Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Bert is a sweet little guy that came into rescue with his brother Ernie. There was a little sibling syndrome going on with Bert being more the alpha, so we decided to adopt them out separately. Bert is a lover, on the one hand, cuddly and sweet, but he can have a feisty terrier 'tude sometimes where he wants to be the boss (with other meeker dogs or cats). He does get along with confident cats. It's hard for us to know if he would be Ok as a solo dog as he's been with his brother his whole life. Perhaps a female dog would be best for him. A fenced in yard would be great as he loves to run and explore and bark at the squirrels or strangers! :) This is preferred, but we could explore your situation if you do not have that. Bert can be barky and defensive with strangers, he may need "managed intros" with people he doesn't know. Adoption fee: $525.00 each + Mn tax Interested in adopting?

Story

Cricket is an energetic, young puppy with a beautiful, soft coat of fur. She is nearly house trained and can make it through the night and in her own room for extended periods of time without issue while her foster is away. She is very friendly with all ages of people she meets-- typically going right up to them with her tail wagging and ready to give them affectionate licks. She is good on walks as it gives her a chance to explore and check out everything. She is a bit hesitant when seeing other dogs at a distance, but gladly interacts with them once near enough. She gets along well with her fellow foster dog and the resident dog. She is fairly indifferent with the resident cats. When tired, she loves to cuddle near you and/or the other dogs. She almost innately learned to sit for food and treats, despite being super excited. She would be a great addition to any house. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $625.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 25, 2026, 11:30 pm

Story

Hello, my name is Frodo or Fitzgerald! I’m a one year old happy energetic pup that’s listed as a Great Dane Mix. I’m overall pretty friendly with all. I am kennel trained and a great eater, which means I’m also fun to teach new tricks to! I would be best suited to go to a new home that has a schedule and lifestyle that I can be a huge part of. Since I’m young and full of energy I would do best in a fenced in yard or have the ability to have new activities I can be a part of like hiking or day trips to explore new places. I need solid leadership as sometimes I need to be a little recentered or refocused when I get over stimulated. Because of this, I would be best in a place without young children as I’m still a little uncoordinated from time to time and little kid energy is a bit confusing for me. Kids who are a little older and are interested in helping train me are definitely an exception. Basically from the get go I’m going to just need consistency throughout everyone in the household to help me learn the rules so I can settle in successfully. My current foster mom does in-home boarding at our house so I spend my days meeting new dogs and some new people, so I am pretty well socialized and very much thrive with all the constant stimulation. I do best meeting others outside my kennel in an open space, I tend to be submissive and take appropriate correction from dogs older than me, very well as I’m constantly learning ways to play with all different sizes and breeds. I can't wait to find my forever family! Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $525.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 25, 2026, 11:30 pm
