Story
Hi! My name is Nascar and I'm looking for a loving home to call my own! I am 1 year old and I've been at the shelter since September 14.I'm a happy, energetic, bouncy lil buddy that loves to make new friends! I love to ZOOM (hence my name) and sniff around the yards, play with bones and toys, and hang with my favorite people!My ideal home would be very active and committed to getting my energy out! I'm a very smart boy and already know some basic commands, but I still need some help with my manners (I just get so excited I need to JUMP about it!) so I'll need someone who will continue with basic training. I previously lived with a cat, I loved to chase her! It didn't seem aggressive, just playful, but the cat was not a fan of that. It is unknown how I would do living with children or other dogs.If you are interested in adopting me, please visit Animal Allies at 4006 Airport Road or you can call the Adoption Team at 218-722-5341 as early as 10:30 AM and place a nonrefundable $25 hold towards my adoption fee to put you first in-line to adopt!

Hi! My name is Chunk and I'm looking for a loving home to call my own! I am 6 months old and I've been back at the shelter since 11/8/25.I'm a happy bouncing baby boy that loves to run and play! Once I get all my zoomies out I love to snuggle up to my favorite humans! I love playing with other dog friends, but not all of them appreciate my high energy.My ideal home would be active and willing to help me with basic training. I still have a LOT of puppy energy I need help getting rid of and am eager to learn my manners and be the best boy I can be! I would do best in a home with older kids as I am pretty jumpy and might knock over little ones!If you are interested in adopting me, please visit Animal Allies at 4006 Airport Road or you can call the Adoption Team at 218-722-5341 as early as 10:30 AM and place a nonrefundable $25 hold towards my adoption fee to put you first in-line to adopt!
