Story
Hi, I’m Kiara! Yes, my name is fancy because, well, have you seen me? I came all the way from Arkansas to Minnesota because I heard this is where all the nice families live. I’m about 2 ½ years old, 40 pounds of love, and apparently a “Whippet mix” (which sounds like a milkshake flavor, if you ask me).   Let’s address the scar on my face right away—it’s from when some not-so-nice humans who taped my mouth shut. But don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt anymore, and I like to think of it as my superhero badge. After all, I survived and still LOVE people. Take that, bad guys!   Here’s what you should know about me:   Lap Dog Wannabe: At 40 lbs, I have no concept of personal space. Your lap = my bed. Teen & Adult Approved: I love humans of all sizes (except maybe toddlers who want my toys…we’ll talk about that later). Cats: Sniffed one, got whacked, immediate respect earned. End of story. Dogs: Truthfully, they aren’t so bad to have around. They are mere peasants to me. I ignore them, but don’t get it twisted. My toys and my toys. I do not share.   Stuffed Animals: Your stuffed toys? They’re toast. I’m a certified Fluff Removal Specialist. Countertops: I’m…curious. There’s just so much treasure up there! My foster mom says “off” a lot. I’m learning. Walks: I love them! Leashes, not so much. Harnesses help, and with a little practice, I’ll be strutting like a pro. Kennel Life: Big fan. It’s my dining room, bedroom, and “me time” cave. Car Rides: Windows down, ears flapping, living my best dog life. Potty Training: I’m close! Sometimes my signals are subtle—apparently humans need training too.   What I really want is someone who will laugh at my quirks, work with me on my “sharing is caring” issue, and most importantly, let me shower them with love. I’ve got a heart the size of Minnesota, and I can’t wait to find my forever couch…uh, I mean family. So—how about it? Want to meet your new best friend, professional snuggler, and world’s best stuffed animal shredder?   Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee:  $475.00    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 20, 2025, 9:34 pm

Story
Hey there, it’s (Lucky) Jack . I’ve been told I’m a bit of a catch, so I figured I’d try this singles ad thing. I’m a handsome 9-year-old fella looking for my forever family. I’m good with kids, other dogs and cats, so I’m kind of a catch! I’m all about a quiet night in, snuggling on the couch and supervising your every move to make sure you’re safe from rabid squirrels. My resume includes “Master Cuddler,” “Expert Napper,” and “Professional Treat Inspector,” so I’m bringing a lot to the table. My foster mom says I’m part cat because I love to perch on the back of the couch to keep an eye on everything. I’m housebroken & independent enough that I don’t mind keeping the couch warm when you’re away. I promise to be the best boy you’ve ever had. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who loves with his whole heart, send my rescue people a message. Let’s make it official. 💙🐾

Supervision ensures everyone gets along swimmingly. On a leash, she's eager but pulls with exuberance, a behavior we're working on refining.Chew toys are a must in Niabi's world - she loves them durable and entertaining.

Richfield, MN
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Dandi! Watching this beautiful Great Pyrenees mix (likely with whippet or greyhound) run is watching poetry in motion. She is fast, graceful, & can turn on a dime. This is all done in play or merely for pure joy. Dandi does not have a prey drive. She is fine with cats. Dandi gets along famously with dogs of all sizes. This is fantastic as she must have at least one canine companion to help her manage her very high energy levels. Once her frenetic high spiritedness has been drained, she plays contentedly on her own with toys. She is affectionate, craves attention. Her ideal home: An active family Older children At least one canine companion A fenced yard with room for her to run She is not the type of dog to be crated & left alone for long periods. Attributes: Very high energy Must have at least one canine companion Crate trained Leash trained Cat safe Older children best Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
