Story
Angie is an affectionate 1 1/2 year old pup who will love her people with all her heart. She is always smiling and happy to come along on any adventure. Angie thinks she is a lap dog and will crawl up to snuggle if you let her and often leans in against you leg to be petted. She is housetrained and walks pretty well on the leash. She would also make a great walking or jogging partner. Angie is currently being fostered in Lakeville for a 501c3 rescue and has now been fully vetted and spayed. She enjoys playing with dog toys, especially rope bones and is a very smart dog. She's looking for a home with an active person to take her for daily walks. Please email for more information on how to adopt this gorgeous dog.

Story
My wife & I got Bella when she was 6 weeks old in the fall of 2016. We did basic training with her, so she is fully potty trained & can sit. We soon realized I have a strong allergy to dogs (I tested positive twice). We made alterations in our home for my allergies & Bella. However, fast forward to now since having a newborn, Bella is still hyperactive & needs attention as she still did as a puppy. We just do not have the time to put towards Bella now with a newborn & that's only going to continue. I am also nervous with Bella's energy levels about being near our newborn, as a dad that makes me constantly nervous for our newborn. And especially with my dog allergy, I can't be exposing myself to more allergies. Bella is a good dog though, she just needs owners who will give her the time and attention she needs & wants since she loves to play.

Story
Mia is technically a senior dog, as she is just over 8 years old, but her energy & drive are not typical senior dog behaviors. She's 1/2 German Shepherd and 1/2 black lab. I have had her since she was 3 months old, but due to major events in my life over the past 3 years I am no longer the best owner for her (including a new job where I will start traveling for work extensively in April). She deserves better. She's wary of strangers, not a fan of small children that are unpredictable, has lived with cats (but is always wanting to chase them), and is not a fan of other dogs. She has gone to daycare/boarding her entire life and is fine there, but would rather just be off looking for and chasing squirrels and rabbits vs. playing with other dogs. She is also a bit of a resource guard with food/chews, but just with other dogs, never with me. She is extremely smart and has been through basic obedience training. She is also a good running partner.

Story
Bella is a playful, energetic, loving, obedient, people-loving, cuddle dog. We adopted her from Hennepin County Humane Society about 6 years ago when she was estimated to be about 1 1/2 years old and in good health. She was spayed and had at least one litter of puppies prior to this. Since then she has been a member of our family and the "nanna" dog to our daughter since the day she was born. Bella knows all basic dog commands and is obedient.. She is food-motivated, and will get overweight VERY quickly if overfed. She will occasionally chew out of anxiety if left alone, so we put her in the laundry room when away during the day. She runs about 30mph at max speed (not kidding). We are moving to Hawaii in July and Bella needs a home with someone who will really love her. Ideal to have a fenced yard since she does run away outside (always returns, she likes to chase squirrels). Dog park visits help get out her energy. I take her for 5-7 mile runs 3x/week when its above 40 outside.

Story
Winston came to join my dog Sophie and I when my niece bought a townhouse and had too many animals. He is so adorable and likes Sophie and I, so we decided to try. Winston is very afraid of strangers and other dogs. He will warm up to people if left alone and allowed to approach at his own pace. Once Winston likes you...he is absolutely adorable!! I've had a professional trainer come to the house to work with him and she is very willing to provide her files on him. His other issue is with being housebroken. He wears a diaper day and night, but is usually dry when I get home from work. My thoughts, and the trainer's, are that if he were to be in a quiet neighborhood (mine is much too active with people and dogs) with a fenced in back yard, the only dog in the home and someone was home most of the time, he would be perfect!! Winston is cuddly, playful and affectionate but this isn't the right place for him. I love this little guy!
