Story
Kaya just turned 7 years old in November. We are relocating and would love to find her a home with a family. She is a dog who loves to talk at you, smiles when she is happy and or playing. She will bark at strangers coming down the driveway. Good early warning system. :) She was purchased from a Pierz MN resident who raises white and silver purebred shepherds. She prefers the outdoors and currently occupies a very large run (50 yards by 25 yards. We bring her into the house where she gets a treat then wants to head back outside and play. She is definitely playful, doesn't jump up on people, loves to smile and loves to talk and is kind of sassy when she does.

Story
Hi My name is Theo The people I live with are very busy with work and they feel like I deserve someone that can give me more attention. I do ok with cats and dog. My people would recommend slow introductions with other pets in the home. I'm a very playful dog. I love kids. I also love going for walks. I also love chilling with my people. I also LOVE treats. I know how to sit, shake, lay down and how to touch with my nose. My people think I could learn news trick if they had the time to teach me.

Story
Dutch is 13 years old and has been a great family dog for us since he was a puppy. He has recently begun having issues on and off with his hips and also with making it outside to go potty. We are almost empty nesters and we both work full time, one outside the home and the other travels often; so we are not able to let him out as often as necessary. Even when we are home, he has started messing in the house if we aren’t watching every moment. We have had him in to the vet to check on both his hips ad the change in potty habits, and they didn’t find anything. Even though it breaks my heart to think about giving him up, he needs more time and attention than we can give with his current needs. We have a kennel and other necessities that we would be happy to provide to make his transition easier.

Story
Rosie is a sweet eleven year old purebred red piebald dachshund. Her family moved and couldn't take her along. She spent her entire life with her previous family and needs time to adjust to a new living situation. Rosie has beautiful blue eyes, one is smaller than the other (congenital issue). She had a fatty (non-cancerous) tumor removed from her chest in September 2022, it is starting to grow back. She's is in great health. Rosie is spayed but is not current on vaccinationsShe weighs about 20 pounds. She will be microchipped before she leaves. Rosie lived with three other small-breed dogs (all younger than her), and she did very well. She's selective about which dogs she's making friends with in her foster home, and has gone after other dogs (almost exclusively female dogs). She needs to be placed in a home without other female dogs for her own safety. Rosie can be food aggressive toward other animals (cats included), but not toward humans. She needs to be fed in her own area away from other pets. Rosie is a dachshund and as such she cannot live with rabbits or other small pets - she will try to kill them. She is accustomed to sleeping in the big bed with her people. Rosie loves snuggles, will roll over for tummy rubs, and is active and happy when she's around her people. She prefers plush toys over hard toys and is food and treat motivated. She gets one cup of food per day to maintain her healthy weight. Kids are no problem. Rosie loves her two-legged foster siblings (ages 9 and up). She has a good recall (most of the time) while in a fenced area (poor recall if allowed to run loose), but she walks well on a leash. She does well being let out every three hours throughout the day, but will have accidents if she's not let out regularly. Her previous home left potty pads on the floor, her foster home relies on outdoor potty training. Rosie does howl and cry if she thinks she is home alone. She would do best in a home with someone who can be with her full time - or can bring her with them to work - or can have a pet nanny or dog sitter with her at all times. Rosie's original family would like to stay in touch and get updates if at all possible. Rosie is available for adoption to an approved home that can meet her specific needs. Her adoption fee is $375.

Story
Tess here, I am a bit on the shy side and take a while to warm up but I am so sweet once I know you are a friend. I LOVE other dogs and would do best in a home with another dog to play with and show me all the dog things. I am quiet, do great in my kennel and love the outdoors.
