Areas Minnesota Pit Stop Rescue serves

Minnesota Pit Stop Rescue is located in Winona, MN along the Mississippi River and rolling bluffs. We are a small non-profit group that focuses on education, promoting the dog-human relationship, rescue, and adoption. We serve the Winona area, but in dogs from around the region, and we don't have adoption restrictions for distance other than we want adopters to meet the dog in person before adopting; we will not ship dogs.

Minnesota Pit Stop Rescue's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Potential adopters are asked to fill out a short adoption application so that we can gather info to better match your lifestyle needs to dogs we may have available for adoption. Adoption fees vary per dog depending on how long we've had the dog, medical expenses, and training.

About Minnesota Pit Stop Rescue

We are passionate about animals and their people. We want to help keep animals in their homes by providing training and behavior services. For dogs that we take into rescue, we provide them with a loving, structured environment. When potential adopters apply to adopt, we do our best to educate and help them transition their new furry family member into their home. We are huge advocates for the Bully Breeds, and want to adopt out great breed ambassadors.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
