Story
Loki is the sweetest boy with people he knows; he cuddles so close you’d think he’s apart of you! Unfortunately with people he doesn’t know, mainly with men, Loki may show aggressive tendencies, and needs some time to warm up! Once he knows people, he is wonderful and wants to be right by you. Loki would thrive in a laidback home where his owner is a homebody. He does well with cats and dogs with proper introductions. He would benefit from no kids due to their lack of predictability. If you want to know more about Loki we would love to hear from you!

Story
Bruno is 7 months old. I bought him off of Facebook from a rural couple who had bread their Australian shepherds. Bruno had (unknowingly) double ear infections and worms when I brought him home. We got him dewormed, treated his ears and he is up to date on shots. He is an itchy boy, likely seasonal allergies and has received an allergy shot.Looking for a home educated in high energy breeds, without cats, and probably without young children. Bruno loves our kids, but can fixate on them when they’re playing or if they’re crying.Although he does well with them, I do believe he would be a calmer dog without small children.Bruno does not get along well with our 10 year old cat. He gets very fixated on her. Typical hearding breed behaviors. He believes she should be on the counter and is vigilant to ensure she stays there.Bruno’s medical needs just include being aware of his itch and getting allergy shots as needed

Story
Blue man is such a SWEETIE has truly has been my one n only ride or die for the last 6 years. I have kids, and a smaller dog, at one time we had a very very small cat & he loves them all, just as we love him. This is so sad and breaks my heart but the apartment we are moving into does not accept dogs his breed. (Size is what it is I’m sure). He loves to play in the grass, roll around. He LOVES car rides and will hop right in. His favorite thing to do is to get back scratchies and to let his ears blow in the wind during car rides.

Story
Meet Ziggy! Born 02/21/2025. He is a high energy snuggle bug that will steal your heart. He would do best in a home with no other pets as he exudes alpha energy and loves ALL of your attention. He loves snuggling with his humans and wants to be touched all of the time. He is rambunctious and would do great with a fenced yard that he can run in. He loves toys, food and fun!

Story
Crixus is an 8-year-old, 65 lb German Shepherd with a gentle soul and a strong heart. He’s mellow and polite in the home, perfectly potty trained, and happy to lounge under the table or near his people as they go about their day. While he loves a good walk and sniffs everything with purpose, he’s also content to kick back and watch the world go by. He’s kid-friendly, dog-curious (but strong on leash), and loves to be outside. Crixus is  not a good match for homes with cats or small dogs , but could potentially live with another large dog after slow introductions. He’ll be neutered before adoption and is ready to start the next chapter of his life with a calm but active family. Age:8 year old Breed: German Shepherd Weight: 65 lbs Kid-friendly: Yes Dogs:Does well with larger dogs with proper introduction, not great with small dogs Cats:No Crate trained: Yes Potty trained: Yes Health concerns: None at this time Current medications & estimated costs:None.  Will be neutered before being adopted. Adoption fee:$375 As a rescue, we provide the care, procedures and testing that is available to us. Adopters will be responsible for continued preventatives, follow-up appointments, and medications (if applicable). At times, adopters will be responsible for procedures not completed in rescue (dentals, bloodwork, etc.)  Your new dog will receive their rabies and distemper vaccine.  $50 discount for seniors (65+) and veterans. Adoption fees help pay for the dog's veterinary exam, vaccinations (rabies and distemper) HW test and spay/neuter if needed and additional health needs specific to each animal.   Grey Face Rescue does not adopt outside of Minnesota for now. We apologize for the inconvenience.  We do not adopt animals to families whose current pets are not up-to-date on vaccinations or not altered. Exceptions may be made for medical reasons as stated by a veterinarian and we will require proof of that recommendation. Thank you for understanding our mission to reduce overpopulation.  Once you submit your application, our adoption manager will be in touch, so please check your spam folder if you do not see something from us within 7-10 days.  Thank you again for your interest in a Grey Face senior. We appreciate your support!   October 13, 2025, 5:13 pm
