Story
Hi! I’m Ghost! I’m a 10 year old deaf pitbull mix who was flown up here in a private airplane from Texas! It’s a little colder up here, but I love it! My foster Mom says I’m such a good boy! I don’t go potty in the house, I like my crate, I rarely bark, and I’ll sleep right through people knockin on the door! I had a thing called Heartworm, but Mom says I just completed my treatment and am ready to find my forever home! If you want a snuggle buddy, I’m your man! I would prefer to be an only pet, but maybe with slow intros, I’d be okay with one doggy friend. Would you be my Valentine?? This pet is microchipped, spayed/neutered & up to date on vaccinations. The adoption fee is $250. If you are interested in learning more, please e-mail adoptions.protectingpaws@gmail.com

Story
Hercules is a sweet enthusiastic boy born in April 2021. He was brought in as a stray and was never claimed. We can't figure out why - he is a real charmer. He needs some work slowing down when he is on a leash - he is so eager to go everywhere. Hercules would do best in a home where he is the only animal. He would make a great companion for someone looking for a dog with energy and personality plus. All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped. All of this is included in their adoption fee. Fill out an application to adopt at freeborncountyhs.org When transitioning your new pet home please allow for at least 4-6 weeks for your pet to adjust to their new home. They will need this time to decompress, and adjust to a new routine and environment. During that time we will provide check ins and counseling to ensure a successful transition. Please review all basic adoption requirements listed on our website before applying. We take finding the right homes for the animals in our care very seriously. They deserve nothing but the best! Please allow 2-7 days for applications to be processed. If an animal is listed in foster care, these pets are not at our facility, but are in foster care homes. They are still available for adoption, and meet and greets are done with pre-approved applicants only. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email at freeborncohumanesociety@gmail.com, send us a message on Facebook, or call or text 507-377-8501.

Story
Dillon was found running down Margaretha with a leash still attached, but nobody came for him. He is a beautiful brindle boy with lots of muscle and a big beautiful head. Dillon should be an only animal. Older kids with dog experience would be ok. He is a happy sweet boy. He prefers women and is nervous around men and loud noises. A gal with a quiet home would be Dillon's choice for his next human. He loves car rides and loves to snuggle. All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Rocky came to the shelter from the city pound when his time was up and no one had claimed him. We do know a little about his history and know that he's around a year old and Rocky is his real name. He's a little shy at first but warms up quickly and is loving and playful. He has been vet checked, neutered, and microchipped and his fee is $150.  Rocky is a young dog who has had a little basic training. He needs a home that can provide him with the exercise he requires. He did live with kids in his previous home. We do think he could do okay with a female dog with proper intros. We have no way of knowing about cats. He really is a honey!

We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South.

She is compact and muscular, and almost panther like. Sasha is a nice girl who has had some basic training. She has been vet checked and spayed and her fee is $150. Sasha will require regular exercise as she is young, strong, and energetic. We do think she would do okay with a well-mannered MALE dog. She also lived with cats and kids.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Rowen came to us on 4/23/2022 from our friends at the Rescue Network after he was rescued from a reservation in South Dakota. He has always been a volunteer favorite! He was adopted in May, 2025 and returned recently. Unfortunately, he bonded very quickly and closely to the woman of the home and became very protective of her. She invested a lot of time and money in professional training but Rowen just would not accept her husband or other visitors coming into the home. It was a very difficult decision, but she had no choice but to return him to us. Rowen's adoption fee of $125 is sponsored. We're not giving up on Rowen as we do believe that his perfect fit is out there, somewhere. He has had basic training and enjoys a good, brisk walk and playing fetch. He's looking for an adult only home without a lot of foot traffic. He needs someone who is willing and able to provide him with the exercise he needs, along with consistent training and boundaries. He is strong and active. He's a happy and outgoing dog with a slight mischievous streak that is kinda endearing. He needs to be the only pet in the home. He will require regular exercise to keep him happy and well balanced. Secure fenced yard required. Watch a TikTok video featuring Rowen below! https://www.tiktok.com/@happy.critter.ranch/video/7204912518278565163 NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved.

She gets along with all dogs of all sizes and will benefit from being in a home with other dogs that will show her the ropes and help her be the confident girl she deserves to be.  She doesn't pay any attention to the cats in her foster home. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 11, 2025, 1:21 pm
