Whether you’re heading out for a hike, a car ride or just a walk around the neighborhood, he’ll be right there by your side. When it’s time to relax, he’s just as happy to snuggle up on the couch, rest his head on your lap & keep you company until you’re ready to get moving again. Seamus is unique in his focus on his humans. He looks to his fosters for cues, and has been extremely easy to train. He has a strong desire to please. That said, he also enjoys playing with his foster siblings (see video with the Newfoundland) and can entertain himself (see the other video for a demonstration of his ball skills)! Seamus didn’t have the easiest start in life, and was found in a field in Missouri, living independently. As a result, he is shy at first. In his foster home, he has thrived, returning many times over the love and affection he is given. If you think he might be the right fit for you, come meet him and let’s see! Adoption fee: $495.00

Good with dogs,

Story

Age: Approximately 3 years old Weight: 9 lbs Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Unknown Kid friendly: Unknown Potty trained: Unknown Crate trained: Unknown Kylie is a shy, sweet, super submissive beautiful girl who was rescued from a commercial breeding operation, so she is quite fearful of new things. She does very well in a home with one person, likely female, and at least one dog to help her build confidence by teaching her how to dog. Her personality is goofy and playful and so silly, but she'll only bring that out when she's comfortable enough to do so. She needs a securely fenced in yard with preferably a small safe place to go outside for potty breaks throughout the day. She is good with potty training on a schedule, is quiet in a crate, but isn't ready for leash walking yet. The big world is a scary place for her. She really is the sweetest little thing and she doesn't have a mean bone in her body, but life hasn't been kind to her and she's just learning about what a normal dog is like. If you've got extra love in your heart to give, this is a girl that not only needs it but she will eventually give it back tenfold. If you think you might be the one to show Kylie how much love there is for her, please fill out an application to meet her. Adoption fee $695

Helen

Australian Shepherd/Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, Puppy

Rochester, MN

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story

Meet Helen! At only about 5 mos old, she has had a tough run at life so far, and is extremely wary of humans as a result. Helen is very skittish and would do best in a quiet home with older, dog savvy children. Another dog in the home as well as a fenced in yard is a must for Helen as she continues to learn how to be confident. Her personality really starts to come out when she is running and wrestling with other dogs, but she spends most of her time in hiding when people are around. Helen loves to play on her own with toys and bones, and you will often find a hoard in her kennel. As a puppy, she does have chewing tendencies, but does ok with redirection. Helen does great in a kennel overnight and during the day. Her kennel is her safe spot and is highly recommended for her. She has been spending most of her time in foster care adjusting to life with nice humans, so she has not had any obedience training. She would do well with some puppy training classes to help her learn obedience and build confidence in her person/people. Helen will walk behind you on a leash but freezes when things startle her. She will need some leash training as well. She has done pretty well with potty training, but has no cues when she needs to go out, and has had a few accidents. Her favorite food is hotdogs, and she can be bribed for a quick hand sniff and possible finger lick with those in hand. She has also been spotted sitting across the couch from her foster family as she gets more comfortable. Helen is looking for a patient and quiet family who will give her the space, love, and training required to set her up the right way for the rest of her life. Adoption fee is $300 plus tax.

