Minnesota Pit Stop Rescue

Dog rescue in Winona, MN

We are passionate about animals and their people. We want to help keep animals in their homes by providing training and behavior services. For dogs that we take into rescue, we provide them with a loving, structured environment. When potential adopters apply to adopt, we do our best to educate and help them transition their new furry family member into their home. We are huge advocates for the Bully Breeds, and want to adopt out great breed ambassadors.

Rescue FAQs

Minnesota Pit Stop Rescue is located in Winona, MN along the Mississippi River and rolling bluffs. We are a small non-profit group that focuses on education, promoting the dog-human relationship, rescue, and adoption. We serve the Winona area, but in dogs from around the region, and we don't have adoption restrictions for distance other than we want adopters to meet the dog in person before adopting; we will not ship dogs.

Additional adoption info

Potential adopters are asked to fill out a short adoption application so that we can gather info to better match your lifestyle needs to dogs we may have available for adoption. Adoption fees vary per dog depending on how long we've had the dog, medical expenses, and training.
