Story
Location: Mankato, MN Lasso is a shy dog that has so much potential. He’s incredibly sweet, loves to be pet. He’s very anxious and does WAY better with other dogs in the house, to build his confidence. His current foster home has children (4 & 7 years old), but he would probably appreciate a quieter home with older kids. He doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body, but the loud sudden noises make him hide in his crate. He comes out of his shell more once the kiddos are in school 😅 His ideal home would have other dogs, and a family with patience to celebrate all his little milestones. He’s such a sweet dog that just wants to feel safe. --------------- The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org). Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs over 9 months), FIV/FeLV test (cats - one in the litter), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration). Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are best guess.

Story
First, his looks catch your eye. Then you learn about his personality and you’re hooked! Blaze is a 54#, 5-year-old Border Collie with a sunny personality and a zest for life that's as bright as a perfect summer day. He thinks every day should include a game of fetch or frisbee and plenty of time spent with his favorite people. Happy-go-lucky, affectionate, and adventurous, Blaze loves being part of the action, whether that's a morning walk, a trip to the park, or a backyard barbecue. His energy level is a wonderful balance: he's always ready for fun and activity, and he's equally happy to relax and enjoy downtime with his family afterward. Blaze would thrive with an active, herding breed-experienced family that appreciates both his intelligence and enthusiasm. He walks beautifully on leash without pulling and is well-socialized in the world. He's crate trained and keeps four on the floor. He knows a few basic obedience commands and wants to learn more. With his smarts, a little time and some good treats, and we bet he can learn anything! A fenced yard would be ideal for Blaze so he has room to stretch his legs and enjoy his favorite games. He can happily live as an only dog or with a canine companion. He is a herding dog, which includes nipping at ankles if given the opportunity. Families with older kids are the best fit – no littles, please. He likes to check cats out, but is not aggressive. He could live with dog-savvy felines. Blaze will be an even happier boy when he loses roughly 7-8 lbs. If you're looking for a loyal adventure buddy who will happily join you for all of life's summer fun, and then curl up nearby when the day is done, Blaze may be your perfect match! APPLY to adopt him at hoabcr.org/how-to-adopt Blaze is being fostered in Clear Lake, MN. His adoption fee is $450 + MN sales tax. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. Upon adoption, all of our dogs go to their new homes with a collar and harness, leash, starter food, blanket, favorite toys & treats. They are current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. As a foster-based rescue, we do not have a central facility to visit. Meet and greets with specific dogs are arranged once your adoption application (not an inquiry through Petfinder) has been received, processed, and approved. We are located in Minnesota and adopt to an area 400 miles from Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Story
Lock is an 8-month-old black-and-white Border Collie/Lab mix with a big heart, a curious mind, and endless enthusiasm for life. He’s at that wonderful age where every day is an adventure—and he’d love nothing more than to bring his people along for the ride. This handsome young guy is full of playful energy and excitement. Meeting people is one of his favorite things, and sometimes his happiness comes out in the form of enthusiastic puppy greetings (he’s still working on remembering that four paws belong on the floor!). The good news? Lock settles beautifully once he’s had a little one-on-one time and is already making great progress learning polite manners. Lock is smart and eager to learn. He’s doing exceptionally well with recall, crate training, leash walking, baths, and car rides—pretty impressive for a pup his age! Potty training is still a work in progress, but he’s making strides and with consistency and routine, he’s expected to catch on quickly. Adventure is Lock’s love language. He’s always ready to go wherever you are going, whether that’s a walk, a drive, backyard exploration, or a day outside. He enjoys staying active and curious but isn’t the type to wander off—he likes checking in and staying close to his people while he explores. At home, Lock is affectionate and loves giving kisses and soaking up pets. Once he’s had enough exercise and mental stimulation, he’s happy to settle down and relax nearby. Lock has also done well sharing space with other animals. He lives happily with his sibling and has handled introductions to cats and dogs nicely. He may notice movement and show a little curiosity, but he’s shown no strong prey drive—he mostly just wants to see what everyone is up to. One of Lock’s cutest quirks is his signature head tilt that makes it seem like he’s carefully considering every word you say. Add in his love of chasing his brother around the yard, leaping off little obstacles, and attempting to catch butterflies, and you’ve got a dog who turns ordinary moments into entertainment. Lock is the kind of puppy who’s looking for a family excited to keep teaching, exploring, and making memories together. Smart, affectionate, adventurous, and endlessly lovable—he’s ready to be your perfect sidekick. ❤️🐾 ---- *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue.

