Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Quest was surrendered to the shelter on 5/9/2025 due to rental restrictions. He is 4 to 5 years old and was a very loved dog who had lived in his home his whole life. His owners were forced to relocate and couldn't find an affordable place that would accept dogs like him. Quest is a mix of boxer, Doberman, and pit bull, and he is big and strong. He has been fully vetted and microchipped. His fee of $150 is fully sponsored. Quest did live with his canine sibling in his home and was fine. They grew up together. We do think that he'd be okay with a mellow female dog of similar size. No smaller animals. He would do best in an adult only home. Teens are okay.  Shelter life has been hard on our Quest and he has lost a significant amount of weight. We've had him completely vet checked and this weight loss is due to the stress of the shelter environment. He would make a very loving and loyal companion. He needs a home! NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications must be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South. We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventatives, and spayed or neutered.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 30, 2026, 12:33 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Nanette came to us from the city pound when her legal stray hold was finished and no one had claimed her. She appears to be a pit bull/boxer mix and we think she's around 3 years old. She did have some hair loss when she arrived, which we think was due to a prior flea issue (we treated her right away), but otherwise looks good. She will be vet checked and spayed on April 2nd and her fee is $150. Nanette is a gem! She is a happy and loving girl who is fairly well mannered and appears to have had some basic training. She currently weighs around 55 pounds and is somewhat short and stocky. We do think Nanette would be okay with a well mannered male dog and kids over 5. We have no way of knowing how she would be with cats.  NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. My name is Miss Sammy. I was a sidekick for a truck driver since I was 6 weeks old. Then I could not easily get in the truck and my dad's new company said I could not ride with him any longer. The transition has been confusing to me after I made a long road trip from Ohio to MN where I met my foster family. I would bark at the door and outside. My foster mom thinks I was hoping my family would hear and find me. But I have lots of love in my heart and have opened it up to my foster family. I follow my foster Mom around like a Velcro dog. My favorite pastime is when the kids play with me. They squeak my toys and crinkle the paper inside. I get so excited when they do this. Sometimes I even bark at them to ask them to play. I have a white face but don't let that fool you. I still have bursts of energy. My foster kiddo discovered I fetch the ball one day. I love to bring it back. But when the foster dog jumped in front of me and grabbed the ball I got pretty upset. He is bigger than me so I feel like I have to let him know who is boss. It would not be a good idea to play fetch with another dog present. I growl at him through the baby gate when we eat our food so I food guard, as well. Otherwise, I am chill around him and we get along. I am 60-65lbs and I look so tiny. But I am pretty solid. I have not asked to jump on the couch, but I did whine a little to get on the bed. However, I am fine sleeping on my dog pillow next to my foster parents' bed. I fuss a little bit when put in the kennel, but then I calm down and nap. I do not pull on a leash. I do bark at other dogs. When I am riding in the car, I bark at anything that moves. My foster mom does not know if I am doing it out of anxiety from the move or if this is typical of me. But I am an all-around great dog. I am trained and my foster mom says I am easy to have around. If you have stairs in your home my foster mom wants you to know I am a little slow going up steps, but the vet did not find arthritis. He did say I need to lose 5lbs, otherwise, I am healthy. He said with my cute personality I will go fast. If you are looking for a pretrained smart, playful, but also calm companion I am the one for you. I will melt your heart with my soulful gaze, when I am trying to tell you something. And I am pretty vocal once I know you.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I’m Buddy and looking for my forever home! I’m currently couch surfing with my foster mom and 2 foster fur siblings. I’m 11 years old but don’t let my age fool you. I’m good with being a couch potato but also good with running around all silly. I’ve been with my foster family for almost a month. At first she kenneled me and I did great in there. Now I have free range of the house. My foster mom works from home and I sleep in the dog bed in her office. When she leaves you can find me and my fur siblings sleeping on the couch or being apart of the neighborhood watch. I get along with both female and male dogs. I’ve been around a few other dogs besides my foster fur siblings and everything went well. I love to snuggle up in my dog bed or blankets near others. At night I sleep in the human bed. I can get up on the couch no issues but my foster mom’s bed is high so I use dog steps. I love to run and play outside and I recently started playing with dog toys. When someone comes to visit, I bark at first but then I get excited to meet new people. My foster mom has a fenced in yard so I can roam all over. I do love taking walks and walk very nice on a leash. I’ve never had an accident in the house while living with my foster family.

