Jasper’s story is one he almost didn’t live to tell on Pet Connection. Homeward Animal Shelter’s Heather Klefstad says he came in as a stray, and severely underweight — only about six pounds on his full-grown, 13-year-old frame. Homeward workers also realized his back legs weren’t coordinating when he walked, and worked with the veterinarian to find out what the…
They call her tiger, but in spite of her coat, this week’s Pet Connection is all dog. A lot of dog, in fact. Her name is Carly, and she comes to us from 4 Luv of Dog in the metro. She was given up by her owner, and the shelter volunteers believe she’s an American bulldog mix, possibly with…
Since we only have an hour on the Morning Show instead of our usual two hours, this week’s Pet Connection is a short one. But that’s okay, because this week’s pet is a very short horse.

The pretty, personable almost-8-year old tortoiseshell domestic shorthair isn’t just full of sweet words of endearment for a potential…
This dog’s pictures, and video, just don’t do her justice. The girl with the sleek, shining gray coat and soulful light brown eyes is about as elegant a pittie as we’ve ever seen. Marney is a 2-year-old pit bull terrier who came into the 4 Luv of Dog shelter from the Wahpeton pound. Rescue workers aren’t sure about much of…
Handsome Hammy the pit bull is looking for a forever home on this week’s live in-studio Pet Connection, and he is a real hunk of love. The 2-year-old young gentleman was found in the Wahpeton pound and brought back to the metro by rescuers at 4 Luv of Dog shelter. Cindy Holtan brought the sturdy, cuddly fellow in with her…
They don’t come much more lovable than Leonard — or more lovely, for that matter. He made the rounds asking all of us in the studio for pets and scratches when he came in with Homeward Animal Shelter’s Heather Klefstad.
