Story
Location: Ruthton, MN Hey there! My name is Joni and I am the sweetest girl you'll ever meet! When I'm playing with other dogs I sometimes turn into a feisty little girl (foster mom says I'm all bark, no bite - whatever that means)! My dream home would be one that comes with a lot of cuddles, treats, and playing outside! I am happiest when I'm playing outside! If you're willing to play with me, we are going to be best friends! My foster mom says I would do best with an active family or another doggy sibling to play with! I love dogs and people of all ages! However, I do like to play a little rough with cats. So, it'd be best if I go to a home with only dogs or with dog savvy cats that can get away from me if I'm playing too rough. They're just so much fun! I'm still getting used to being away from foster mom. She keeps putting me in this thing called a playpen? Weird but whatever! I am quiet during the day and I sleep soundly throughout the night; however, once I hear your alarm clock I will let you know that I am awake! I love playing with toys and chasing my furry friends around! I am also very treat motivated and I love learning new tricks. I am so excited to meet you and I am ready to find my forever home! ---------- The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org).

Story
Location: Marion, SD My name is Peyton and I'm ready to meet my forever family! I'm calm and timid at first but become a goofy and outgoing girl once I warm up to you. I'm still learning how to dog, I don't know how to play yet. When I get excited, I don't know what to do with my paws and they just go crazy and there's no controlling them. Please make sure I have supervision around young children because I can't always contain my excitement. I am unsure about cats so far but like other dogs as long as they aren't too up in my face. I love snuggles and I make the cutest sounds when I yawn! I have a good amount of energy so I'm looking for a large yard or someone who will be very active with me. I'm house trained and partially kennel trained. I know how to sit but I'm still learning other commands. --------------- The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org).

Abel

German Shepherd Dog Labrador Retriever

Male, Adult
Princeton, MN
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Abel is affectionate, playful, smart, and obedient. He's also house-trained and a loyal companion who loves to cuddle, especially with his head on your lap, and is always ready for belly rubs. Abel enjoys a solid 10 hours of sleep, as long as you’re right there sleeping, too. He settles beautifully after a 5-10 minute romp with a ball or frisbee, a game of hide-and-seek, or a nice walk filled with plenty of sniffing and marking. And while he might pull a bit (okay, maybe a lot) on his walks, he’s well-mannered in the home. He even knows a few tricks and performs with or without treats! You can trust Abel to be calm and content when left out of his kennel for several hours—his longest solo time was seven hours, and he simply rested and kept watch for any "dangerous" Amazon trucks. Abel would love a home without kids or other animals, where he can relax without being disturbed during meals. He’s independent about his space and prefers not to be poked or prodded. When grandkids or visitors are over, he happily hangs out in the bedroom if needed. Truly, Abel is an easygoing guy who’s ready to bring so much love to the right home. He has a few quirks, but don’t we all?   Abel does take an oral medication twice a day to help prevent seizures.    Abel is from an owner surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an   adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Amara! Also known as Mama, Amara is a gorgeous and affectionate sweetheart who loves being near her people. She’s happiest by your side, keeping you company as she relaxes on the couch or curls up at your feet. While not a lapdog, she’s full of love, affection, and plenty of kisses to share! Amara thrives in a home where her humans spend lots of time with her and are ready to give her the exercise and mental stimulation she enjoys. This clever girl is a fetch champion (here is video proof) and has even mastered basic commands, proving she’s eager to please and quick to learn. Here is another video of her playing with a ball. She’s made great progress walking politely on a leash, sitting at intersections during walks, and responding well to redirection. Amara also loves running and exploring new sights and smells, making her an ideal companion for an active household. She’s motivated by praise and affection, with a playful, loving energy that makes her a joy to be around. Amara has lived with other dogs before and has shown she can co-exist with proper introductions and patience. She’s currently working on meeting new dogs and is already making strides in her foster home. While she’d love being the center of attention as the only pet, she could potentially live with another dog in the right environment. Amara isn’t a fan of cats and hasn’t yet met children, but her sweet and gentle nature suggests she’d do well with kiddos. Amara does have some separation anxiety and can be vocal if she knows her people are close but out of reach. However, she’s perfectly well-behaved when left to free roam while you’re out and doesn’t engage in any destructive behaviors. With regular exercise, clear boundaries, and lots of love, she’s sure to continue building her confidence and adjusting to new situations. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and active companion, Amara is ready to meet you and show off her endless charm and sweet personality! Amara is from Owner Surrender.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Puppernickel was found stray on a local reservation with a serious leg injury. It was later found he had severe nerve damage & was unable to use his leg at all. Despite all this, he is an absolute dream of a puppy. So loving & happy to see you even if he saw you 5 min ago! I think he has some sort of an abusive history as he does piddle when he is interacting with people. It is getting better with age & good experiences with people. It's just important to know that he needs some understanding as he improves. He loves plushy toys, food & head scratches. He is about 99% potty pad trained & when taken outside, knows to potty. He is getting his leg amputate soon, and I am so excited for him to feel more free to run & play. He is gentle with my children, good with cats/kittens & does well with dogs when in his kennel. He just lets out some warning growls that he doesn't want his special things taken away. I know this will go away the more he is shown consistency & that these new things in life won't be taken away from him.   Puppernickel is from a local reservation.

Though he’s a little shy at first, Hudson is ready to blossom with patient encouragement to help him build confidence. He’s also a friend to cats and settles down peacefully at night in his crate.
