This page is dedicated in loving memory to the MNSR foster and adopted Shelties who are waiting for us at the Rainbow Bridge.
Rainbow Bridge Stories
 Luna came into rescue at 10 years of age with untreated heartworm disease. This left her immune-compromised. A wonderful couple who had previously adopted from MNSR saw a beautiful Sheltie girl who needed a loving family, and took her in to give her her best life. Luna enjoyed overseeing her large property from her condo balcony, telling the squirrels what was what, socializing with the human neighbors, and being treated like a queen by her mom and dad. Luna crossed the Rainbow Bridge on January 24th, 2020 and is very missed. |
 Rose found her best forever home at the age of 13 with a loving, compassionate couple who adopt senior Shelties who most need them. With her new Sheltie friend Tukker, also adopted as a senior, Rose got to experience running at a fenced dog park for the first time, tasted wild raspberries, and celebrated her 14th birthday with a new dog bed just for her. She was so happy with her forever family, as she experienced a lifetime of love and joy with them. Rose joined their previous Shelties at the Rainbow Bridge on January 20th, 2020. We are grateful Rose was chosen by these special people and that she chose them as her family. |
 Merit came into rescue from a puppy mill where she spent the first 2 1/2 years in a confined area. Her foster mom helped her to learn how to live in a home and what it meant to be part of a loving family. Soon, it was clear that Merit's foster mom could not part with her and they became a forever family. Merit helped many new foster Shelties over the years. They gravitated towards her due to her easygoing personality. After a very loving life with her forever mom, Merit gained her angel wings on January 9th, 2020, reuniting at the Rainbow Bridge with her siblings Shep, Fletcher, Alex and Kayce. |
 After nursing Mick back to health after leg surgery, his foster family realized Mick had found his best and last home with them and made it permanent. He loves his walks, loved greeting people, and he charmed everyone with his happy smile. Mick crossed the Rainbow Bridge on January 7th, 2020. Mick had a long, happy life with us, and I'll always be grateful to MNSR for the opportunity to share that as part of our family. |
