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 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.July 11, 2026, 8:08 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Ares arrived on 6/17/2025 as a transfer from one of our rescue friends. He's a big, handsome, stocky dude with a large capacity to have fun. He's around 6 years old and appears to be a shepherd mix of some type. There could be quite a few breeds in there. He has been fully vetted and his fee is $125. Ares is a large, strong guy who would prefer to be the only pet in the home. He's is pretty well mannered. He would love to be with someone who can give him the good exercise he needs. He's also pretty content to chill out on a couch with someone after playtime. He loves to play and is a big fan of playing tug with a strong rope toy. He's also very neat and keeps his kennel spotless. He's fairly easy going and doesn't demand a lot.   NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved.

Story
Meet Toby! Toby is a charming Boxer mix (our best guess!) who came to us from the southern U.S. with a shy and timid nature. At about 3, he’s learning to embrace his new surroundings with curiosity and a gentle heart. While it takes Toby some time to warm up, once he gains your trust, he’s a loyal and friendly companion. Toby isn’t one for big adventures, but he loves simple joys like chewing on bones and enjoying tasty treats. He would thrive in a calm, patient home where he can continue building his confidence at his own pace. If you’re looking for a sweet, low-key pup to share your life with, Toby might be the perfect match!

Story
Hey there, I'm Bruno! I'm a brindle Boxer-Terrier mix with a stunning coat and endless energy to match born in October 2025. Already neutered and ready to go, I'm an affectionate and playful pup who loves making new friends — I'm loyal, friendly, and always up for an adventure! Come meet me and let's see if we're a perfect match for each other! 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.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.​Meet Daniela: Future Boss of the House! ​ ​About Daniela ​Daniela is the perfect mix of small size, big heart, and a massive personality. She is charming, sassy, and full of pure wiggle-butt enthusiasm! Daniela is happy and safe in her foster home, but she would honestly prefer not to have to compete the resident dogs for attention anymore. ​Personality & Quirks ​Daniela's presence fills the entire room—and she will absolutely bully you into giving her the attention she deserves! She has an endless supply of love and antics to share, along with a relentless dedication to making sure you don't forget about her. ​The Wiggle-Butt Welcome: Expect a full-body wag every time you walk through the door, or really anytime Daniela hasn't seen you for longer than 10 seconds. Her enthusiasm for her humans is absolutely unmatched! ​Snack Time Focus: When it's snack time, Daniela gives her full attention to a good chew toy or a peanut butter Kong. ​The Sweet Snoozer: Once she has had enough activity and attention, she will snooze and snore anywhere that is cozy. She will gladly go into her kennel, as long as it is comfy and comes with a treat. ​ Training & Home Manners ​Daniela has been working hard on her manners in her foster home. She thrives on routine, positive reinforcement, and structure (mostly to remind her that you actually own the house). Accidents in the house have never been an issue—Daniela is far too much of a Queen to violate that particular code. ​ The Ideal Home ​Daniela would do wonderfully in a home that wants a dog with a big personality to be the absolute center of their world. She’s looking for a family that will continue to guide her with love, keep her active, and doesn't mind being affectionately bullied into on-demand playing and petting. ​Are you ready to welcome this sassy and hilariously demanding girl into your life?Click here to watch a video of Daniela.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 9, 2026, 10:37 pm

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.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Rocky came to the shelter from the city pound in September 2025 when his time was up and no one had claimed him. We do know a little about his history and know that he's over a year old and Rocky is his real name. He's a little shy at first but warms up quickly and is loving and playful. He has been vet checked, neutered, and microchipped and his fee is $150.  Rocky is a young dog who has had a little basic training. He needs a home that can provide him with the exercise he requires. He did live with kids in his previous home. We do think he could do okay with a female dog with proper intros. We have no way of knowing about cats. He really is a honey!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Maura arrived at the shelter from the city pound on 6/5/2026, when her stray hold was finished and no one had claimed her. She is a pit bull type mix with a pretty brindle coat, but we're not sure what else could be in her breed mix. She is fully grown and on the smaller side at only around a year old. She has been vet checked, spayed, and microchipped, and her fee is $150. Maura is a very shy girl who needs someone willing and able to nurture her and help her blossom. When she's comfortable with someone, she is very playful and loving. She will need some basic training as she still has quite a bit of puppy behavior in her. We do think she'd be okay with other dogs and kids. She's young enough, too, to learn to behave around cats. She is truly one of the sweetest dogs ever and would thrive as someone's companion!

She is short, stocky, and approximately 4 years old.

She really would love a home in which she is not left alone for long hours. She has done okay with some well mannered male dogs. She does bond very closely to her people, and she will regular regular exercise. She is strong and active and loves to have space to romp and play. She would do best in a home without cats. Kids over 10 should be okay. NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved.
