Dixie is a 6-year-old, 75.3-pound, Lab mix! Dixie is a friendly gal who loves other dogs, is fully potty trained, and can't get enough of her stuffed animals! Dixie is a high energy adult dog who would thrive in a home where she can get lots of exercise and adventure with her forever family! Dixie is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. You can visit her at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

More about this shelter

OUR MISSION

We strive to ensure a safe, healthy, and loving environment that will provide temporary shelter for abandoned, stray, and surrendered animals and to find each animal a new and prosperous home.
The Babinski Foundation is a private 501c3 animal shelter located in Pequot Lakes, MN. We are a safe place to surrender dogs and cats. We also are a stray drop-off facility for stray cats and dogs.

OUR STORY

The Babinski Foundation was established in 2010 by Donald and Elizabeth Babinski owners and founders of Babinski Properties which owns multifamily housing in Minnesota, Florida and South Dakota. He and his wife Elizabeth were working tirelessly to get the animal shelter opened which was their dream, but Donald Babinski passed away August 11th, 2014 before the shelter could open. Elizabeth continued where they left off and the Foundation opened in January 2016 in Pequot Lakes, MN. Elizabeth passed away on November 13th, 2020. Donald and Elizabeth’s dream was finally realized, and Donald and Elizabeth’s surviving family and friends will continue to work hard to fulfill their mission.
