Jill

Hound (Unknown Type) Basset Hound

Female, Puppy

Minneapolis, MN

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Jill is an adorable hound mix. She likes to be held and is very cuddly. We adopted her from the animal Humane Society in Golden Valley just about 10 days ago. During that time she has become very well House trained we’ve given her some baths and she’s been growing. We have three cats and she doesn’t get along well with one of them. She’s kind of timid, but yet she’s very easy to care for and loves to be coddled. She doesn’t really like going for walks and would be a great dog for someone who wants a dog to cuddle with. It doesn’t have a lot of time taking it out. Jill deserves a great family. She’s a really sweet dog. It’s just that we’re not able to have her with our other animals and we are looking for a dog that is more active.

Lula

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult

Minneapolis, MN

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Lula is a sweet 7-year-old German Shepherd who has spent her entire life with the same family. She grew up alongside two children, now 10 and 13, and has always been a loving and loyal part of their family. Lula is very affectionate and comfortable with the people she knows. She can be shy and cautious when meeting strangers, so she does best when given a little time and patience to warm up. Once she feels comfortable, you get to see the loving, loyal girl her family knows. After seven years with one family, finding Lula a new home is not an easy decision. We are looking for a patient, caring home where she can feel safe, settle in at her own pace, and become part of a family again. She would especially benefit from someone who understands German Shepherds and their loyal, protective nature. Lula has a lot of love left to give and deserves a home where she can spend her next chapter feeling secure and loved.

Fantastic pup available for rehoming. Caribou, approximately 9-10 months. Gets along well with kids and other dogs and is a super sweet and cuddly guy 🥰Does not shed a lot! Total plus!Only available to rehome to a forever family who will give him all the love and attention such an amazing dog deserves. Prefer experienced dog owners as he is a large breed dog and will need plenty of space, activity and care.Please no inquiry if you reside in an apartment or small space and would need to leave him alone or kenneled for long periods of time daily. He would do great in a home with at least one other dog as he loves having a friend to play with and snuggle with. Adoption fee also covers XL kennel, starter collar and leash (if you want them) and a bag of his dog food and any other toys and treats he may have at the time of adoption. He does not prefer to be kenneled, but does like having it as a safe space and will happily share it with another pup 😊

Story

The 90lb Gentle Giant of a Lap Dog: Meet Uggie Uggie is a 90lb powerhouse with the soul of a teddy bear. A classic American Bully with a "daunting" look, he’s actually the world’s worst watchdog—he’d sooner show a burglar the treat jar than bark. He truly believes he’s a lap dog and craves constant physical contact. If he isn’t leaning against you, he’s snoring so loud you’d think a lawnmower was starting up. Personality & Skills: Gentle Giant: Bell-trained, knows "sit," and very quiet. The Surgeon: Can extract a toy squeaker in under 10 minutes. Eager Learner: Highly treat-motivated and thrives on a schedule. The Ideal Match: Uggie is strong and powerful, requiring an adopter experienced with big breeds. This is a heartbreaking choice driven by health and financial changes; he deserves a home that can provide the care he needs. We love him deeply and need someone who will cherish his big heart and "Bully snores" just as much. Is your lap (and heart) ready for Uggie?
