Story
Handsome is a PERFECTLY named sweet guy who is already winning hearts everywhere he goes. He is gentle, friendly, adorable, good with everyone, total package! This intelligent boy is eager to please and enjoys learning new things. He’s already potty trained and continuing to work on his puppy manners as he grows. Like many young pups, Handsome can be a little clumsy at times—but that just adds to his charm! Handsome loves toys, enjoys playtime, and is just as happy curling up as a lap companion when it’s time to relax. He has an even-tempered, gentle personality that makes him a joy to be around. He will grow into a large dog when he is fully grown, so his future family should be ready for a big best friend. With continued training, structure, and plenty of love, Handsome is sure to grow into an incredible lifelong companion. If you’re looking for just the bestest boy you’ve ever met, Handsome might be the perfect match. Handsome Halley is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 3/21/2026 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 9am and noon. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. ---- *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue.

Story
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

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. //   Find our applications at www.midwestanimalrescue.orgAdoption Fee $250 plus taxMeet Finn Finn is an 8-year-old, 50-lb mellow guy who loves napping, short walks, and hanging out near his people. He enjoys toys (especially if treats are involved!), can be cuddly, and also appreciates his personal space. Finn is anxious around loud noises and reactive when he sees other dogs, so he’s looking for a quiet home where he can be the only pet. He hasn’t lived with cats but has ignored chickens. He greets people calmly outside the home and politely “announces” visitors with a bark. He does best with a predictable routine and would thrive in a home where someone is around more often—Respectful children are fine. Finn is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and eats a prescription urinary diet. If you’re looking for a loyal, laid-back companion, Finn is ready to meet you.      Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  or    When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.  Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS.  We do not transport to potential adopters. How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance.  Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance. Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history. //

Hi, my name is Beanie and I'm from Minnesota. From her foster: This little girl is smart. She comes to her name, has conquered pee pads with very few accidents(her aim can be a little off sometimes). Has figured out how to hide from her bigger sister when she doesn’t want to play. Very sweet, she loves to give kisses and is always excited to see you. She’s calm and happy to meet new people and pups. She wants to be close even sleeping on your feet. Watching her grow and learn will be such fun for her forever family.

Story
Hi, my name is Yoyo and I'm from Minnesota. From her foster: Yo-yo is a young puppy that is enjoying the good life in foster and can’t wait to join your crew. Amazingly she heads right to the puppy pads to piddle and ALMOST makes it there with number two! She loves to snuggle with humans and happily joins her siblings in a cuddle puddle most of the day. She is starting to discover her voice and makes darling little pig noises and baby growls with her siblings. Social attachments are starting and she definitely knows that humans are good… and equal food.

These pups are in Princeton, Minnesota too!

Story
Hi there! I'm Rex, and I'm currently scouting for a new permanent teammate. My previous owner passed away, so I'm looking for a fresh start with a family that appreciates a professional-grade snuggler. A Little About Me: -The Social Director: I've had a dog sibling by my side almost my whole life. I'm a huge fan of other dogs - having a buddy around makes my tail wag twice as fast. -Ball is Life: If you have a ball, we are best friends. I will fetch until the sun goes down (and then maybe a few more times in the dark). -Kitchen Supervisor: I take my job seriously. If you're in the kitchen, I am sitting right next to you. You know, just in case you need me to taste-test some falling bacon. -The "Bedtime Snack" Enthusiast: My favorite part of the day? The pre-bedtime treat. It's a non-negotiable part of my evening bedtime routine. My "Work in Progress" List: -I like to bark at passing cars. I'm just making sure they know the speed limit! -The crate: not a fan. I'd much rather be out where the action (and the snacks) are. -I'm a total gentleman on walks! As for kids? I haven't met many yet, so I'm still deciding if they're as cool as dogs. I'm a sweet loyal boy who just wants to be part of the "pack" again. Could your kitchen floor be my new favorite spot?

Story
Hi, I’m Max! 🐾 I’m a playful, devoted, slightly quirky guy with a big heart and an even bigger love for my people. This past year has been a lot for me—my owner passed away last summer and I’ve had a couple big life changes since then. I’m the kind of dog who really likes routine, so I’m hoping my next home is one where things feel steady and safe. Once I settle in, I promise I’ll be the most loyal sidekick you could ask for. A trainer once described me in the funniest (and most accurate) way: I think I’m the lifeguard at the pool… but I don’t know how to swim. Basically, I sometimes feel like it’s my job to keep an eye on things and make sure everyone is okay. When new people show up or we meet someone on a walk, I just need my person to reassure me that everything’s under control. I’m a sensitive soul like that. At home, I’m happiest just being near my people. I don’t always need to cuddle—I just like hanging out in the same room, supervising life. That said, I do have some very strong opinions about personal space… mainly that your space is also my space if I decide it’s time for pets. 😄 I LOVE to play! Fetch and tug are my absolute favorites, and sometimes I try to play both games at the same time (I’m an innovator). Chewy bones, toys, and a good game are the fastest way to my heart. Another great way to win me over? Play with me! I’m all in. When you come home, get ready for the most enthusiastic greeting you’ve ever seen. I take my welcoming duties very seriously. I’ll also happily patrol the yard for squirrels, follow you around the house to keep track of you, and occasionally steal a tissue if you leave one unattended. Finder’s keepers. I can be a little slow to warm up to new people, but once I decide you’re one of my favorites, I’m incredibly affectionate and devoted. In the evenings, when I’m sleepy, I may give you a very dramatic side-eye if you disturb my beauty rest—but that’s just part of my charm. I do have some dog friends, but meeting new dogs can be unpredictable for me, and I appreciate people who let me take introductions at my own pace. I also bark when someone new comes to the house—just making sure the situation is under control! (Treats help me realize everything is okay.) What I’m really looking for is a patient, loving home that understands sensitive dogs and will help me feel secure again. In return, you’ll get a goofy, loving, loyal companion who will always keep track of you, play with you, and greet you like you’re the best thing that’s ever happened. Basically… I’m your lifeguard. Even if I’m still learning how to swim. 🐶💛

Story
Goliath is one of the most striking dogs we’ve ever met in person. His shiny coat, unique coloring, and those two mesmerizing blue eyes make him an absolute showstopper—and he gets nonstop compliments wherever he goes. But Goliath isn’t just a pretty face; he genuinely lives to be a good boy, please his humans, and do the right thing. He’s incredibly intelligent, highly tuned into people’s emotions and intentions, and picks up on routines and training remarkably quickly. With his smarts come both advantages and challenges: he is extremely trainable and eager to please, but he can also be a bit high-strung compared to other dogs his age. He has no naughty bone in his body, but without proper outlets for his energy and brainpower, he can become restless, showing behaviors like excessive licking, scratching, or whining. With consistent exercise, outdoor time, and a structured routine with clear boundaries, Goliath absolutely thrives. He doesn’t require any special medications or kenneling, and his previous nervous behaviors are completely resolved. That said, he does best in a home that offers both high levels of physical activity and mental engagement, along with consistent leadership and structure to help him feel calm and secure during downtime. Goliath is incredibly well-rounded and trustworthy. He does beautifully with people, other animals, and new situations. He kennels perfectly, rides well in the car, can be left home alone for extended periods, walks politely on leash (especially with a gentle leader), and is 100% potty trained. He knows basic commands—come, sit, down, stay—and listens reliably. Goliath is from an Owner Surrender.
