Our Mission

Dogs Are Our Mission
The founders of Humble Hounds MN have always been very passionate about making sure all animals, especially dogs have a good home. This has now been brought to the next level as we move forward on our mission of finding the forever homes that every dog deserves.

Adoption Policy

Our adoption process:

1. Completing an Adoption Application - We screen potential adopters very carefully in order to find the best possible match for both you and our foster dogs. All adoptions are expected to be lifetime commitment!

You must be at least 21 years of age to apply for adoption.

We require that you complete the entire application. If your application is not complete, it will not be processed. This includes references.


2. Veterinarian and Personal Reference Check

All pets in your home MUST be up to date on all vaccinations, receive heartworm preventive, and MUST be spayed/neutered.

Once your references are checked, a volunteer will contact you to schedule a home visit (may be a virtual visit).


3. Home Visit

The purpose of the home visit is to inspect the surroundings in which our foster dogs will live, meet all household family members, address any major concerns, and get to know you better. (We are not at your home to pass judgment on your housekeeping skills.)


4. Adoption Fee

Our adoption fee is based on the age and health of our dogs. We will not negotiate adoption fees. This is not a "sale" but a fee that enables us to continue to help more dogs in the future. Our adoption fee is non-refundable and applicable MN sales tax will be added at the time of adoption

Your adoption fee covers:
• Physical veterinarian exam
•Neuter/Spay
•Rabies
•DHLPP
•Heartworm Test (age appropriate)
•Fecal Test and any necessary worming
•Microchip implant and registration
•Any other treatment deemed necessary by our vet

As you can see, our adoption fee covers numerous expenses. We will provide copies of all services rendered while the dog has been in rescue.

We will disclose all known behaviors, health or emotional issues prior to adoption.

5. Finalizing the adoption

Humble Hounds MN will go over and provide you with copies of:

•Complete signed adoption agreement
•spay/neuter contract (if applicable)
•all vet and shelter records


•About your new dog

After going over all adoption paperwork, HHMN will collect the full adoption fee, including all applicable MN Sales Tax. You must pay adoption fee and tax with cash, check ,money order, Venmo or PayPal.
