Success Stories

These beautiful dogs have joined loving families.

Joey's new mom fell in love with him the moment she met him, and the feeling was mutual! She called Joey's name and he came right to her. As soon as he settles into his new home and the weather warms up, Joey and mom look forward to daily walks together. For now, he loves to play in the snow and catch the snowballs his mom tosses for him in his fenced backyard, and he has already discovered the rabbits and squirrels. Joey's family also includes a canine sister named Stella who is showing him the ropes, as she did for previous MNSR Sheltie Becca. Welcome home, Joey! Adopted 12/26/17. 

Pretty little Ruby's Christmas wish came true when her adoption was made official on Christmas day and her foster home became her forever home! Ruby joins MNSR alum Mindy and Sheltie siblings Rudy and Abbie, a human brother, and her very own young lady mom who has shown her parents that she is ready for the responsibility of taking care of a Sheltie of her own! Adopted 12/25/17. 

Maggie was rescued from neglect after a breeding facility named Country Pride Kennel (now Pine River Stable) in Pine River, MN was raided by the local sheriff. She was relinquished to MNSR and started her new life as a foster dog. She has learned all about the good life from her two foster sisters, Daisy and MNSR alum Cupcake, and her foster brother Jasper. Maggie's foster mom decided that Maggie is home to stay. Maggie enjoys leashed walks in the woods, playing dog games, and hand-targeting for cheese (which she loves!). Adopted 12/25/17. 

Cassie came back to MNSR when her adopters were no longer in a position to be able to care for her. Fortunately we had a past adopter waiting to welcome another wonderful little Sheltie into his heart and his home. Cassie's new dad is committed to her health and plans to walk her daily and give her healthy treats to help maintain the best weight for her well-being. Cassie has already begun to explore her new home, follows dad to go outside and of course at mealtime, and is doing stretchies and wagging her tail! Adopted 12/7/17.
