Story
Turn on `You`ll Be in My Heart` by Phil Collins while you read about Tarzan! The king of the shelter is a 4-year-old hound mix who has an upbeat attitude and energy that will keep you active and entertained! He loves to run and play with people and the other big dogs at the shelter. He`s an endlessly sweet boy who will stare up at you in admiration if you`re willing to scratch his ears. Tarzan is a smart boy who`s learned `sit,` `down,` and `up for hugs`! While Tarzan loves other dogs and his people, he can feel a little insecure and unsafe when they approach his food, so he`s looking for a family willing to feed him in a separate space and provide him with the feeling of security he needs! Tarzan is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

Story
Meet Tucker! He`s a six-year-old, 55.9-pound Blue Heeler and Border Collie mix who`s shy and sweet. Tucker takes some time to open up to strangers, but once he feels comfortable and has a few treats, he likes to get petted and play with you! Tucker previously lived with another dog but would appreciate a meet and greet with your current dog to ensure they`ll be buddies. He loves all toys, likes to sneak onto the furniture, and is fully potty trained! Tucker would do best in a home without young children but could succeed with older kids who understand he needs some boundaries.Tucker is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

Story
This girl is a stunner, and she knows it! Charlie is a sweet and friendly, 2-year-old, 68.6-pound Siberian Husky mix who came to the shelter from the reservation up north. She has the classic husky personality that we all know and love. She`s extremely playful, excited, and vocal! She loves people and even has some canine pals at the shelter. She can be a little picky with her dog friends, so please bring your pups in for a meet and greet to ensure they get along well. Charlie is pretty good at going potty outside but has had a couple of accidents at the shelter. We think in a home environment, she`ll do great! Charlie is your gal if you’re looking for a fun, energetic angel!Charlie is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. You can visit this pretty girl at the shelter from 8:30 to 5:00 PM on Tuesdays through Sundays!

Story
This dog rocks! Rocky is a three-year-old, 53-pound Australian Cattle Dog mix who came to the shelter all the way from Texas. This boy is immediately best friends with everyone he meets. He loves to run straight up to you for scratches and pets and gives many kisses in return. Rocky is a very food-motivated boy who sits nicely when you have a treat. Before arriving at The Babinski Foundation, Rocky lived with a loving foster who stated that he was fully potty trained with a proper routine! He did so well in a home environment, showing that he was such a sweet, sensitive, loyal, and loving boy!Rocky is a heartworm-positive pup, so he`s available for foster to adopt until his treatment through The Babinski Foundation resolves. He`ll be a happy and healthy boy in no time under our care!If you`d like to meet this sweet boy, please give us a call at (218) 838 3017 to schedule a meeting with his current foster!Rocky is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!
