Happy 5th Birthday to our PUP Alums, Evie and Shifa!

These siblings were born at PUP as 2 of 7 who survived in the litter. A couple weeks later, we noticed that these two puppies were a little different than their siblings - they weren't playing or moving around as much as the other puppies. After a devastating vet appointment, we were told that the puppies likely had neuro-degenerative disease, and were not supposed to live past 6 months. Two of our volunteers agreed to foster the puppies for as long as they lived.

Fast forward to now, these two pups are ✨thriving✨!!! Shifa loves all affection and attention, while Evie loves ball, frisbee and any kind of fetch. They are both entirely mobile and living their best life with the volunteers who switched from Fosters to Adopters. They love exploring trails, running errands, and making new dog friends!

We are soo happy to wish these two dogs a happy happy 5th birthday!!!

✨Meet Yeti and Brita!✨

Here’s what our foster and volunteers have to share about these sweet girls…

Yeti and Brita are sisters who were found abandon on a county road in a remote area at 4 weeks old (see picture below) until they were rescued by a Good Samaritan who brought them to the nearby police department. The police reached out to PUP and arranged for them to come into rescue to find loving homes! 💕

Since arriving at their foster, Yeti and Brita have adjusted great to life in a home! They both have loved learning all about cuddles and love! 💖 Although Brita can be a bit more shy at first, she quickly warms up once the treats come out! They are both very social pups who love to be held and played with! Yeti and Brita are happy, healthy pups and all they need now is a forever home! 🏡

These sisters are about 5 weeks old and we believe they are probably Aussie/Shepherd mixes who will be in the upper end of mid-sized when fully grown. Most puppies from their area have 15-20+ breeds in their DNA.

These two loving pups will be at our adoption event at Pet Evolution this Sunday from 12:30 to 2:30, but will need to stay in their foster home until July 26th.

If you are interested in adopting one of these sweet girls, you can learn more about them and our adoption process at PUPMN.org!

Happy 4th of July! 🎉 Although the 4th can be a fun celebration for humans, it is also the number one day that dogs go missing in the US!

Here are some helpful tips to keep your dog safe during the 4th of July:

🎆 Keep your dog on two points of contact to ensure they don’t bolt (leash them in your fenced-in yard, put a baby gate in front of commonly used doors, etc.)

☎️ Make sure the contact information on your dog’s collar and microchip are up to date with your information and their collar is fitted correctly

🎇 Keep your dog indoors in a calm environment during the fireworks and keep them home during large gatherings

Lucy is a fun, playful, sociable puppy who is about 4 months old. She just returned from a two week family road trip and she is now a certified road warrior. She traveled beautifully, although like most children, she would probably have enjoyed having a few toys to occupy her time. She is quite fond of mini carrots. She has an average energy level, kennels well, enjoys her treats and most of all, loves to play with other similar sized or larger young dogs. While chase-play is great, she is more a wrestler and gnaw on each other kind of player.

Lucy, along with her 4 siblings, was surrendered to pup because the family wanted them to have a good home and felt they were unable to find suitable adopters. The owner reported the pups were born in early March. We believe that Lucy will likely weigh 40 # when full grown. Lucy has webbed toes like a lab, a tail diamond like a shepherd and the coloring of a boxer. She comes by all that quite reasonably. We did DNA testing on one of her siblings and the results came back with 14 breeds with 24% German Shepherd, 16% Australian Cattle dog and the rest Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, American Bulldog, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Siberian Husky, Miniature American Shepherd, Pit bull terrier, Chow, Lab, Malamute, Boxer and White Swiss Shepherd: Also Known As a mixed breed!

Lucy is working on house breaking but she isn’t quite there yet.

When adopting with PUPMN, we provide a list of all nearby veterinary hospitals that will spay/neuter for free once your pup reaches age. If you are interested, please call our number and say you would like to meet Lucy! You will meet her and decide whether she is a good fit before you bring her home.

Our sweet boy, Marvel, is still looking for his loving forever home! 💕

When Marvel first came into the rescue, he was very in need of some good food, medical attention, and most of all, a loving home for him to thrive in. He was born as a stray in a rural area and based on his condition, we think he did not receive much kindness in the early weeks. Based on how he is now, you would never know he had such a rough start.

This once terrified pup has since blossomed in his foster home, trusting humans more and more every day! He has a very strong bond with his foster mom and is eager for attention from her, showing that he wants to find his people and will never leave their side. Though it can take a bit to earn his trust initially, after a few treats and a bit of encouragement, he quickly warms up to new people. It is so heartwarming to watch Marvel play with his toys and see that puppy side of him come out after the rough start he had to life!

He has done great with other dogs and we even think that he may do better in a home with another doggy friend to show him the ropes and help build his confidence, although this is not necessary for his potential adopter.

If you are interested in adopting this adorable pup (I mean look at those ears! 🥰), call his foster (651-645-4370) to set up a meet and greet or stay tuned for our next adoption event! 🐾💗
