We have a gorgeous young dog who is perfectly at home in a Fargo winter. So much so he dragged Homeward Animal Shelter’s Heather Klefstad outside in sub-zero temperatures just to film his Pet Connection piece. Bundle up and meet the bundle of energy that is Yukon in today’s Pet Connection. He’s a 2-year-old Husky who needs a family…
We’ve got a different style Pet Connection this week. Our friends at 4 Luv of Dog rescue have a special event this weekend featuring dogs that normally can’t make it to normal events. They’re one-der dogs, dogs who have to be the only dog in their homes. They normally can’t come to events with a bunch of other dogs….
Dominic is a sweetheart according to Heather Klefstad with Homeward Animal Shelter. She says the two-year-old black and white kitty is shy, and would love some time and space to warm up to someone. But once he does, all he wants is cuddles all day. He would probably need to be the only cat in a home. But he’s…
This week we have a pet who is a little bit extra. She has extra personality. It certainly looks like she has some extra fur compared to some cats. She even has some extra toes! Meet the lively Duchess from our friends at the Humane Society of the Lakes in Detroit Lakes. She came to the shelter in September…
Fans of the “mysterious and spooky, ” as the song goes, we may have a match for you in little Mr. Gomez. This beautiful boy comes to us for this week’s Pet Connection courtesy of Kritter Krazy Reptile and Exotic pet rescue. He’s a ball python, which are some of the easiest to care for and handle species of snakes….
Alvin didn’t have the best start to his life. He’s one of four 4 to 5-month-old Shepherd mix puppies surrendered to the Humane Society of the Lakes. They were underfed when they arrived, and they’re a little skittish around people still. But all four are ready for homes! They just need a caring, nurturing home with people ready to…
Boone is a handsome sweetheart with a shy personality that means he’ll need an extra helping hand to come out of his shell. The good-looking guy really needs it, too. He’s been stuck in the shelter now for more than a year and a half. Specifically, Thursday the 16th is his 629th day with Homeward Animal Shelter. No cat wants…
We might not need to bundle up quite so much this morning as we did earlier this week. But this little guy didn’t get the memo. Billy the chinchilla is one of several available at Kritter Krazy Reptile and Exotic Rescue. Chinchillas, with their dense, soft, beautiful fur, are ready for the cold, and for your cuddles. That’s in the…
We’re featuring a shelter for the very first time for this week’s Pet Connection. Meet Thimble and Button from Cat’s Cradle Shelter. During our interview, Button got restless and jumped out of the arms of Natural Pet Center owner Michelle Smith. They’re four-month-old bonded kittens. They’re staying at Natural Pet Center while they’re waiting for a new home. Because…
The shelters are strapped for space this morning. They’re dealing with a lot more animals coming in homeless than usual. It’s the opposite of where we were last year, with all kinds of people looking to adopt for the first time. On the plus side — if you’re looking for a new furry family member, you’ve got a lot to choose…
