You might think it’s less fun to have one dog than two. Miss Sophia is here to prove you wrong. The year-and-a-half-old husky-shepherd mix came in to Homeward Animal Shelter by way of the pound, and in to the KVRR Morning Show studios via Homeward’s Heather Klefstad. And she was more fun than a barrel of monkeys the whole morning….
We’ve got another Pet Connection success story to share with you. Henery is a Jenday Conrue with a quirky, big personality. He joined us three weeks ago. He snacked on potato chips, chirps, flew around the studio and acted like he owned the place. Now he has a new home for his out-sized personality. C.A.A.R.E. Parrot Rescue says he…
A local animal rescue is looking for your help this morning to help pay the medical bills of a group of birds they rescued from a life of neglect. C.A.A.R.E. paid to take four Macaws and an Umbrella Cockatoo out of a dangerous home. We featured some of the birds on this week’s Pet Connection. Two of the five…
Paco and Maquita are two Macaws who are looking to change their luck in life. C.A.A.R.E. actually went and bought these birds because they were housed in a bad situation. The rescue saved a third bird who needs extensive medical treatments. Paco was kept in a cage that was welded shut. She doesn’t really know how to live outside of…
You can help an 8-week-old puppy get the intensive medical care he needs to thrive and find a forever home. 4 Luv of Dog rescue took in the Blue Heeler pup after his owner couldn’t afford emergency medical care. He suffered some sort of lung trauma. They named him Tony, after Tony Stark/Iron Man. The name is in honor…
What could be better than having a grandpa or grandma? Why, bringing home an extra one, of course. Grandpa the boxer has been around for awhile. He’s 10 this year, which puts him squarely in senior status. And he has a lot of wisdom to share, as you can hear in his live appearance on the Morning Show with Emily…
Our friends at C.A.A.R.E. brought us a bright bird, both literally and figuratively. Henery is a 9-year-old Jenday Conrue. He is a cuddly, affectionate guy who loves his skritches. He, like most birds, also loves junk food. Adam Ladwig got to feed him a sour cream and onion potato chip. He’s so lovable, C.A.A.R.E. volunteer Carrie Leopold tells us…
If there is such a thing as good juju in the universe, this little Juju has plenty of it to share. The sweet, affectionate little dog from the great state of Texas came in to a shelter down south as an owner surrender. Due to shelter overcrowding there, she was shipped up north to the Red River Valley, and she’s…
You’ll probably notice that Audi’s pretty nervous for his visit to the Morning Show. As a matter of fact, he spent most of his live appearance wailing inconsolably in Emily Welker’s arms, trying to hide his pretty face from the camera. As it turns out, it’s the first in a long line of examples of why Audi’s a cat of…
We’ve got another Pet Connection success story to share with you this morning. Pete and Repeat visited us two weeks ago. They are a bonded pair of budgies who were looking for a new home together. Bonded budgies don’t do well if they’re separated, so it was important someone took them both in. Well, a week later they found…
