About

Meet Henry Burke

They don't come much better than Henry Burke. He loves everybody. He is a happy boy who loves his people. He gets very happy to see you when you get home. So much so, that he smiles with his teeth. It looks like he could be snarling, but his butt is wiggling and he is panting and smiling all at the same time. It is so adorable and funny. Henry is great with other dogs and doesn't seem to mind cats. He loves children and all the people that he has met. He rides well in the car. Walks mostly well on a leash, but could use some more training. He gets so excited to see other dogs, but being from the reservation, there weren't any leashes involved in meeting other dogs out there. His favorite things so far is pets and getting love. He loves to cuddle. He loves to give hugs. He hasn't yet figured out what toys are. He is good in his kennel when others around him are kenneled. He has also been a good boy being left out of his kennel. He is house trained. He will mark new places though, so expect to have that happen the first night or day. He doesn't continue to do it though. He is very smart. He knows some basic commands and picks up on things fast. He learned how to use the stairs to go to the basement in the first day and to use the doggy door. Henry is a true gem. He is awesome and fun and handsome. He would be a great first time dog as well.  Completion of an Adoption Application via our website (www.RescueCrew.org) is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in the adoption process. All companion animals adopted by The Rescue Crew are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLK (cats) or heartworm (dogs), microchipped, dewormed and provided with monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. The Rescue Crew is a foster based rescue organization, meaning all of our adoptable pets are located in homes throughout Minnesota. We do not have a physical location where you can stop by to visit the animals - we require the completion of an Adoption Application prior to meeting any of our adoptable pets in foster care. For the most complete information regarding this animal, and all of our adoptable pets, please ensure you are visiting our website directly at www.RescueCrew.org. You can also access the necessary online adoption application here as well.

Adoption Process
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.
