Story

Pennington County Humane Society Ruffy Roo is a sweet, slightly shy little pup, about three months old&#194&#151who was found wandering all by himself, far too young to be facing the world alone. Even with that uncertain beginning, he carries a gentle, hopeful spirit. He watches new people with soft curiosity, easing in slowly before offering his quiet affection, and once he feels safe, his tail starts to flutter and his playful side peeks through. Ruffy Roo is the kind of baby who blossoms with patience, routine, and a calm home that lets him build confidence at his own pace. He's ready to leave his lonely start behind and grow into a cherished companion who finally knows he's safe and loved. Ruffy Roo is available for direct adoption or transfer to a trusted partner organization. Please contact PCHS at 218‑681‑8045 for more information.Pennington County Humane Society March 12, 2026, 12:07 pm

Story

MEET YAPACHA AND HIS BEST FRIENDS AT A MEET AND GREET/ADOPTION EVENT AT PET EVOLUTION AT 1074 GRAND AVE ON SUNDAY MARCH `15 12:30 -2:30. THE WEATHER IS SUPPOSED TO BE WINTER'S LAST GASP. WHAT COULD BE BETTER THAN A WARM PUPPY CUDDLE? Yapacha (Hopi for wind) is a fuzzy gray and white pup with stunning blue eyes. He was born in his PUP foster home on January 15. This little boy has never had a bad day in his life. He was one of 6 pups born to a beautiful and athletic 30# husky/shepherd/Australian Cattle dog/Chihuaha mommy. Yapacha is one of the larger pups in the litter. Mommy was an abandoned dog in a remote rural area. A concerned citizen asked if we could take her into rescue as the little pooch was homeless, pregnant and it was very cold. Mommy (pictured) is a beautiful girl who has been a devoted mommy but is ready to pass on the responsibility to someone else. None of the puppies look much like her, but we saw them born, so we know exactly who mommy is. Puppies are mostly using newspapers and are learning to do stairs and go outside (see the video of the mad charge.) We had DNA testing done on one pup from the litter. They are a serious mix and daddy must have been quite the character. There are a total of 27 breeds: in double digits are German Shepherd 21%, Chihuahua 12% and Australian Cattle Dog at 11%. There is 7% pug, 6% Catahoula Leopard Dog and the rest are under 4%: Border Collie, Great Pyrenees, Australian Shepherd, Miniature American Shepherd, Dachshund, Pekingese, Pomeranian, Bichon, Toy Poodle, Siberian Husky, Chow, Malamute, Samoyed, Shar-Pei, Akita, Bull Mastiff, American Bulldog, Pit Bull Terrier, Neapolitan Masstiff, Labrador Retriever, Goden Retriever and Greyhound. We call it hybrid vigor. You can call Yapacha pretty much any breed you want. There is no possibility of inbreeding here!! We think puppy will be toward the upper end of mid-size when an adult based on current weight and age. The early months are when puppy learns the social skills needed to be a skilled dog in dealing with other dogs and a good citizen in the human world. Adopters should be committed to getting puppy into lots of new and different human social situations, hearing vacuums, trucks, and rattling garbage cans, meeting people who are clapping, laughing, with hats, tools, bikes and skate boards. AND puppy needs many opportunities to meet and greet dogs of all shapes, sizes and dispositions. Just sharing a home with another dog is not as much doggie socializing as puppy needs. If good canine social skills are not learned and maintained during these early months, it will be very difficult to ever master them. Puppy play dates, trips to the pet store, puppy socialization classes and later, obedience classes are particularly important. If all this doggie time and involvement seems like a good idea, you are up for a puppy! As always, a tired dog is a good dog. Puppy has been vet checked, is vaccinated, and de-wormed. He will need two additional puppy vaccinations plus rabies at the adopter’s expense. We do place puppies outside the metro area if a firm plan for the alter surgery is in place; we do not ship. His required alter surgery is covered by the adoption fee if it is done by 6 months at the PUP clinic. We require that he be altered by 6 months. If you are at least 21 years old and everyone in your household is on board with adopting a puppy, CALL 651-645-4370 between 7:00 am and 9:30 pm and we will return your call within 24 hours. We are pretty slow at responding to e-mail. Renters must provide proof that you are allowed to have a puppy. If you currently have a companion dog or cat please be prepared to provide a vet reference prior to adoption if requested. https://youtube.com/shorts/Pms7qyE6Qvo Professional photography by Clara Metivier Photo of mommy by Sarah Watson

Story

Harley is a beautiful sable shepherd who truly embodies her breed—loyal, intelligent, and happiest when she’s close to her people. She thrives with structure, playtime, and plenty of human companionship. Whether she’s chasing balls or even the occasional fly, Harley always finds a way to make playtime fun. Because of her size and enthusiasm, she may accidentally knock over very small children, but she genuinely enjoys being around kids of all ages and loves spending time with her family. People are her favorite thing in the world! Harley is incredibly smart and eager to learn. She’s still working on her leash manners and can pull quite strongly on walks, but she makes up for it with an excellent off-leash recall and a quick-learning mind. With consistency and continued training, she will shine. She does wonderfully in her kennel and settles in quietly, and if you’re willing to share your bed, Harley will happily snuggle up and sleep beside you. Harley had a rough start to life, which is visible in the scarring on her face, but her spirit is nothing short of amazing. She is incredibly forgiving, gentle with her people, and full of love. Harley would do best as the only resident pet in the home. While she has been okay with some dogs in the past, her interactions can vary, so slow introductions would be essential and a home without female dogs is recommended. If you’re looking for a loyal, intelligent companion who will stick by your side through everything, Harley just might be your girl.