Moses D16136

Australian Shepherd

Male, Puppy

Minnetonka, MN

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Story

Hi! I'm Moses! I'm from Missouri. PUPDATE FROM FOSTER: Moses is very sweet and playful. He's kennel-trained & has mostly been using pee pads for pottying when he goes in the house. Each time I've taken him outside to potty though, he squats almost immediately and pees. He's definitely had a little training, both inside & outside. He's easy to have around. He's quiet most of the time. I've now heard him give a big-boy bark just twice. Once was for... I have no idea. And once was when he was startled by a noise (I think?). He loves my dogs & reallllly wants to play with them. Moses is working on feeling less afraid when I have to reach for him to get him out of his kennel. He's loving treats as well as a fun toy or two that I'll use to lure him closer to the door of the kennel, and then eventually out into the world to play, or to be cuddled. In the evening, he loves to be held while we watch TV, and he loves to be as close to the other dogs as they will allow. I'd love him to have a little more freedom to play & be silly, and to not be at risk of being chased by the one dog who's just not havin' it. Moses is highly portable , at about 11#, and loves to be included in any not-too-scary adventures you're having. Previous Update: Moses is 10-15#, 5 month old mini Australian Shepherd mix. He is an adorable, silly little guy who is learning and experiencing lots of new things. He takes a few days to warm up to humans, but loves dogs. He now loves to be held, but it still takes a little bit of work to get him to come out of his kennel so you can pick him up. Moses has done better with a harness than with a leash attached to a collar, but all of those are still new to him, and cause him to leap and pull away. On a few trips out into my yard, he tried to melt into the side of my house or shed, very afraid of the leas and the world out there. He liked sniffing the air and looking all around. He is sad and vocal when both his humans and resident dogs leave the room. He does not like to be alone and will try to get out of his exercise pen. Moses will be OK with considerate, quieter, gentle kids who will enjoy holding and snuggling with him. Any resident dogs should be tolerant and gentle. Moses lacks social skills and has no awareness of how much is too much. He jumps all over any dog he's interested in and doesn't pick up on cues to back off. I think he might enjoy play once he figures it out! He's got a great play-bow and full-body crawl/drag across the floor to get near you. He is good in a crate and goes in easily. It's his safe space. He is working on potty training and is familiar with pee pads. He is a good eater and is learning what treats are all about. He has accidentally squeaked a couple of toys and thought they were pretty fun. He sleeps in his crate at night with his teddy bear. He will cry to be let out to go potty, anywhere from zero to two times during the night. He does best if his crate is in the room with you, and on the bed next to you if possible. He's a very sweet boy and he's ready to learn so much!

Story

Hi, my name is Lou Lou. I am from Minnesota. Found as a severely emaciated stray in Minneapolis, Lou Lou has made an incredible recovery and is now ready to find her forever home. Lou Lou adores people and is always eager to make new friends. However, she's still learning not to jump, so a family willing to work on this with her would be ideal. Lou Lou is a playful soul who absolutely loves squeaker and crinkle toys. She would make an excellent walking or running buddy, as she loves to be outside with you. One of Lou Lou's best qualities is her ability to get along with other dogs, both big and small. She loves to play and is always up for a good romp in the yard or a playdate at the park. Lou Lou is also a cuddle bug and enjoys nothing more than snuggling up with her human companions. Lou Lou is crate trained and sleeps well in her crate. She also understands that outside is the place to potty, although she may need more frequent potty breaks due to her history of severe emaciation, we are already seeing an increase in how long she can hold it though so this should continue to improve. If you're looking for a loving, energetic, and resilient companion, Lou Lou could be the perfect match for you. Come meet this special girl and give her the loving home she deserves! Special Note: Lou Lou has a keen nose for food due to not having enough as a stray and may attempt to counter surf or dig in the trash if she smells something delicious. It's important to secure food and trash bins to prevent any food-related escapades!

Story

Hi! My name is Rocky and I am from a shelter in Arkansas. From my foster : Rocky is a super sweet, cuddly, goofy little guy! He loves everyone he meets and he steals hearts very easily! He knows basic commands, but is still working on being more polite. He is very trainable with treats! He does great in his kennel overnight. He is the best little buddy and can't wait to find his furever home!! He loves playing with our resident dog and would do great with another dog in the home. He also is an A+ superstar at doggy daycare! He does need a home that can give him great structure as he has a compulsion for water and tends to urinate a lot. We measure his water intake daily to control his urine output. Frequent scheduled potty breaks through out the day works well for him. From the Vet: Hi! My name is Rocky and I am on the lookout for a special furever home with an active and consistent routine! I have been struggling with a lot of overactive and compulsive need to be drinking water causing increased urination. The Bond Between vets have completed several tests to make sure that I am otherwise healthy particularly in regards to my urine/kidney health. No abnormalities were found on my test results therefore the vet believes this increased thirst and urination is due to a behavioral cause. Environmental enrichment and lots of activities like exercise, play time, training etc. will be crucial to my success in my new home! During one of my appointments the vet drained a mass on my side, however since then the cytology of the mass showed no concern and the mass has not grown in size. My adopters should monitor for this and any other masses that may occur in the future and consult a primary care veterinarian for further guidance on my care.
