Story
Alice is an 8-year old Great Dane/Labrador mix and a certified velcro dog! At 104 lbs, she is spry and energetic for her age with short bursts of energy before settling back into her favorite pastime: snoozing. Alice will happily follow you around from room to room just to make sure she doesn't miss out on the action!Alice adjusted easily to her foster home and has proven to be an easygoing and loyal companion. She is house-trained and crate-trained, and is happy to go into the crate when asked. When she gets excited, she will grab her favorite soft, squeaky toy and prance around the room, letting everyone know how happy she is. She shows her affection by gently nuzzling or leaning into you for pats, and her favorite way to ask for belly rubs is by rolling onto her back and waiting patiently. She’d thrive in a home where people are around often and where she doesn’t need to be crated too much, otherwise she may bark on and off. She doesn't get very vocal, but when she barks it can be loud. She usually makes a quiet "woof" when she needs to go outside or is hungry (if you haven't attended to those things already). She can sometimes bark when crated, but it never lasts that long.Alice is a creature of habit who thrives on routine, anticipating each part of the day from eating to walking to going in her crate on her own. Her foster family says that training has been a breeze—Alice now knows to sit and wait before eating, receiving treats, and getting her harness on for walks. She only asks for love and a comfy couch to lay on.She loves people and forms a special bond with women. She is social with other dogs and loves making new friends at the dog park. She cannot live in a home with cats. Alice has a lower energy level overall, but she loves going outside! She loves to go on hikes and is surprisingly great on a leash, not pulling at all.She might be 8 years-old, but Alice still has a lot of love, life, and joy to give! Are you ready to meet this sweetheart?If you are interested in Alice, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $250. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. Due to post-adoption services provided, we prefer to adopt within a 150-mile radius of the Twin Cities. However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.

Story
Willow is a relatively young Mastiff Great Dane mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for her people. She is incredibly affectionate and thrives on being close to those she trusts. Cuddling is one of her favorite activities and she will happily lay on you if given the chance, making her a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys a true velcro dog. She is playful, sweet, and enjoys engaging with her people through gentle play and affection. Despite her large size, Willow often seems unaware of just how big she is and would much prefer to be a lap dog whenever possible. Willow does have shorter eyelashes that cause some eye irritation, so her eyes need to be wiped regularly to keep her comfortable. This is a simple but important part of her daily care and adopters should be prepared to stay consistent with this routine. Willow would do best in a home that appreciates a loving, affectionate dog and is comfortable providing minor ongoing care to keep her feeling her best. In return, she will offer endless love, loyalty, and plenty of cuddles. After a flood, Willow’s family is needing to rehome her and her sister, Raven, while they rebuild their home. They have had to take on additional jobs to cover expenses, making it impossible to give the dogs the time and attention they deserve right now. Willow and Raven are both looking for a foster or foster to adopt home where they can receive stability, care, and plenty of love during this transition. Please apply at www.campcompanion.org

Story
Raven is a very loving, silly girl with a big personality and a great sense of humor. If she decides she does not want to do something, she will dramatically lay down and roll over like a toddler, which never fails to make people laugh. She shows affection in much the same way, often rolling into her people to give what can only be described as full body hugs. Raven has a good training foundation and knows how to sit, shake, and lay down. She also responds well to hand gestures along with verbal commands. She does prefer to eat and drink separately from other dogs and does best when given her own space during mealtimes. This is an easy and manageable preference that helps her feel comfortable and relaxed. Raven would do best in a home that appreciates her goofy, affectionate nature and is willing to respect her boundaries around food. In return, she will bring lots of laughs, love, and loyalty to her future family. After a flood, Raven's family is needing to rehome her and her sister, Willow, while they rebuild their home. They have had to take on additional jobs to cover expenses, making it impossible to give the dogs the time and attention they deserve right now.

Story
This girl is such a gem. Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a stellar personality. She lived outside with her previous owner. Dodged bullets for eating out of neighbor's trashed. Bred over and over for puppies. Most of her puppies were also shot by neighbors, stolen, or hit by cars in the road. Despite Billie's neglect and heartbreak, she has a heart of gold. She is doing wonderful in our car, loves to go for walks, loves all the staff attention, and never has an accident in her kennel. Don't miss out on this sweet girl.

Story
Welcome Cheeto. He is a 6 month old Great Dane mix. He is 67 pounds right now and may be 80 pounds full grown. Cheeto is a great dog. He loves treats and will sit when asked to with a treat. He loves the lady kennel workers. He is timid which is common in this breed but he is very friendly and affectionate. He would be great with someone that knows and understands this wonderful breed. He was found on the streets of Texas and was taken in by a good Samaritan. He can go with children. We like them to 8 or older. He would love to be a companion for the right family. He will love being a house dog and he is energetic but not for too much time and he settles down nicely. If you have a fenced back yard, he can get enough exercise exploring it. He could also go on walks. He does pull some but he really wants to do what you are asking so consistency with him will work wonders. He is currently neutered, vaccinated, healthy and ready for his forever home. He is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is 400 and transport is $200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.

Story
 Meet Pixie! This petite, pretty blue girl lives up to her magical name! At just 2.5 years old, Pixie has already been on quite an adventure—several homes, a stray in the Twin Cities, and finally rescued thanks to her microchip. Now, she’s ready for her happily ever after!  Pixie is sweet as sugar and playful at heart. She LOVES toys, enjoys a good nap on the couch, and is happiest when she has a family to call her own. She’s already house-trained, kennel-trained, and knows some basic obedience—but she’d thrive with a family willing to keep teaching her new tricks. Because Pixie thinks the best treasures are hers to keep, she’d do best as the only pet in the home. That way, she can soak up all the love, snuggles, and attention she deserves.  Now spayed, fully vetted, and full of hope, Pixie is ready to bring joy, laughter, and love into the right forever home. Could that be you?  ##2506654##
