Luna

Hound (Unknown Type)

Female, 4 yrs 3 mos

Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Luna is a 4 yr old, 54# hound that came to us from a Reservation. She is calm, gentle, sweet, and shows her affection by giving you little kisses. She is housebroken - doesn’t ask to go out, but is put out 4 times/day; first thing in the morning, just before bedtime, and a couple times in between. Luna is so well behaved that she doesn’t need to be kenneled when left. A kennel is in the foster’s bedroom, and the door left open – at night, she will either sleep in bed with her foster mom or will go into the kennel on her own. Luna is very easy to have around, except for her prey drive (especially for rabbits – I wouldn't doubt she had to hunt for her own food on the Reservation, and she became quite skilled at it). Luna's best match might be someone that didn't go for walks, but perhaps went to the dog park or just exercised her in a fenced yard. If you are walking her, and she sees a bunny, or other critter, she goes after it. Now the foster keeps her on a long lead even when she goes out into the fenced yard (if you had a 5 ft fence or higher, you wouldn't need to keep her on a lead). Luna likes attention, but is not a pest. She knows the “sit” command and comes when called. No interest in toys; does play with the younger foster pup in the house. Luna would be fine as an only dog, or could be paired with another canine. Fine riding in the car – stayed in the back seat. We haven’t seen her interact with kids, but expect she would be good with kids 8 yr and up……….they should not have an expectation of play or walking her. Luna is quiet – seldom barks. She has been spayed, and is current on distemper and rabies vaccinations. The heartworm test and tick profiles are negative. Her microchip is registered to Second Chance. Luna has a $375 adoption fee. Call 651-771-5662 if you would like to meet her.

Liza

Schnauzer (Miniature)

Female, 1 yr 1 mo
White Bear Lake, MN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Lisa is a beautiful 9-12 month old schnauzer mix – she weighs 31#, and is pretty much full grown. Her adopter will need to ready the house for a puppy, because she is still learning house manners. She likes to chew on bones, toys, your socks and shoes (with a preference for shoes – you need to pick them up so she can’t get them). When you leave, she must be kenneled. Lisa is active and energetic – she jumps to greet and will need to learn the polite way of greeting people. She can’t help it………….she likes everyone. Playful with other dogs, and her ideal home would have another playful pooch and a fenced yard for them to romp in (she respects the 4 ft fence). Lisa comes when called, but still needs to learn all the other basic commands. She is very alert to her surroundings (even what’s going on at the neighbor’s house), and tends to bark in excitement. The foster uses compressed air (called Pet Corrector) for correction and it is effective in quieting her. Because of the barking she wouldn’t do well in any housing that shares a wall with another family. Lisa can entertain herself with toys if nobody will play with her. She is housebroken IF you take her directly outside first thing in the morning when she is taken out of her kennel, every 4-6 hours during the day, and at bedtime before being put in her kennel overnight. Lisa won’t do her business on leash, so she really needs a fenced yard; a canine companion to be her playmate and mentor would be welcomed. We have not seen Lisa interact with children, but expect she would be fine with kids 8 and up – mature enough to keep their valuables out of her reach. Lisa is spayed, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $450 . Call 651-0771-5662 if you would like to meet this wonderful puppy.

Story
Meet Milo, an adorable 13-year-old senior dog! Milo and Daphne came into rescue as their previous owner passed away. Although he might be a bit older, Milo still has lots of love and affection to give to his forever family. He would be the most successful in a home with no cats, dogs, and with a fence, preferably a privacy fence. He does not jump fences, but does bark and growl at other dogs so it would be best if he does not have to interact with other dogs. Milo is the perfect companion for someone looking for a more low-key, yet affectionate dog.He loves to cuddle and snuggle. He is used to being alone at home. Milo is very loyal and will stick by your side through thick and thin. He would do best in a calm and quiet home where he can take life at his own pace. Milo may have a hard time getting along with other dogs, but he's sure to steal your heart with his charming personality and loving nature! He is not a fan of fireworks and thunderstorms so he does have an anti-anxiety medication he takes as needed. *More information and photos added over time.

Story
Magdalena is not just any dog; she is a testament to the resilience and the unwavering spirit of a survivor. This beautiful 5-year-old Labrador mix has faced challenges that would have deterred many, yet her spirit remains unbroken and her heart full of love. Magdalena's journey has been a tough one. Due to a human-caused incident, she tragically lost one of her legs and, heartbreakingly, her puppies as well. Despite these hardships, Magdalena has shown incredible strength and determination to heal both physically and emotionally. The last picture was taken during her early healing stages, you can see her courageously taking each step forward, supported by her indomitable spirit. Today, Magdalena is fully healed and ready to embark on a new chapter of her life - one filled with love, compassion, and the security of a forever home. Her gentle demeanor and loving nature shine through every interaction. Magdalena adores human companionship and has a special affinity for belly rubs and leisurely walks. She is known for her playful antics and happy face. Magdalena's ideal home would be one where she is cherished as a member of the family and the only dog in the home. She does well with dogs her size or bigger but hasn't been around small dogs much and doesn't do well with smaller dogs. She has also never been around cats but given her reaction to small dogs, she probably would do best in a home without cats. She thrives on affection and is eager to return it tenfold. Whether it's snuggling on the couch or exploring the great outdoors, Magdalena is up for any adventure as long as she's by your side. If you're ready to open your heart to a dog who has overcome adversity with grace and love, Magdalena is waiting to meet you. Help us give this incredible survivor the happy ending she deserves - a forever home filled with kindness, warmth, and the promise of a brighter tomorrow. Could you be the one to give Magdalena the loving home she's been waiting for? Reach out today to meet this special dog and discover the joy she can bring to your life.

Beau will be 2 in February. He is a fixed German Shephard / Siberian Husky Mix. Treat Trained. Knows commands. Can be vocal around new people but acclimates fairly quickly and stays quiet.

Active pretty guy who is very gentle, loves cheese, toys, peanut butter, and belly scratches. He e is crate trained, house trained, and has multiple beds & toys we can provide. He loves walks or running in a fenced yard, and horseplay. Due to a progressing cancer diagnosis, we need to find him a loving forever home asap.
