My story

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

Timon is a lovable 2-year-old GSD/Pit Mix who is ready to find his forever home. This sweet boy was showing signs of resource guarding, and a history of being under socialized and not neutered. But with patience and care, Timon has made incredible progress!

After spending some time in a loving foster home to decompress and undergo neutering, Timon has blossomed into a friendly, well-adjusted pup. He now lives happily with 7 foster dogs and 2 cats, getting along beautifully with everyone and showing no signs of aggression. While Timon can take a little time to warm up to new people-understandable given his past-he's a loyal and affectionate companion once he feels comfortable.

Timon is crate trained, house trained (although he might do a little happy tinkle when excited), and he rarely barks. He's a calm, quiet presence in the home who loves being around his pack. Timon would thrive in a patient home where he can continue building trust and enjoying all the love he deserves.

If you're looking for a sweet, loyal companion who will appreciate your patience and kindness, Timon may be the perfect fit for you!

Additional adoption info

Northern Lakes Rescue wants to make adopting your next pet the best experience you have in adopting a pet. When you see a animal you are interested, in we encourage you to email us at info@northernlakesrescue.org with what dog you are interested in.

NLR is 100% volunteer run, and we do our best to respond within 48 hours to all email inquiries regarding adoptions.

All adoptions will require an application, home visit, personal and vet references and a meet and greet. Our adoption fees range from $300-425 depending on the dog.
All dogs over 6 months of age will be spay/neutered, vaccinated to age and micro-chipped. Puppies being adopted will require a spay/neuter and vaccine contract.

Finalizing an adoption includes signing a contract and paying the adoption fee.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Northern Lakes Rescue is foster based so all dogs are being fostered by amazing volunteers across the state of MN. Because of this, we require all meet and greets to be scheduled after an application is submitted.

Our focus after you apply is to get you scheduled to meet the dog within 3 to 7 days.

More about this rescue

Our Vision is to be a voice for those who are voiceless. We hear them with our hearts and give them a voice. Looking into the eyes of a rescued animal will speak volumes; watching those eyes light up will have an everlasting impact on you and the rescued animals.

We aren’t a typical rescue as we don’t take in dogs and put them in kennels until they’re adopted. All dogs we rescue are placed in loving foster homes that teach them to be the best dog they can be.

Our journey doesn’t end with adoption, either. We are here for you to support you in integrating your new member into your home, cheer new triumphs, and help with struggles.
