Story
Ryder is a sweet boy that we rescued about two years ago. He is perfect with people who give him his space until he trusts them. The issue is that he is very aggressive toward strainers and people that try to approach him other than our household members and a hand full of others. He will bite if he feels threatened, he has become a liability for our family due to the fact that in two years of training he still occasionally becomes aggressive out of the blue and will bite people. He is small so bites have caused minimal damage but we have children and their friends and our friends are have been bitten in some rare instances. He really is sweet and needs a companion to devote a lot of time. He is very attached to me but does not like any other men. He could be a great companion for an individual that lives alone and has a lot of time for snuggling and playing.

Story
I have been watching Wendy and her brother for a few months and the owner dumped them on me letting me know that they don't want her or her brother - Peter back. Wendy is around 8 years old, loves to cuddle and get pets, she loves people and car rides. She is food aggressive towards other dogs and freaks out when another dog is in her space. Wendy needs a home where she won't be ignored and feels safe with her brother because they are a bonded pair. She is very food motivated and since she's old she needs frequent potty breaks.

Story
Lola is such a sweet girl, we adopted her as a puppy. We thought we'd be able to accommodate a dog in our schedules but we just can't. Lola is such a good girl and deserves so much more attention than we can give her. She loves the kiddos and play time with other doggos, she's not much of a snuggler, but loves her pets and scratches. She loves being outside and playing ball.

Story
Whiskey is a great dog, he is an awesome companion dog. He has lots of energy but he can also cuddle. He is mostly potty trained but can have accidents if left alone for more than 8 hours. He is used to be kennel trained but we have not used it in a while, he sleeps in his own bed. He loves to go on walks and he is very active and does not like thunderstorms. He is very selective of food scraps and treats, he just like what he likes! He adores kids, any age. Does not like cats or small dogs, he might think they are toys or prey. Whiskey can jump very high! Therefore if you have a fence it needs to be 6 to 8 ft otherwise you will have to leash him to go outside. We are looking for someone that have time to spend with him and love him as a part of the family.

Story
Meet Ella, an adorable, 15yr old 9lb.Yorkie Girl being fostered near St. Paul, MN. Ella is doing great! She's losing weight nicely and is down to 7 lbs. We're working on a half pound weight loss to get her to a comfortable weight. The weight loss has helped her energy level, she's a playful, energetic little lady! She just had new blood work run to check her health progress, results should be back soon and we'll update when results are in! Donations for Ella's medical expenses would be greatly appreciated! Meanwhile, please email Ella's foster mom with any questions
