Story

Hi, I’m Johnny – I may look like a Lab-Boxer mix, but in my heart, I’m 100% lap dog – just ask anyone who’s ever sat down near me. I’m 3 years old and my interests include giving cuddles and staring into your soul until you give me treats (it works every time). I was found wandering the streets of Hastings and have been hanging out at the shelter waiting for my forever family. So…got a couch? Got snacks? Let’s meet, you sound perfect!Meet Johnny – Your future snack connoisseur and aspiring lap dog. He is the cuddle champion with the most soulful eyes you’ve ever seen. Fun-sized floof missile (okay, medium-large, but don’t tell him that). A certified snuggle expert who thinks “personal space” is a suggestion…and not a very good one. This goofy boy lives for belly rubs and couch cuddles. He’s got enough love to warm your whole house – and then some. Now, full disclosure, Johnny has a habit of taste-testing things he probably shouldn’t…particularly tissues. But hey, he’s just helping you become a tidier person! He can not go to a home with chidlren. He walks great on leash, but let’s be real – his true passion is lounging like royalty by your side. A walk is just the warm-up for his main event: couch cuddles and snack sessions.Are you are looking for an affection dispenser on four legs? A world-class snack enthusiast who will never judge you on your snack choices – yours, his, mystery crumbs on the floor? Then Johnny is your guy. He’s waiting to steal your heart and maybe your spot on the couch.

Story

Update 7.8.26 Hello MNBR Fans, my name is Zarek pronounced like Derek with a Z. I am fairly new to rescue. I have a foster brother and would love a home with a furry friend or a family who would take me to the dog park or doggy daycare because I have lots of energy. I am pretty good on a leash so I might make an awesome running/walking/hiking partner. My foster mom says it is like having a toddler in the house, as I am still learning what I can and cannot have, but I am a quick learner. I love to play tug-a-war and think everything is a tug toy. I also like playing fetch and know the release word is “mine.” I have a passion for water and would not mind a waterfront view!! I like helping out and supervising home renovation projects. I know how to work a hammer or at least I like to think that I do. Can’t wait to introduce myself to you!

COMING SOON: I'm a sweet Boxer with a big heart and a love for being close to my people. I’m deaf, but I don’t let that slow me down! I like to stay right by your side, whether we’re relaxing or out for a walk. Personal space? I’m not really familiar with it! I’m also a big fan of treats and will happily accept them whenever you’re offering. I'm allergic to turkey, chicken and peanut butter. My best buddy, Ernie, and I are very close, and we’re looking for a home where we can stay together. I lean on my brother, Ernie, for confidence and guidance. He's my ears as I'm deaf. We’re a loving pair who would be happiest sharing life with a family who has room for both of us.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 20, 2026, 3:43 pm

Story

2.12.26 PUPDATE (written by current foster) Millie is a 6 1/2 year old boxer lab mix with a full tail. She came from a family life and had lived indoors. She likes attention and neck scratches. She may have a torn ACL on her back right leg but has been using it a little with pain medication in place. She has a sweet personality and could be a great only dog. With our boxer, Ester, she likes following Ester’s lead but needed a couple of gentle reminders of her place in the pack. She does well with the commands sit and come when food is involved. . We have tried out a couple of different leashes on her and she stays close on yard walks. We haven’t tried any actual walks around the block due to her leg. She will need rehab for her leg withborc without surgery. We're waiting to hear back fromthe surgeon on her options. INTAKE 1.26.26 (written by previous owner) This is Miss Millie. A 6 1/2 year old Boxer, Lab mixed breed that was born on June 5, 2019. She is a very shy girl who takes a couple of visits to warm up to new people in places but she is super sweet and loves attention. She has always done well with other animals and children. Millie is not aggressive but tends to get very excited and a little jealous, letting you know vocally by crying and whining that she sees others getting the attention that she wants. She is also a bit protective over her food dish. Overall, Millie is a very good girl who just needs some extra love and care due to an injury of a major tendon in her back leg. She had always lived in a home with a fenced in yard so had not had much exposure to being on a leash or outside of her own territory, making her leash skills and listening to command skills not very good but she is super smart so could learn these skills easily. We just hope Millie finds the right home that can take care of her like she deserves.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 20, 2026, 3:43 pm

