Morning – Pet Connection

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Rubix

Let's solve a problem together -- this dog needs a home. Could it be with you?

FARGO — It’s a real puzzle to us why this cute little Rubix — as in Rubik’s cube — hasn’t been adopted yet. He came in to 4 Luv of Dog rescue from the pound, and while they’re not sure exactly what breeds make up his genetic heritage, judging from his blocky face, there might be some Rottweiler going on…

Pet Connection: Get Cozy With Cozy

Cozy is a 3-year-old super soft furball with a very mild temperament

  Cozy is a rarity. Heather Klefstad with Homeward Animal Shelter says only about 20% of orange cats are female. That’s exactly what Cozy is. She’s a 3-year-old super soft furball with a very mild temperament. She’s good with kids, cats and most likely dogs. She will even let you dress her up, which is perfect for Halloween. Here is…

Pet Connection: Meet River

River has a big personality and wants a family to give her all the love, cuddles and attention she craves

  River is a 4-month-old Goldendoodle from the Uffda Animal Rescue in Cando, ND. Unlike some Goldendoodles, she doesn’t seem to be a shedder. She’s a lover. She loves kids, dogs, cats, and playing.

Sneakers is a hoot. The talkative African Grey Parrot joined Pet Connection this week from C.A.A.R.E. in West Fargo. 

  Sneakers is a hoot. The talkative African Grey Parrot joined Pet Connection this week from C.A.A.R.E. in West Fargo. She’s 34-years-old. Birds like her can live to 80, so she’d be a friend for life. Sneakers needs a nice, quiet home. She deals with feather plucking due to stress. She’d do best in a home with no dogs, cats…

Pet Connection: Meet Otis

No matter how soft he looks on your screen, he is so much softer in real life

  Otis is a beauty. No matter how soft he looks on your screen, he is so much softer in real life. He’s a 2 1/2 year-old Tabby/Domestic Long-Hair kitty from Homeward Animal Shelter. Otis is super laid back and loves getting cuddles. He’s gorgeous, with white and grey paws and adorable tufts of hair springing out of his ears….

Pet Connection: Meet Thatcher

Thatcher still has that puppy energy, despite being two years old

  Thatcher still has that puppy energy, despite being two years old. The German Shorthaired Pointer/Lab joins us for this week’s Pet Connection from the Humane Society of the Lakes in Detroit Lakes. They’re working to harness that energy. He’s learning commands like sit and lie down. Thatcher loves other dogs, but focuses too much on cats and small critters…

Pet Connection: Meet Dory

The beautiful Doberman Pincher joined us with her brother back in January. She's still looking for that elusive forever home.

  Dory is back again! The beautiful Doberman Pincher joined us with her brother back in January from 4 Luv of Dog Rescue. She’s still looking for that elusive forever home. Dory is a shy girl. She doesn’t much like other  dogs or cats, but she could get used to living with older kids. Once she does get used to her…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Mechanic

FARGO — There’s really nothing practical about falling in love, but this dog has definitely mastered the mechanics of gaining your affections. Mechanic the mastiff-boxer mix comes to our studio and to 4 Luv of Dog rescue by way of the pound. He’s six years old and neutered, and has truly impeccable manners. As a matter of fact, in his…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Mickey

Just like the cartoon mouse, this dog knows how to look cute for the camera.

FARGO — There’s a saying amongst folks who work on camera for a living that you have to “know your angles.” Mickey might not officially be working as on-camera talent (darn that SAG-AFTRA strike) but he sure loves the camera, and it loves him right back. And so does most of the staff on the KVRR Morning Show, because the…
