Story
This handsome guy is a 3 year old, 87 pound, Retriever mix! Sebastian loves getting pets, and attention from his friends and visitors at the shelter, and his laid-back demeanor makes him a delight to be around. This boy would do best in a home where he's the only dog, as he prefers having 100% of the attention! Sebastian is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

Story
Turn on "You'll be in my heart" by Phil Collins while you read about Tarzan! This 3 year old, 42 pound, hound mix came to us as a stray back in early August. He's been in the shelter ever since and hasn't had a lot of meet and greets. We don't understand why, because this dog gives amazing hugs and loves everyone he's ever met! Tarzan has a very fun energy that will keep you active and entertained. Tarzan is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM at the shelter!

Hello! I'm a four month old, Shepherd mix, goofy pup that loves to play! I'm always filled to the brim with absolute joy whether I be playing with other dogs, people, or just relaxing! I'm looking for my forever playmate and loving home. Could that be you? I'm neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated to age. You can visit me at The Babinski Foundation Animal Shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

Story
Hi, I'm Lanner. I am smart and loving! My favorite things are Jolly balls for outside, balls, squeakers, runs, training, and trips! I have lots of energy to play play play but can settle in for snuggles too. I am kennel and potty trained and have a strong desire to please my humans. I get along with other dogs well once we've figured each other out. Cats and kids are a little harder for me. I am a higher drive boy and their quick movements catch my attention. I am redirectable and respond great to clear boundaries and lots of loves! A dream of mine is to have a job to do or fun training classes like agility or nose work! I am ready to be a part of someone's future, forever! Lanner's adoption fee is $400 plus MN tax which covers his neuter, vaccinations, microchip and any additional medical care he may have needed while in the rescue's care. We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website. www.northernlakesrescue.org

Story
Hi, I am Izzy. I am a mix of a few breeds, maybe super mutt :). I love other dogs, adore kids, get along with cats and love my people. I am a little more cautious around men until I warm up. I am almost 3 years old, spayed and ready for my forever home!

Story
Hello I am Tesla! I am a happy and goofy boy looking for a family that will help me continue my confidence building in new situations. All I want are my own people that want to spend time with me and appreciate my hilarious personality. I do well with other dogs and cats but need someone consistent with the manners I have. I haven't met too many kids where I am at but with proper desensitization to their fast movements, I'd be fine with kids over 10. My foster mom and dad have a very busy household and have worked hard with me on stranger danger, but I will still occasionally bark at new people I haven't quite gotten to know. My foster mom has worked hard with me on my training and I currently know the basic Sit, Down, wait/stay, come and Leave it commands. I am also completely potty, crate, and off leash trained as well! Someone that wants to bring me home would need to understand that I will take time to warm up but am very goofy once I do! I warm up to women faster than men but also really like my current foster dad. I really love toys especially bones that I can chew on. I can't wait to hopefully meet you soon!