Story
Hi, I’m Barrel! If you're looking for a loyal sidekick, professional snuggler, and full-time shadow, I might be your perfect match. My favorite place to be is wherever my humans are, and I’m happiest when I’m included in the action, whether that’s relaxing on the couch, going for a walk, hanging out in the yard, or just following you from room to room. Like many puppies, I can be a little shy when meeting new people or exploring unfamiliar places, but I’m learning that this big world has lots of fun things to offer. Having confident foster dog siblings has helped me come out of my shell, and I look to them for guidance when I’m unsure. I’m a smart boy who loves treats, which makes training a lot of fun. I’m already doing great with potty training and am continuing to work on kennel training. I also walk nicely on a leash and don’t do much pulling. In my foster home, I live peacefully with cats and mostly prefer to let them do their own thing. When playtime is over, I’m more than happy to help keep your lap warm, shower you with puppy kisses, and remind you what it feels like to have a best friend by your side. As a Border Collie mix, I’ll thrive with regular exercise, mental enrichment, and opportunities to learn new things. With my affectionate nature, eagerness to please, and growing confidence, I’m ready to find a family to call my own. Could that be you? ---- *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.*

Story
**Colt is available through TCHS' Adoption Ambassador Program and is not at the shelter! Call 320-252-0896 to arrange a meet-and-greet** Meet Colt! Colt is a high-energy dog who would love a very active home - a job would be even better! We think he would make a perfect addition to some farms because he likes to stay busy. However, he is staying in an apartment right now, and his foster reports he is doing very well! "He is really calm when I work from home and doesn’t bother me. He doesn’t get into anything, and he is 100 percent potty trained." Colt also has learned not to pull on his leash. "It took him like a day to learn how to loose leash walk. I take him on runs, and he knows how to match my pace." Colt is a fast learner and already knows sit, down, and crate. Colt loves fetch and tug-of-war, but he's equally happy to snuggle in someone's lap. He is a super sweet dog, with two catches - he does not like being around small children OR cats. His foster reports that he barks when he sees kids. He is very friendly with new people although he does bark a bit at first. *Adoption Ambassador (AA) animals are available for adoption but reside in a TCHS foster home instead of in the shelter. Meet-and-greets are scheduled in a first-come, first-served manner. Adoption holds are NOT accepted on AA animals unless the potential adopter has already met the animal. If you are interested in meeting this AA pet, meet-and-greets may be scheduled by calling 320-252-0896. *Adoption holds may be placed on available animals in person or by calling (320) 252-0896. An adoption hold reserves available animals for one day after the animal is ready to be adopted. More than one adoption hold may be placed on an available animal and will be honored in the order they were received. Adoption holds are $25 plus tax, are non-refundable, non-transferable and not applied toward the adoption fee. **Minnesota sales tax and an administrative fee ($20 for cats/dogs and $10 for small animals) will be applied to all adoptions. Donations and adoption fees help cover the cost of spay/neuter surgeries, microchipping, vaccinating, deworming, any medical procedures, and general care of all shelter animals.

Meet Dai Mar – The Gentle Gentleman with a Playful Spark! Age: 12 years (13 in August) | Breed: Australian Shepherd/Cattle Dog Mix Weight:    66 lbs | Adoption Fee: $375 | Neutered: Yes Don’t let his age fool you— Dai Mar may be a senior in years, but he still has the heart (and play drive!) of a much younger pup. This sweet, easygoing guy loves squeaky toys, a good game of tug-of-war, and—most of all—being near his people. He’s the kind of companion who’ll be by your side through thick and thin, offering loyalty, love, and the occasional goofy grin. Dai Mar is friendly with everyone he meets, including other dogs, cats, and respectful kiddos. He’s potty trained with a regular routine but does have an occasional accident, hasn’t needed to be crated, preferring to spend his time near the people he loves. While he's mostly agile, he occasionally needs a little help going up and down steps—but he’s still active and enjoys moving around. He is a vocal guy when it comes to unexpected noises, so a quiet, calm home would suit him best. If you’re looking for a gentle, devoted friend with a golden heart and a playful streak, Dai Mar might be the perfect match for you. He’s ready to bring joy, love, and companionship into a home that will treasure him as much as he’ll treasure you. Ready to meet Dai Mar? Apply today and give this sweet senior the cozy, love-filled home he deserves. A s a rescue, we provide the care, procedures and testing that is available to us. Adopters will be responsible for continued preventatives, follow-up appointments, and medications (if applicable). At times, adopters will be responsible for procedures not completed in rescue (dentals, bloodwork, etc.)  Your new dog will receive their rabies and distemper vaccine.  $50 discount for seniors (65+) and veterans. Adoption fees help pay for the dog's veterinary exam, vaccinations (rabies and distemper) HW test and spay/neuter if needed and additional health needs specific to each animal.   Grey Face Rescue does not adopt outside of Minnesota for now. We apologize for the inconvenience.  We do not adopt animals to families whose current pets are not up-to-date on vaccinations or not altered. Exceptions may be made for medical reasons as stated by a veterinarian and we will require proof of that recommendation. Thank you for understanding our mission to reduce overpopulation.  Once you submit your application, our adoption manager will be in touch, so please check your spam folder if you do not see something from us within 7-10 days.  Thank you again for your interest in a Grey Face senior. We appreciate your support!     October 11, 2025, 9:59 pm
