Story
Hi! My name is Madison and I'm looking for a loving home to call my own! I am 4 years old and I've been at the shelter since 8/27. I made my way to the shelter as a stray so staff are unsure of any of my history. Due to this it is unknown how I would do living with cats, dogs, or kids. Staff thinks I would do best living with no dogs, I have not been fond of any during my time here.I am a super sweet lady, I love to be close to you and cuddle! I love going on walks and sniffing up the trail. I love a tennis ball and a good ol' game of fetch. My ideal home would be patient, loving, and understanding while I acclimate to my new home!

Hi! My name is Felicia and I'm looking for a loving home to call my own! *Lyme +*I am 10 months old and I've been at the shelter since 9/18/26.I made my way to the shelter as a stray with three other dogs. When we were found we were eating trash so staff think that we were likely roaming for awhile. Staff think that we may have gotten in altercations over food sources as I have some scarring on my face and one of the other dogs I came with was injured pretty bad. Due to my unknown history staff are unsure how I would do living with cats/dogs/kids.My ideal home would be very patient and understanding while I acclimate to a new home. I haven't had any stability so far in my life so I'm really looking for someone that will provide me with structure and lots of love. Staff say I'm eager to please, very treat motivated, and doing amazing with potty training! I'm such a sweet gal and I'm so ready to steal your heart!If you are interested in adopting me, please visit Animal Allies at 4006 Airport Road or you can call the Adoption Team at 218-722-5341 as early as 10:30 AM and place a nonrefundable $25 hold towards my adoption fee to put you first in-line to adopt!

Story
Hi! My name is Steven and I'm looking for a loving home to call my own! I am 2 years old and I've been at the shelter since 8/2/26I'm a big strong handsome fella that loves to make new friends! I love to play with stuffy toys and tend to get very excited about them and tear them up, so I hope you have lots of them for me! I have a lot of energy so I am looking for someone to take me on adventures, work my brain, and spoil the heckoutta me! I'm working on my basic manners and getting more comfortable with crate training, and I'm very eager to learn! I walk pretty well on leash but I am a strong dude when I do pull. I love snacks so continuing my training should be easy peasy lemon squeezy.My ideal home would be patient and loving while I settle into my new crib. I have been adopted out to two previous homes with one common factor that have gotten me returned to the shelter: both had kiddos. I was not aggressive with the kids but just don't understand my size and was knocking them over a lot. Due to this I am looking for a home with no young kids, I'd probably do just fine with teenagers! If you are interested in adopting me, please visit Animal Allies at 4006 Airport Road or you can call the Adoption Team at 218-722-5341 as early as 10:30 AM and place a nonrefundable $25 hold towards my adoption fee to put you first in-line to adopt!
