My story

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

This handsome 3-year-old pittie mix has come such a long way. When Todd first arrived, he was thin, scared, and clearly hadn’t had an easy life. With good food, gentle care, and patience, he’s finally filling out and showing his true personality.

Todd is affectionate with the people he knows and trusts — he adores the staff who have helped him heal — but he’s cautious with new faces and needs time to feel safe. Because he’s protective of his food, toys, and people, he’ll need an experienced, adult-only home that understands resource guarding and can continue helping him build confidence at his own pace.

Todd is not cat-friendly, but he does well around other dogs and enjoys their company once he’s comfortable.

Once you earn Todd’s trust, you’ll find a loyal, goofy friend who just wants to be loved and understood.

Call 218-675-7297 for more info. Paws & Claws Rescue & Resort is open Mon-Fri 8am-4pm and weekends by appointment only.

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!
