My story

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

Meet four year old Chili. What can we say, when your owner decides they are just bored of you and threaten to shoot you because they no longer care about you....Well thankfully Rescue does care, and that is exactly what rescue is all about. Not just one Rescue in particular, but a team of Rescues and volunteers working together to change the fate of one life for the better! How does that saying go by Karen Davison? "Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever." Chili's life is worth it, and hopefully she will bring happiness into another home.

Enough about that, let's get to Chili!! This beautiful 4 year old standard sized Australian Shepherd is spayed, housetrained, has been around children, and is overall friendly. She has been around a cat, however she does not like little dogs. With this being said it would probably be best to be in a home without a cat. However, she does get along with dogs her own size and bigger. Chili will be up to date on vaccinations before she goes to her furever home, and will also be microchipped. If you are looking for that wonderful companion, no need to look any further!! Apply for Chili soon to join your home and give her a new leash on life!

Meet and greets will take place in a public setting along with the adoption if compatible. Dogs can be met in Ada, MN weekday and weekends, or in our alternate office location in Maple Grove, MN on weekends only.

More about this rescue

NWMNAR is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt non-profit rescue on a 6 acre ranchette located approximately 10 miles east of Ada, nestled in on low traffic gravel roads where the owners of NWMNAR reside. The story of NWMNAR began in 2008 where it all started with just one dog-Australian Shepherd of course, named Smokey whom joined the family back in 2002 when he needed to find a new home or otherwise be euthanized prior to finding us. He was an exceptional Aussie and devoted to us. Upon his passing in 2008 his owners realized more dogs like him in shelters and other situations needed a chance to find the right furever home, thus NWMNAR began and made it their mission statement to find loving furever homes for Aussies in need, thus saving many from euthanization. NWMNAR prides itself in lining up the right personalities of dogs to the right living situations. Puppies of course are easier to line up since their personalities form in amongst a family. However, the adult dogs are evaluated for the right match in a family. Often times an adopter may want to adopt an Aussie of one color verses the other, but that may not mean that specific dog is a good match for the living situation. We take careful steps to encourage the right home by reviewing applications. Not only do we help find loving homes for dogs in need, we offer constructive advice to families thinking about surrendering their dogs and give them tips on how to make their homes a successful Aussie home.
