Story
This is Bluey! Bluey is a Husky and Pitbull mix and he is 3 years young! He is a cute puppy that love’s attention is good with cats and really loves walks. Ever since he was a baby he loved physical touch every time he sleeps he tries to find a foot, leg, or arm to snuggle up with. His favorite brand to eat is called blue! But I hope this helps him find a new home that can love and care for him as much as we do!

Story
Brandy is a 1.5‑year‑old, 31‑lb female Basset mix with a striking silky black‑and‑tan coat and an affectionate, people‑oriented nature. She is a social dog who gets along well with both cats and other dogs, making her a suitable candidate for multi‑pet households. Brandy has a naturally enthusiastic and bouncy temperament, and her energy level makes her best suited for families with older children who can appreciate her playful spirit. She is extremely snuggly, has little sense of personal space, and prefers to stay close to her people at all times. Brandy is known for her deep hound bark and expressive “grumble talk,” which she uses to communicate excitement or seek attention. She loves giving kisses and thrives on affection and companionship. Brandy is currently pad‑trained indoors and continuing to work on her overall potty‑training skills. She enjoys toys, playtime, and activities that allow her to be silly and interactive. She strongly prefers sleeping in bed with her people rather than in a kennel, and adopters should be comfortable with a close‑contact companion. Brandy is a loving, spirited young dog who will make a devoted and joyful addition to the right home. She is eager to continue her training, share her affectionate nature, and become a cherished member of a family who appreciates her playful energy and desire for closeness.         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.

Story
Hi there, my name is Minnetonka but I go by Tonka for short. I am a 9 week old terrier/mix. I am a very smart girl. I learned how to go up the stairs and then I learned how to go down the stairs. Potty training has been almost perfect. I had only one accident and that was my first night so that doesn't count. I go out after eating and every 2 hours. I will let you know in the night with a little whine when I need to go. I love going outside sand found a great hiding spot that is behind the hostas. I eat out of a slow feeder because I eat so fast. So please don't have any other food setting out, because I don't know when I am full. I like to snuggle but love to run also. I sleep in my kennel and will go right in if there is a small treat waiting for me. I play with the neighbor kids everyday. I hope you liked what you read and want to put in an application from. 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.

Story
Mille Lacs (Millie) is a sweet, fun-loving blue heeler mix pup with beautiful markings.  She loves to wrestle around with her siblings as well as run around the backyard to explore.  She knows how to sit already and is learning to lie down for treats.  She is currently doing very well with pee pads and the transition to being house trained, during which she goes bathroom outside shortly after exiting the house.  She has done very well meeting other people and has seemed indifferent to the one neighboring dog so far.  She has had a non-aggressive approach to the cats in the house, rather just curious at this point.  At times, she will approach to be picked up and just snuggle on my lap.  She would be best in a home that will allow her to use her heeler energy as she continues to grow.       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.
