New Dog Transports 7/11 and 7/12

Earlier this week Pet Haven had two transports bring us 7 wonderful new dogs. Mike, Teddy, and Sherman came from People for Pets in Spencer Iowa. Thanks to Sheila from BARKMN for bringing our dogs all the way to Lakeville. Your car was brimming with furry friends.

Mike is a tiny little Chihuahua boy. Weighing in at about 6lbs he needs to start eating some cheeseburgers. His foster says he is a real snuggle bunny.

Teddy is a 2 year old Pom that is the cutest ball of fluff. He is playful and has a look in his eye that says "What's next?".

Sherman a 75lb lab has been waiting quite a while at the shelter to have a chance for a new home. Well buddy you are on your way now. Sherman will be hanging out at Pampered Pooch Playground for the next week.

On Sunday we brought in 4 new dogs Chester, Beulah, Libby, and Scooby from Red Lake Rosie's Rescue. Thanks to Jenny for delivering these great dogs to us. No idea how you got so many animals in your car.

Chester is a 40lb lab mix. He is the perfect size for city dwellers and would love daily trips to the dog park. A lake to swim in would be on his dream list too. For the next week Chester will be playing with all the dogs at Auntie Ruth's.

Beulah is a 30lb springer/hound mix. At least that is the mix we are guessing for now. Beulah is a shy girl that is slowly coming out of her shell. She will need a patient home where she can experience new things calmly and gain confidence.

Libby is a 5 year old registered Sheltie. Her AKC name is Liberty Bloosum Carter. She is hanging out in a foster home with two other Shelties. This may be a quick foster failure situation here.

Scooby is a 7 year old registered Sheltie. His AKC name is Prince Scooby III. He slipped out of his collar at the clinic and was found walking down 494. Welcome to the big city Scooby. We will have more info on Petfinder soon. Most of these dogs will be making their debut on Saturday at our adoption events. Check our website for times and locations.

June 14th transport


Cindy and I drove down to Albert Lee to meet up with the People for Pets transport van. Donna and Steph were waiting for us to arrive on a very rainy dreary Monday. But what they had for us brightened our spirits. And we did not even mind standing out in the rain to meet all of the new soon to be Pet Haven dogs. There was Mia the tiny but very vocal beagle.

Then came Frankie a spaniel/lab boy. He has been waiting since December to get out of the shelter. He still has some of that winter weight to lose but now he will be out for daily walks about town. Next was Captain. He is a gorgeous basset who makes you laugh just looking at his face. And he has a big face.

Last but not least came the puppies, Buster, Romeo and Louie. They are springer/beagle 12 week old boys. Thank you to People for Pets for driving most of the way. Pet Haven will take good care of your "cargo'. If anyone is interested in more information on these dogs please email us at dogs@pethavenmn.org. Thanks.
