FARGO — They say good things come in small packages, and dogs don’t come a whole lot smaller than Uncle the Chihuahua. He’s still at puppy at only seven months old, but he’s already picked up some great manners. He’s got a very laid back disposition for a breed that’s widely understood to be prone to anxiety, and in spite…
Gizmo’s volunteer handler from CAARE Avian Rescue claimed he had woken up on the wrong side of the cage the morning of Pet Connection. If this is Gizmo grumpy, we can’t imagine how friendly he is when he’s well-rested. Because the first thing the 35-year-old cockatoo did was hop on board Emily just as she was about to read the…
This week’s pet comes to us from the Humane Society of the Lakes in Detroit Lakes, and he’s had some significant suffering in his life. The coonhound mix came in from animal control with a couple of other dogs, and Jethro had a noticeable limp. Rescue workers took him to the vet, where they discovered the 11-year-old coonhound mix had…
FARGO — We have a really sweet guest for Pet Connection this week. Halo the tuxedo cat was here on the Morning Show, thanks to Homeward Animal Shelter’s Heather Klefstad. He’s practically an angel, he’s so well-behaved — hence the name. And the eight-and-a-half-year-old domestic medium hair isn’t just sweet in disposition. His blood sugar’s sweet, too, because Halo has…
We call him Smiley Wylie around here. Wylie has an infectious energy and loves to be around people. He joins us for this week’s Pet Connection from 4 Luv of Dog Rescue. Wylie is a 5-year-old Labrador Retriever Mix. He’s a big boy at nearly 90 pounds. He wants to hang out with people, go out and play with…
We’ve got a little gray cutie this week for Pet Connection. Smokey comes from our friends at the Lake of the Woods Humane Society in Baudette, Minnesota. She’s about 11 weeks old now. She came to the shelter with her mom and 3 siblings. But she’s ready so strike out on her own. Smokey is looking for a loving…
Good Knight! Knight is a big boy who joined us for this week’s Pet Connection. He’s a 3-year-old lab mix at Homeward Animal Shelter in Fargo. He’s strong, so you’ll need to keep a strong grip on your leash. But he’s just a big old lovebug. He loves people and would go great in a home with other dogs…
They are bursting at the seams at Homeward Animal Shelter. They’re being forced to keep dogs in hallways and offices, and they’re running out of room. So we need to pick up the pace helping dogs find loving homes. They are especially loaded with huskies right now. And it’s never been easier or more affordable to bring a new…
Meet Cooper! He is the first bird to join us in a while from the Center for Avian Adoption, Rescue, and Education in West Fargo. He’s a 25-year-old White Capped Pionus. They can live 30 to 40 years, so you could still have a long time with a new companion. They call birds feathered friends, and Cooper certainly fits…
Dallas is an adorable little puppy. He’s an eight-week-old German Shepard mix who lives in Cando, ND at the Uffda Animal Rescue. A kind person found him roaming the streets covered in ticks. But since he came into the shelter, he’s been growing like a weed. Dallas is super-friendly. He loves people, other dogs, playing with cats, and kids…
