Story
We took bear in after learning he was left with a family that thought they were “watching” him only to have the original owners not return. The story seemed suspicious to us and we decided to foster him out of what we thought was a really strange situation. He’s a good dog, we just never intended on keeping him, as we already have 2. Is great with kids as long as he’s not being pulled on or squished. Gets along great with other animals. We believe he’s possibly been subject to some kind of trauma or similar as he scares easily to loud noises as will retreat into hiding. Storms seem to be hard for him, he has a lot of anxiety and spends most of his time hiding under our bed until bed time when he climbs up to snuggle. Loud noises outside have caused him to bolt and we’ve been having a hard time with him running away. With two kids and two dogs already this is just not something we are capable of handling any longer. Very timid, very loving. Wants to be held and snuggled all the time.

Meet Bleu! Turning 5 this October, Bleu is hands-down the sweetest, most innocent soul you will ever meet. He is the ultimate "little shadow" who will happily follow you to the ends of the Earth.

He loves being out and about, and is looking for a family with the time and bandwidth to take him on long daily adventures. Bleu is incredibly devoted and currently very attached to his brother, Beau, so he would love to be adopted as a bonded pair or go to a home ready to let him be their constant, loyal companion.Please adopt together with Beau https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/49177466-sartell-minnesota-maltese-mix

Story
Meet Beau! This 9-pound Maltipom turns 10 soon, but he’s a true ageless wonder who frequently gets mistaken for a dog half his age. Beau is a spunky guy with a big personality; he loves acting tough with large dogs from a distance, though he politely stands down once they get close. He’s been a deeply cherished, slightly spoiled diva his whole life, accustomed to weekend adventures and overflowing toy bins. He values his independent alone time but will always make time to curl up on your lap for a cozy nap.Beau is incredibly fit and can easily walk for miles. He thrives in an active household that can provide him with the frequent daily walks and focused attention he's used to. If you want a fun, energetic, and affectionate companion to spoil, Beau is your guy!Please adopt with his non-biological brother, Bleu https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/49186605-sartell-minnesota-maltese-pomeranian-mix

Story
Rosie is a deeply loved pittie mix who will turn six in December. She is incredibly sweet, affectionate and happiest snuggled beside her people. She has been wonderful with children, friendly with strangers and great with other dogs. She loves being outdoors and would thrive with a family wanting a loyal companion for both adventures and cuddles.Rosie is not suitable for a home with cats or small animals. She can also become overstimulated by power tools and loud noises, so she needs a calm place during noisy activities.Rehoming Rosie is heartbreaking. Our city limits us to two dogs and our request to keep all three was denied. Rosie has an early-stage mast-cell tumor that causes itching and requires veterinary monitoring. She currently has a Potentially Dangerous Dog designation following one isolated bite incident after a stressful vet visit. She may be eligible to have it removed in approximately five months. Rosie has lots of love to give and life to live!

Story
American Bully not Bulldog I rescued Tia in January in my hometown of California MD. I had just retired and she and I were inseparable. Last month we drove cross-country for me to begin a new career in MN. She did so wonderful with just the two of us. But after getting here and being her 3 weeks, I feel horrible. I find myself sometimes being gone 14 or 16 hours a day and she is just lonely. I cannot crate her, so she has free reign. But she has no one with her. It is breaking my heart to do this but she deserves so much better. She needs an owner that can give her the time and attention she deserves. She is such a pleaser, such a sweetheart. I have never heard her bark, honestly, ever. She is very friendly with everyone she meets. She is scared of trash bags and bubbles. But she is a people person and needs interaction to be happy. If you have other dogs, great. Cats, great. Kids, great. Just a companion, great. I swear you will not find a more loyal dog than T.
