I adopted Tyson from the Tri County Humane Society last March. He's 8 years old, but plenty of energy. He loves to eat and is very affectionate and loves to play. Never a shred of aggression, he loves people. Great , friendly temperament. I'm moving out of state and can't take him.

Story
Junior was adopted at 4 months old. He is very active and at about 10 months old he is not neutered yet. He would benefit from this procedure. He is house trained and knows when to go potty outdoors. He does okay in crate, but would need to be let out every 4-5 hours. He is okay with children but would be best without other animals in the house. He does not like to share when it comes to his food and toys. We would like him to go to a loving home where he gets the attention he deserves and more training. Please reach out to me and we can discuss more.

Story
adopted four years ago from a shelter, no history, was skinny and unsocialized. He has done well learning to live in a house with people. Loves to be outside, enjoys playing with tennis balls/toys. He is an inside dog now and loves sleeping the couch. Will tolerate short periods of time in his kennel but does not like to be kenneled for very long - will cry and howl. Eats his meals in his kennel and uses a puzzle toy. He is protective of his food, will growl if other animals walk by while he is eating. Chases cats and will hurt them so should not live in a home with other cats. Has a strong prey drive and will chase anything small that runs, including dogs and children. He would do best in a home without other animals or small children. He loves treats, long walks, and belly rubs. Because of his strong prey drive, he walks best on using a head halter. He is a sweet boy that needs an experienced owner and a fenced yard for running.

Story
Ella Mae has arrived from Mexico! This sweet girl has had a tough life but is looking forward to a new beginning! She is so sweet & gentle natured. She's calm but loves to explore. She is looking forward to a slow retirement home filled with love! Age: 12 Breed:  Chi Mix Weight:  12 lbs Kid-friendly: Great with kiddos but she is shy so we recommend older kiddos. Dogs: She's pretty bossy so she would need a very tolerant dog. She likes to bark orders! Cats: Yes but again, bossy ;) Crate trained: Yes! Potty trained: Yes! Health concerns: She only has two teeth! Adoption fee: $175 As a rescue, we provide the care, procedures and testing that is available to us.      Adopters will be responsible for continued preventatives, follow-up appointments, and medications (if applicable). At times, adopters will be responsible for procedures not completed in rescue (dentals, bloodwork, etc.) Your new dog will receive their rabies and distemper vaccine. $50 discount for seniors (65+) and veterans. Adoption fees help pay for the dog's veterinary exam, vaccinations (rabies and distemper) HW test, a microchip, and spay/neuter if needed and additional health needs specific to each animal.  Grey Face Rescue does not adopt outside of Minnesota for now. We apologize for the inconvenience. We do not adopt animals to families whose current pets are not up-to-date on vaccinations or not altered. Exceptions may be made for medical reasons as stated by a veterinarian and we will require proof of that recommendation. Thank you for understanding our mission to reduce overpopulation.
