 03/07/2026 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 8:30am and noon. 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.
