Adopted Dog Monday

Adoption update from the small dog division!

We at Pet Haven have been busy, busy, busy! In addition to continuing to strengthen our community outreach and relationships by participating in local events like Pride Fest, we've been adopting out dogs just as quickly as they've been coming in! As a volunteer, this is just about the best part of working with Pet Haven....seeing these once hopeless animals go on to loving homes in the Twin Cities.

Within the past week, Radar and Flopsy, papillons from People For Pets in Spencer, Iowa found new homes. These two were previously used as breeder dogs so getting used to family life has been a new process for them.

Shown above is Radar with his new family,Dad - Jamie, Sister - Kate, Mom - Kim, and brothers Fred (smaller Eskimo) and Juneau (bigger Eskimo). Here's an update from Jamie, Radar's new Dad. "Please be assured how dedicated we will be to making Radar one of the family. Equal to and with our other two. We will be patient, astute, loving, affectionate and determined to making him safe, happy and confident in our home."

And we can't forget about Chucky who had a line out the door at the last adoption event at Calhoun Chuck & Don's. Chucky is going to his forever home tonight so I'm sure we'll have an update on him soon!

Adoption Day May 29th-Richfield

Pet Haven's next adoption day is tomorrow, May 29th, at the Richfield Petco from 10-12.It is a special all dog event with dogs from 10lbs to 80lbs. Radar the Papillon will be making his Pet Haven debut.

Chica has been practicing her welcome techniques at one of our boarding partners Pampered Pooch Playground. She is a German shep mix about 3 years old.

Phoebe the collie/hound mix will be waiting to say hello. Her foster mom says she is quite a character.

Susie is looking for her forever family. She would love to meet you tomorrow. Click here for more info on all of the Pet Haven dogs.

May 20th Transport

We had a transport today of four beautiful dogs from People 4 Pets in Spencer Iowa. All made the four hour trek without complaining. While a little confused about their whereabouts all went through the transitions like they somehow knew the best was yet to come. Thanks to Pampered Pooch and all the fosters who opened their homes to take in one of these beauties.

Chica is a shep mix around 3 years old. She has a calm demeanor-kind of a go with the flow kind of gal. Hard to tell what she may be mixed with, possibly husky. She was found as a stray in rural Iowa with her "hubby" Bob.

Bob or "Bob the Builder" as he was called is a 1-2 year old lab. He is around 80lbs and ready to go wherever the action is.



Radar and Flopsy, a Papillon "couple", traveled together in the same crate. They are 6 and 7 years old and oh so sweet. They are purebreds and even have papers. Look for these dogs to be listed on Petfinder soon along with Pet Haven's other wonderful dogs.
