🐶 Pet of the Week: Chandler


🐱 Adoptable Pet: Bruno

Bruno's days of rough life on the streets are behind him. Once he gets his vet work done, he'll be ready to start the good life! We cannot wait to see what his future holds. His stunning coat and big tom cat paws are sure to win you over, if his nice disposition doesn't! We still need to keep an eye on him - he only knows the street life so he probably thinks he needs to still be out there. Check him out in-person: stop in during our open hours every Wednesday 4-7pm and Saturdays 10am-1pm. You can also call 507-895-2066 or email [email protected] for arrangements.