Story

COMING SOON TO RESCUE: Primrose says this about her...... How can I Summarize Primrose in such a small space? There are so many things to say because she is just the best girl! Let me start at the beginning and you can get to know her through my eyes and heart. Prim came from not the best situation with a breeder. She never learned to be a dog or to feel love. When she came to us she was absolutely terrified of the entire world around her including us. To the point she had to be picked up and carried outside. , She quickly grew to trust myself(Mom) and my 10 year old daughter but it took several months for her to even acknowledge the adult male in the household without complete fear and wanting to run and hide. Because of her previous home life and myself being in a wheelchair she is not housebroken. Given the time though she will get it and will be someone's or some families bestie! About 9 months later you would almost not know she came to us that way! Prim is all about her people and if they are doing it that's what she wants to be doing also! She has more of a couch potato personality but does have her moments where she loves to play. Especially when we come home she gets excited and likes when you stomp your feet and she will pounce down and zoom around. She is hilarious when you give her cherry tomatoes ( if she can get close enough to the vine she will steal them ) she plays with them like a ball before she eats them. She LOVES children and her favorite thing to do is pick up 'her girl' from school and see all the kids. If you sit facing her on a bed or couch and ask her for 'huggies' she will let you hug on her and put her chin on your shoulder. Rub her ears while she's there and she might just stay there forever. Primmy is very quiet and you won't hear her make noise or bark unless she thinks she's alone or she's playing. She likes to dance and hug around your waist if her mood is right. She has the biggest underbite and her top lip gets tucked sometimes and she just looks at you with her 'teef' lol. She is used to being put in outfits and doesn't really make a fuss about them and she looks pretty great in tutus! I could probably go on forever about all her great things and little quirks but the bottom line is if someone has the patience to help her with potty training she is going to be the most loving and loyal best friend to the luckiest person!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 20, 2026, 3:43 pm

Story

Hey! I’m Cody, a six-year-old Frenchie with a whole lot of opinions and a whole lot of love. I lived with one family my entire life, but as more kids arrived, things got a little too busy for me, and I’m the kind of guy who really likes having my people’s attention.Let’s get this out of the way: I enjoy being in charge. I’m funny, stubborn, and full of character, and I need someone who appreciates a dog with a big personality. If you’re confident, experienced, and enjoy a dog who keeps you laughing, we’ll get along great.I’m looking for a home without children. I haven’t lived with other animals before, and when I meet dogs, I can get a little too interested. With patience and slow introductions, I might learn to coexist with another dog someday, but I’d prefer to start out as your only pet while we figure things out.If you’re ready for a loyal, expressive, endlessly entertaining companion, I’m ready to pack my toys and move in.

Story

** Can only be seen by appointment: 651-772-8983 **Hi, I’m Gus – a 7-year-old handsome American Bulldog mix with movie star looks and a heart that’s still learning to trust. I tend to keep my circle small until I know you’re the real deal. Earn my trust (and bring treats and a Chuckit ball), and you’ll see I’m all in.Meet Gus – Our drop-dead gorgeous ball enthusiast. He was picked up by St. Paul Animal Control, and his owner was never found. Let’s be real, Gus isn’t a “jump-into-your-arms” kind of guy. He’s more of a slow but steady trust building kind of guy. But give him time, some patience, and a ball (yeah, it’s kind of a big deal), and you’ll unlock a whole new level of loyal. Gus isn’t a starter dog – he’s more of a “hidden gem” seasoned dog owner type dog. But once you’re in his circle of trust, you’re in for life. You’ll get tail wags, silly antics, and unmatched joy of earning the trust of a dog who really needs his person. Gus loves to go on walks but just don’t expect a calm stroll in the park – Gus walks like he’s late for a very important meeting. He’s got places to be and smells to sniff. Loyal, goofy, and a little extra – he is a special boy with a big personality. Gus would thrive in a home that understands that love takes time, but once he’s in, he’s all in. Bonus points if you have a strong leash hand and an endless supply of Chuckit balls! If you are into loyalty and laughs, with a “work-in-progress” dog, who’ll love you almost as much as his ball? Then look no further. He’s special - He knows it. We know it. And soon you will too. Gus is waiting – ball in mouth, heart on sleeve.
