My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***Tarzan is one of the 12 Dogs of Christmas, so his adoption fee is fully sponsored until 12/31/24!

Turn on `You`ll Be in My Heart` by Phil Collins while you read about Tarzan! The king of the shelter is a 4-year-old hound mix who has an upbeat attitude and energy that will keep you active and entertained! He loves to run and play with people and the other big dogs at the shelter. He`s an endlessly sweet boy who will stare up at you in admiration if you`re willing to scratch his ears. Tarzan is a smart boy who`s learned `sit,` `down,` and `up for hugs`! While Tarzan loves other dogs and his people, he can feel a little insecure and unsafe when they approach his food, so he`s looking for a family willing to feed him in a separate space and provide him with the feeling of security he needs!

Tarzan is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

More about this shelter

OUR MISSION

We strive to ensure a safe, healthy, and loving environment that will provide temporary shelter for abandoned, stray, and surrendered animals and to find each animal a new and prosperous home.
The Babinski Foundation is a private 501c3 animal shelter located in Pequot Lakes, MN. We are a safe place to surrender dogs and cats. We also are a stray drop-off facility for stray cats and dogs.

OUR STORY

The Babinski Foundation was established in 2010 by Donald and Elizabeth Babinski owners and founders of Babinski Properties which owns multifamily housing in Minnesota, Florida and South Dakota. He and his wife Elizabeth were working tirelessly to get the animal shelter opened which was their dream, but Donald Babinski passed away August 11th, 2014 before the shelter could open. Elizabeth continued where they left off and the Foundation opened in January 2016 in Pequot Lakes, MN. Elizabeth passed away on November 13th, 2020. Donald and Elizabeth’s dream was finally realized, and Donald and Elizabeth’s surviving family and friends will continue to work hard to fulfill their mission.
