My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Lightning Bug! This precious brindle baby is searching for a family willing to work on building her confidence and social skills. Bug was surrendered to us at the end of August. She`s gotten used to the shelter environment and routine, however can still be a bit nervous in new situations. Despite being shut down and unsure when she arrived, she was tolerant of all handling and cares done by our intake staff. She has not been introduced to cats yet - she briefly met the office cat with no negative reaction. She is pretty indifferent around other dogs - she`s polite towards them, but hasn`t shown a huge interest in play. We think she would do well in a home with another dog that matches her soft energy. If you think Bug may be a good fit for you, please give the shelter a call at 218-675-7297.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Paws and Claws Rescue & Resort is open to the public Mon-Fri from 9am-4pm. We do require you to have an appointment set up for weekend meet and greets and adoption. Please call 218-675-7297 for more information.

If you see an available pet that you fall in love with, but you are unable to come in right away to meet them, please call us for more information about the pet. If they sound like the perfect animal to complete your family, you can place an adoption hold. This non-refundable hold of $25 will apply towards your adoption fee. If you are serious about adopting a pet, this hold will ensure that no one else will be able to come in and adopt it before you have the chance. Adoption holds are good up to 2 business days after all the necessary medical and behavior tasks have been completed for the pet. Call 218-675-7297 if you see an animal that peaks your interest!
