Story
Tess here, I am a bit on the shy side and take a while to warm up but I am so sweet once I know you are a friend. I LOVE other dogs and would do best in a home with another dog to play with and show me all the dog things. I am quiet, do great in my kennel and love the outdoors.

Story
Meet Tyson — affectionately known as Chicken Nugget or just Nuggie. 🍗💛 Tyson’s story starts on the streets of Oklahoma, where he was found as a stray by an unhoused man who showed him incredible kindness. He made sure Tyson was safe and cared for, and reached out to one of our trusted rescue partners in Tulsa to help this little guy find a better future. Because of that compassion, Tyson is now safe, loved, and ready for his forever home. True to his nickname, Chicken Nugget, Tyson is a perfectly bite-sized bundle of joy — happy-go-lucky, affectionate, and always ready for snuggles. He absolutely adores playing with his puppy foster siblings and is happiest when he’s part of the action or curled up close to his people. Tyson is working diligently on both crate and potty training and continues to make great progress with consistency and routine. He’s a loving, sweet-natured puppy who will thrive in a home ready to guide him as he grows and learns. If you’re looking for a cuddly, playful, heart-melting little Nuggie to add to your family, Tyson is ready to come home. 🐾💛 Tyson’s adoption fee is $425 plus MN tax which covers his neuter, vaccinations, microchip and any additional medical care he may have needed while in the rescue’s care. We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website.

Story
Meet Alex, affectionately called Bug! 🐞🩷 Don’t let the name fool you—this 4-month-old sweetheart is a total love-bug! Currently looking for her forever home through Northern Lakes Rescue, Bug is the perfect mix of puppy playfulness and professional-level snuggling. Why you’ll love her: • The Ultimate Cuddler: She lives for hugs, kisses, and being right by your side. • A Star Pupil: She already knows "Sit" and "Down," and she’s currently mastering "Shake!" • Great House Guest: She’s almost fully potty trained and sleeps through the night like a champ. 💤 • Social Butterfly: She loves other dogs! She’s a fan of roughhousing, so she’d love a playmate who shares her energy. Bug is ready to fill your home with puppy breath and wagging tails. Could you be her furever home? 🐕 Alex’s adoption fee is $425 plus MN tax which covers her spay, vaccinations appropriate at the time of adoption, microchip and any additional medical care she may have needed while in the rescue’s care. We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are.

Story
Piper is the kind of dog rescue people never forget — because she’s a survivor and a sweetheart. This beautiful mama and her 10 puppies landed on the euthanasia list after being found alone, starving, sick, and abandoned when their owner passed away. Piper fought fiercely for every single one of her babies… but heartbreakingly, 5 of her pups didn’t survive after arriving at the shelter. Even through grief and exhaustion, Piper kept going — giving everything she had to the remaining 5, arriving skin and bones from pouring her body into motherhood. Now? Piper is finally getting what she’s always deserved: stability, safety, full meals, and a soft place to land. Piper is gentle, loving, and completely devoted to her people. She isn’t an “independent, do-your-own-thing” type of dog — she’s more of a Velcro bestie who wants to be near you, see you, and love you with her whole heart. She thrives on affection and reassurance, and she’ll be the kind of dog who makes you feel like the center of her world. ✅ Dog friendly (loves playing and chasing with dog friends!) ✅ Kid friendly ✅ Sleeps in her kennel at night and does well with routine ✅ Food-motivated and treat obsessed (training potential = HUGE!) Because Piper is so bonded to her humans, she can be anxious when she can’t see you — including in the car. Piper will do best with a home that can continue building her confidence and provide safe travel management (crate/seatbelt setup, calming routine, etc.). Piper survived for her babies. Now she deserves someone who will fight for her. 💗 Her adoption fee is $400 plus MN tax which covers her spay, vaccinations appropriate at the time of adoption, microchip and any additional medical care she may have needed while in the rescue’s care. We are a foster based rescue, we do not house dogs at a facility. Age and breed are NLR's best guess as we often don't know who or what mom and dad are.