I was returned after 6 years with my last home. I was not so friendly with my foster sisters when I got here. I finally got use to being around other dogs and am learning to be part of a pack.

I like to eat by myself and I may take all day to eat my food. I'm a lovey dove and love to be loved on. I try to be bossy and need reminding that I don't have to be bossy.

Story
Name: Pudgy Boots Age: 4 years Gender: Male Breed: Boxer/Bulldog mix Weight: 50 lbs Dog Friendly: Yes Cat Friendly: Yes — dog-savvy cats please Child Friendly: Yes House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Energy Level: Low to Moderate Temperament: Loving, affectionate Requirements: Not rental appropriate  Adoption Fee: $375 + tax To adopt, go to:  www.mendingspirits.org/apply-to-adopt.html From the Foster Family: From the moment Pudgy Boots arrived, he fit right in. He has a calm, gentle presence and truly loves being near his people — whether that’s relaxing on the couch, following you around the house, or heading out for a car ride. Pudgy is affectionate, easygoing, and so sweet. He leans into pets, enjoys cuddles, and has the kind of loving personality that makes him an instant favorite. He’s doing great in a home setting and continues to show what a wonderful companion he’ll be. Pudgy Boots is going to make an amazing addition to a lucky family, and we can’t wait to see him find the forever home he deserves.  About Me: No seriously… talk to me and watch my whole butt get involved. I traveled all the way from Alabama to Minnesota after a pretty rough start in life, and now I’m ready for the good stuff — love, snacks, snuggles, and car rides (SHOTGUN ONLY, please). I’m a bulldog/boxer mix with an elite underbite and a big, squishy heart. I’m a mellow dude who absolutely adores human attention. Couch cuddles? Yes. Being near my people? Always. Going into the crate? Not my favorite but I still rock it. Car ride? ABSOLUTELY!! Cats are very interesting to me — I want to play and be friends, but sometimes I forget I’m bigger than they are, so I might need a little help learning my manners. I promise my intentions are pure. With his adorable underbite, gentle nature, and affectionate personality, Pudgy Boots is the kind of dog who quickly steals hearts. He’s ready for a home where he can soak up love, enjoy adventures, and keep those happy wiggles coming.     March 29, 2026, 9:35 pm

Story
Dillon was found running down Margaretha with a leash still attached, but nobody came for him. He is a beautiful brindle boy with lots of muscle and a big beautiful head. Dillon should be an only animal. Older kids with dog experience would be ok. He is a happy sweet boy. He prefers women and is nervous around men and loud noises. A gal with a quiet home would be Dillon's choice for his next human. He loves car rides and loves to snuggle. All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped. All of this is included in their adoption fee. Fill out an application to adopt at freeborncountyhs.org When transitioning your new pet home please allow for at least 4-6 weeks for your pet to adjust to their new home. They will need this time to decompress, and adjust to a new routine and environment. During that time we will provide check ins and counseling to ensure a successful transition. Please review all basic adoption requirements listed on our website before applying. We take finding the right homes for the animals in our care very seriously. They deserve nothing but the best! Please allow 2-7 days for applications to be processed. If an animal is listed in foster care, these pets are not at our facility, but are in foster care homes. They are still available for adoption, and meet and greets are done with pre-approved applicants only. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email at freeborncohumanesociety@gmail.com, send us a message on Facebook, or call or text 507-377-8501.
