Story
Meet Luke and Stephan (pronounced Stef-on)!These two adorable pups came to PCHS from a valued rescue partner. They were part of an unwanted liter and made their way to rescue when they were about 11 weeks old. They have spent several months in shelter, patiently, waiting for a new family to come and choose them. But after weeks of waiting, waiting, and some more waiting, no one has picked either of these boys. In hopes of reaching a bigger audience, these two boys then made their way to PCHS where they are hopeful their luck will change!Luke and Stephan are about 4 months old now, completely vetted, and ready to find their forever families! Their mom was said to be an Olde English Bulldog mix and their dad was a Border Collie mix. Both pups are energetic, friendly, and enjoy getting attention. Like all puppies, they would benefit from puppy obedience training and continued socialization. These boys are playful and would likely enjoy a canine companion in their new home.With spring and summer just around the corner, these two boys would make for excellent walking and adventure buddies! If you think one of these boys is the fit for you, apply online today!Adoption fee is $400 + $30 microchip fee + tax

Story
Rambo is a deeply loyal, sensitive boy who forms strong bonds with his people. Once he feels safe, he is affectionate, attentive, and happiest staying close to those he trusts. He thrives in a calm, predictable environment and does best with patient adopters who understand that trust takes time. Rambo experiences significant anxiety in new situations and around unfamiliar people, so he needs a quiet home willing to let him decompress at his own pace. In his current home, he lives with children and does well with them, but because he can be cautious, older, respectful kids or an adult-only household may be ideal. He gets along well with his canine companion, Rosie. His behavior with unfamiliar dogs is unknown, so slow introductions would be important. For right person, he will be an incredibly devoted, loving companion. He just needs someone willing to see past his fear and offer him patience, structure, and a safe place. No adoption fee.

Story
***Blue and Elvis is BONDED and they NEED to be adopted together!***Meet Blue and Elvis!These two boys came to PCHS from an impound when they were surrendered to an impound when their owner could no longer care for them. The love these two boys have for each other is remarkable. They love to be together and need to be adopted to the same home to keep them happy and healthy. These two are little confused being in shelter as they have lived in the same home together since they were pups. Since they have lived in a home, these two are fully potty trained and appear to be crate trained. They have not been cat tested but seem like they would do okay with other dogs and kids. Blue, who is thought to be some sort of lab mix, is about 5 years old. He has the most striking blue eyes and an inquisitive nature! He absolutely loves his snackies and will do anything for a treat. He seems to know some basic commands like `sit` and `shake`. Elvis, who appears to be an Aussie mix, seems to be a little bit older than Blue and is around 6 years old. Elvis has a more calm demeanor about him. He is also food motivated but he takes his snacks a little more gingerly than his brother. Elvis likes to be close to people and enjoys cuddling right up next to you, or better yet, in your lap!Both these boys are completely vetted and ready to start looking for their new forever home. This sweet pair is hoping their stay with us can be short! If you think your home could be a good match for these two, apply online today! Adoption applications can be found on the homepage of our online website. Adoption fee for the pair is $300 + $30 microchip fee (each) + tax

Story
Meet Felicity!Felicity is a bundle of wiggles, joy, and pure sunshine! This young Aussie mix was found out on her own, but you’d never guess it from her happy, tail-wagging spirit. She’s resilient, full of life, and ready to start her next adventure with a forever family.True to her breed mix, Felicity is smart, energetic, and always on the move. She’s got that fun, bouncy personality that keeps you smiling—whether she’s zooming around the yard, tossing a toy in the air, or wiggling her whole body when she’s excited to see you. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious!At a perfect medium size (about 31 pounds), Felicity is big enough to keep up on hikes and adventures but compact enough to fit right into your home (and probably your lap, if she has her way). Beneath all that playful energy is an incredibly sweet girl who loves attention and thrives on connection.Felicity is looking for an active home ready to match her zest for life and help her continue learning and growing. She may even enjoy having a canine companion to wrestle with in her forever home! With a little guidance and lots of love, this wiggly sweetheart will be the most fun and loyal sidekick you could ask for. If you think she is the one for you, apply online today! Adoption applications can be found on the homepage of our online website. ***Cannot go to a home with cats***Adoption fee is $400 + 430 microchip fee + tax

Story
I have a 5 year old (as of Nov 2025) Australian Shepherd female dog. She was given to me for Christmas as a puppy when she was 10 weeks old (they bought her from a farm in Iowa for $600) but I have a difficult time finding care for her each month that I have drill for the National Guard and it has unfortunately been quite a burden on my life. I believe she’s ok with other animals as she has been at my sisters who has a dog and cat. Her dog and my dog get along well. She has had pet health insurance so she is all up to date on all vaccines and she is healthy and great weight. She would do great in a active setting. She knows basic commands such as sit, lay down, stay, shake. Please reach out if you are interested. I will be cautious in selection to make sure she well cared for. Her kennel, toys, treats, extra food will all be included! I also had her DNA; she’s 90% Australian shepherded and 10% miniature Aussie. Location: Rochester, MN $100– willing to negotiate:) Thank you!❤️❤️❤️
