Morning – Pet Connection

Pet Connection: Meet Gemma

Gemma is an 18-month-old Pit Bull mix who just wants to break out and enjoy life

Gemma is a bundle of energy. She joined us for Pet Connection this week from Homeward Animal Shelter. She’s an 18-month-old Pit Bull mix who just wants to break out and enjoy life. She loves to play, and can be a bit of a playful nibbler. That’s one reason why she would do best in a home with older children….

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Gibbs

FARGO — Little Gibbs the Lab cross is a really, really good boy. And that’s especially impressive because up until he was taken from the pound after almost running out of time, he had very obviously never lived in a house before. Journey Home Animal Rescue Nicole Jorgenson brought Gibbs in to the Morning Show and says when she first…

Pet Connection: Meet Bello

Bello means "beautiful" in Spanish. That perfectly captures this week's Pet Connection cutie

  Bello means “beautiful” in Spanish. That perfectly captures this week’s Pet Connection cutie. Bello is a two-year-old orange tabby from our friends at Homeward Animal Shelter. He is a super sweet cat who loves all people. He really just wants to be a cuddly lap cat. He’s not the biggest fan of dogs. Bello is also positive for feline…

Pet Connection: Meet Gumby

Gumby could be a great bird for someone who might be afraid of the commitment it takes to keep birds as pets

  Gumby could be a great bird for someone who might be afraid of the commitment it takes to keep birds as pets. The 11-year-old White-Capped Pionus is pretty laid back.

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet The St. Patrick’s Day Kittens

FARGO — They’re a lucky little bunch of babies, because this band of brothers with all-Irish-themed names is being raised in a safe, loving foster home after their mother was taken in by a brand-new pet rescue established in Fertile, MN. It’s called Smiley’s Rescue, and it’s a 5013c nonprofit established by a woman in her early 20s who’s got…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Licorice

We can predict she's going to be more popular than the candy.

FARGO — Licorice is a noteworthily divisive candy, but in spite of her shiny black coat, Licorice may be misnamed, because this dog has something to appeal to practically everybody. She’s a one-and-a-half-year-old pit bull mix, and as you can see, she’s got that great big pittie smile and that sweet, cuddly, pittie personality. She has the distinctive forehead wrinkles…

Pet Connection: Meet Confetti

Confetti is such a good dog she shows other pups the ropes of being a pooch

  Confetti is a very well-behaved girl. She knows a whole litany of tricks, including a couple you don’t see very often. The Labrador Retriever / Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler mix has been with 4 Luv of Dog rescue for more than 500 days. And she’s not even three years old. That’s far too long to go without a forever…
