The organization rescues dogs, cats, and critters from local impounds, owner surrenders, high-K*ll shelters throughout the US, and help with local hoarding and puppy mill situations. These animals are placed in loving volunteer foster homes all over the state of Minnesota, where they are cared for until they find their forever adoptive families.
