Mother's Day is coming up and this is going to be my request!
Featured Pet


Let’s give a big round of applause to Piper for the amazing progress he has made in his foster home 👏🏻
Piper is originally from the streets of Afghanistan. We aren’t sure what his past looks like, but we do know this gorgeous fella had a hard time adjusting to his new life in Minnesota. Thankfully, he has an amazing foster family that’s provided him with structure, adventures, and so much love.
Piper keeps making progress with reactivity towards dogs/people and gets so excited to try new things. His recent adventures include nature trails, a Sniffspot, and his very own Toppl (which he hugs while he eats). Once he gets to know other people or dogs, he is a loyal companion. He loves to relax on the couch, go for walks, and get belly rubs from his favorite people.
Please share with people who might be able to offer him the calm, supportive, and engaging home he deserves! You can read more about him at ndlbrescue.org/adoptable-dogs/#action_0=pet&animalID_0=20537131&petIndex_0=44

🩺🌍 World Health Day Feature: Pee Air Lover Boy’s Fresh Start 🌍🩺
For 10 years, Pee Air Lover Boy was used only for one thing—breeding.
No walks.
No toys.
No real home.
No one to love him back.
But rescue changed everything.
This World Health Day, we’re celebrating second chances—starting with this sweet Frenchie who’s finally getting the medical care and affection he’s always deserved. Pee Air came to us under-socialized and unfamiliar with even basic things like stairs, but with patience and vet care, he’s now thriving.
✅ Fully vetted
✅ Neutered and microchipped
✅ Vaccines, preventatives, and more included
He’s learning to potty outside, loves his treats and chew bones, and is a world-class napper (complete with an adorable “Superman pose” when he flops down flat). 🦸♂️💤
Pee Air gets along with dogs, ignores cats, and follows his foster mom around the house like the loyal little lovebug he is. 💛
💬 His only ask? A soft bed, a warm heart, and a home where he finally gets to be the baby.
💌 Adopt Pee Air Lover Boy and be part of his healing journey. His adoption fee helps cover his full medical care, because every rescue dog deserves to feel as good as they look.

Experienced Foster Needed – Help Augie Thrive
🐾 Augie (aka Booker) is looking for an experienced foster who understands dogs with big hearts and big feelings—and is ready to provide the structure, stability, and love he needs to shine.
About Augie:
💛Male | 6 years old | 73 lbs | Lab mix
💛Potty trained and loves fetch
💛Gentle and affectionate once comfortable
💛Currently on daily anxiety medication that must be given every morning—it's essential for his well-being and must be continued consistently
Foster must-haves:
⚠️ No children under 10 (loud, unpredictable energy makes him nervous)
⚠️ Must be the only dog
⚠️ Needs clear food boundaries—no free feeding
🏡 With the right person, Augie is a total sweetheart—he loves being with his person, playing outside, and curling up for cuddles. He just needs a calm, predictable environment and someone who will advocate for him.
If you’ve fostered dogs like Augie before—or you’ve got the heart and experience to help him continue healing—he’s SO worth it.
📩 Reach out today to give this lovable boy the second chance he deserves.
