Story
Meet Wiki! Wiki is a 6-month-old female GSD/Lab/Pitty mix with a sleek black coat, hints of brown, a white chest, and adorable white-speckled toes. She currently weighs about 25 lbs and is expected to be a medium-sized dog (26–60 lbs) when fully grown. With her soft fur and full-body wiggle butt, she’s impossible not to smile at!Wiki is a shy, gentle puppy who is still learning that the world, and humans, can be safe and kind. She didn’t have much human contact early in life, so she’s nervous when meeting people and takes time to warm up. Once she feels safe, though, she’ll quietly ask for pets, lick your hand, or leap into bed to snuggle up close. She truly blossoms with patience, consistency, and love.She is about 85% potty trained and uses the dog door well, though she may have occasional accidents when she feels nervous. Wiki is fully crate trained and does excellent in her kennel, it’s her safe space and where she goes when she needs comfort. She has normal puppy energy but is overall fairly calm.She loves toys, follows her resident dog closely (especially on leash), and learns a lot by watching the other dogs around her. A securely fenced yard is a must, as Wiki can be a flight risk when scared and needs a safe space to adjust to her new home.Wiki would do best in a calm, patient home, ideally with another dog, where she can continue building confidence at her own pace. With the right family, this sweet, snuggly girl is going to absolutely shine. If you are interested in Wiki, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $450. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. Due to post-adoption services provided, we prefer to adopt within a 150-mile radius of the Twin Cities. However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.

Story
So you need to put ME on YOUR RADAR!! Cause I am AVAILABLE to be your newest bestest fren, EVER!!! So, by now you know my name but do you know my game??? I am a GORGEOUS black lab/shepherd mix with a sad story to tell... but like ALL sad stories, I HAVE A HAPPY ENDING (so far:) But I am looking for the family who will cherish me furever and I think that is YOU! You look pretty smart and put together... and that is WHY you want to adopt me! I was found in a neighborhood, wandering in the blistering heat as well as the "colder" weather (40's in San Antonio is REALLY COLD :D And the lady who took time to feed me and gain my trust was the same lady who saved me! She knew that I was a GOOD dog, just looking for someone to save me from the streets and give me HOPE for a better life. No one really knows my back story, but some things are obvious.... I am smart and sensitive to new environments, I am sweet and CUDDLY, I am LOVING being back in a home and have been potty trained since minute one.... I love my unstuffed toys and carry my "baby" around all day. I am a mess with fireworks or other loud- end of the world- kind of stuff. I am not a huge fan of bathing but LOVE a great car ride!! I am learning all kinds of cool things here, the most important thing is I am loved!!! So if you want to continue the lessons, come and adopt me!! I am waiting!! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
