E.A. Poe Black Labrador Retriever & American Bulldog Mix Blaine, MN

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.
Hi, I'm Poe. I came from a local shelter where my time was up and needed a rescue. I came from a home that took me to the dog park so I could hang out with my friends. I am good with kids and other animals as well. What my foster mom didn't expect was how loyal and lovable I am. I follow her from room to room and sit by her side. Foster mom has some crabby senior dogs and a few young dogs living with her. The older dogs don't care for me much but that's okay. I give them a grin and go on my way and then play with the two dogs closer to my age. I share toys and I am not possessive of my food. I do love snacks and treats though! I am a big boy with a lot of energy so having a buddy to run with or another dog to play with would be greatly appreciated. I don't like being in the crate and do the cutest sad boy howl but will accept my time in there with a kong treat filled with peanut butter and treats. I come when I am called and know how to sit, shake and lay down. At night I sleep in foster mom's room with the other dogs and stay on my dog bed, not making a peep, until morning. I am a diamond according to my foster mom. She thinks my heart shows through my fur and is already in love with me. I am a catch!
