Nesta's Story

Nesta's story begins in a neighborhood where she gave birth without the safety or warmth she desperately needed. Tragically, several of her puppies did not survive the freezing temperatures. A kind community member brought her to us so she and her remaining babies could finally be safe, warm, and cared for. Despite everything she has been through, Nesta is a devoted mother and a gentle, resilient soul. She is currently in a loving foster home where she can focus on raising her puppies in comfort and security. Nesta will need to finish caring for her babies before she is ready for adoption, but we are accepting early interest. If you feel a connection to this brave girl and would like to be considered once she's ready, please contact us at 218‑681‑8045. For now, she's soaking up warmth, good food, and kindness—everything she deserved from the start.

These include proper vaccinations and licensing. Some communities may restrict the number of pets allowed in each household. Be sure to check your local ordinances before attempting to adopt. All adoptions must be done by the person the pet will be living with most of the time. We do not allow pets to be adopted as gifts for other people. You may, however, pay the adoption fee for a pet, and we will provide a “gift certificate,” which allows the recipient to adopt without additional cost.
