Story
Meet London 🇬🇧🐾 Tiny body. Big attitude. Unlimited cuddles. London is a Toy/Mini Aussie with main-character energy packed into a pint-sized frame. Born on November 16, 2025, he proudly held the title of runt of the litter—and clearly decided early on that small does not mean shy. This little guy is overflowing with confidence, charm, and just the right amount of sass. Don’t let his size fool you—London knows exactly who he is. He’s playful, bold, and has a funny habit of grabbing pant legs to say, “Hey! Let’s go!” Because of this, he’ll thrive in a home committed to structured training and consistency (he’s smart and eager, so this will be fun for both of you). ✨ Why you’ll fall in love: Confident, cuddly, and full of personality Uses the potty tray like a pro Loves lap naps and cozy snuggle sessions Runt-sized body with superstar energy Equal parts mischief and melt-your-heart sweetness London is looking for a family who appreciates a little sass with their snuggles and is ready to help him grow into the well-mannered, confident companion he’s meant to be. If you’re searching for a tiny Aussie with a big heart, bold spirit, and excellent cuddle skills, London is ready to steal your lap—and your heart. 💙🐶 ******************************************** All dogs of NWMNAR are screened at the headquarters in Ada, Mn until they are vetted.

Story
Meet Aurora 💫 Born on 11/16/25, Aurora is a beautiful Mini/Toy Aussie with a big personality packed into a tiny package. She’s a sassy girl with a dominant, confident personality who loves to play and can easily keep up with her siblings—but when she’s had enough, she isn’t shy about letting the persistent ones know she’s done and putting them in their place. Aurora also has a sweet, people-oriented side. When playtime winds down, she’s perfectly happy to step away from the chaos and spend quality time hanging out with her humans. Her confidence, independence, and affection make her a wonderful mix of fun and companionship. If you’re looking for a Mini/Toy Aussie with spunk, leadership, and a love for human attention, Aurora may be the perfect addition to your family. 💕 ********************************************* All dogs of NWMNAR are screened at the headquarters in Ada, Mn until they are vetted.

Story
Hi, I’m Ramona. A very spunky, feisty and cuddly multicolored pup with gorgeous eyes!! I’m fun pretty much all the way around, I love to play with all kinds of toys, love to play with dogs twice my size, I even try to make friends with cats but they don’t care for me. I’m spunky because I love to talk when I play. I’m feisty because I don’t let big dogs intimidate me, they rough house with me and I do it right back (silly goose’s didn’t expect my little self to be as courages as I am!!) I’m also very cuddly when it comes time to wind down and go to sleep, I will fall asleep by your shoulder or near the bottom of your legs. I love to play, eat and play some more. I’m currently learning sit too, I’m told I’m smart! My favorite thing at the moment are chew bones too! Ready for me to spice up your life? Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
This handsome fellow and his siblings came in to rescue last winter after they were dumped on a back country road. Their mother was found deceased, so we took the puppies in to try to save them. They were very sick initially but are very healthy now. Big boy is a gentle boy but does love to run and play with other dogs. Big boy was the largest of the puppies, but his siblings have caught up to him. He has done amazing with his house and crate training. He is so deserving of a wonderful home to call his own. He is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC. Please let me know if you have any questions. Please email us for the link to the adoption application (His adoption fee is only to cover transport and health certificate to travel to another state.)

Story
Odin is a 6 year old, neutered male black bi Australian Shepherd. He is 37 pounds, housebroke, good with cats, and likes people. He does pull on leash some, is well mannered in the house and can sit, down and shake. Odin is currently living in a foster with 6 other dogs with no issues. Odin was a transfer from a shelter in Iowa due to the fact that he has issues with body handling and needed some work in cooperative care to get him comfortable with grooming and vet visits. His foster has worked on muzzle training and desensitizing him to brushing. Odin is very treat motivated and loves his training sessions on the grooming table. All grooming except nail trimming can now be done with no drama. The details: Needs fence: no, has a great recall Good with dogs: yes, actively avoids conflict in house with 6 other dogs. Good with cats: yes Good with kids: Older kids would be fine. All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers. We need an approved application on file to set up a meeting with a dog you might be interested in. You can find our application at www.aussierescuemn.com. All dogs have an adoption fee of $400 plus MN sales tax. We pride ourselves on matches that are awesome for both the dog and your family. Aussie Rescue of MN is here for support, advice and as a safety net for our dogs for the rest of their lives

Story
Meet Marti! Marti is a 7 year old, neutered, double merle, male, who came to us almost completely feral. He is a slightly pudgy 40 pounds, crate trained, house broke and easy to live with. As he is double merle he has some vision issues and he doesn't like change and will bark a lot when strange people come to his house. Marti will need a very special owner that is willing to give him plenty of time to learn to trust. At his foster home Marti gets along with other dogs, is great with cats, and walks off leash in a rural setting. Marti is that lower energy aussie everyone's looking for and would like a quiet home. Marti will need more training in cooperative Care which his foster is working on and is easy to implement. At this time we take Marti in to the vet for a sedated groom and nail trim every 6 months. ARM is willing to pay for that for the first year of his adoption. The details: Needs Fence: Depends on setting (needs to gain trust to be leashed, fence necessary in busier area) Good With Dogs: Yes Good With People: Needs patience Good with cats: Yes All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers. We need an approved application on file to set up a meeting with a dog you might be interested in. You can find our application at www.aussierescuemn.com. All dogs have an adoption fee of $400 plus MN sales tax. We pride ourselves on matches that are awesome for both the dog and your family.
