Story
Here's Lucy!! ....and she's got some 'splaining to do! She'd like you to know that she's beautiful, smart, funny and all of that, but she plays catch like an major leaguer - and she will play until you are exhausted :) She came in as a stray on New Year's Day. She is a Senior gal, but don't tell her that - she just wants to have fun!! Lucy would love to join your family and seems to do fine with kids. She doesn't seem to care much for cats, so a home without kitties is probably best as far as Lucy is concerned! She keeps a fairly clean kennel here at the shelter, so should just need a bit of training in her new home to get used to the new set up and she'll be ready to get out in the yard and play ball!! All pets adopted from the Humane Society of Freeborn County will be spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, testing and will be microchipped. All of this is included in their adoption fee. Fill out an application to adopt at freeborncountyhs.org When transitioning your new pet home please allow for at least 4-6 weeks for your pet to adjust to their new home. They will need this time to decompress, and adjust to a new routine and environment. During that time we will provide check ins and counseling to ensure a successful transition. Please review all basic adoption requirements listed on our website before applying. We take finding the right homes for the animals in our care very seriously. They deserve nothing but the best! Please allow 2-7 days for applications to be processed. If an animal is listed in foster care, these pets are not at our facility, but are in foster care homes. They are still available for adoption, and meet and greets are done with pre-approved applicants only. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email at freeborncohumanesociety@gmail.com, send us a message on Facebook, or call or text 507-377-8501.

Story
Gunner is a great dog who isn't quite used to having little kids in his house. We recommend older children for him to be successful in a new home. Gunner is playful and loving. He gets along with other dogs but doesn't care for the cats much. Gunner is a bit of a parrot because he loves to lay on the back of whatever you're sitting on! He loves to be brushed and petted. :) You have to meet him to appreciate his quirky personality. Gunner has a bit of anxiety and would benefit from only having 1 other animal in the home or no other animals in the home. We feel he would also benefit from someone being home a majority of the time. He really is a good boy who just needs a chance to love someone. Gunner is microchipped and crate trained. He does howl once in a while in the night. :) Come meet him!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Marigold originally came to us in late 2022 when she was around 7 years old from our friends at the Rescue Network. Soon after she arrived at the shelter, she gave birth to 10 puppies and was a fantastic mom. She was adopted soon after she finished raising her litter and was very adored in her home. Sadly, her adopters' experienced a life changing event and had to make the heartbreaking decision to return her to us. Marigold is fully vetted, chipped, and her fee is $150. Marigold is now around 9 years old and is a healthy and fairly active lady. She is well mannered, pretty calm, and very loving. She loves to go for walks and does well on leash. Mostly, she just wants to be with people and to be someone's constant companion. She would like a home in which she is not left alone for long periods of time. She has done okay with well mannered dogs and children. We have no way of knowing about cats. Marigold would truly be a blessing to someone. She is a gem! NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications can be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. Keep an eye on your emails if you apply. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South. We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventative, and spayed or neutered.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 15, 2024, 4:52 pm

Story
Name: Bailey Age: 7 years Gender: Female Breed: German Shepherd mix Weight: 84 lbs Dog friendly: yes Cat friendly: yes Child friendly: yes Housetrained: yes Crate Trained: not needed and prefers to be left out  Energy level: Moderate Temperament: sweet, sidekick, loyal, intelligent Requirement: Not apartment appropriate  Adoption Fee: $275+tax To adopt, go to:   www.mendingspirits.org/apply-to-adopt.html   From the Foster Family: Bailey is a  marvelous dog who is also very smart, knows basic commands, and will even offer her paw for a friendly shake. She meshes well with our two dogs and has demonstrated that she's loyal, kind, and gentle. She walks politely on a leash, and quickly makes friends at the dog park too. Her backstory is sad because she was  rescued from a neighboring farm where she had been living in solute in a barn. When she first came to us, she was anxious and clingy from being left alone. She is now happy and healthy and loves others deeply. She currently is taking an allergy medication called Apoquel and doing well. She doesn’t need to be kenneled during the day or at night but would do well with someone home often.       October 16, 2024, 5:41 pm
