Adele

Our sweet, shy Adele (8yrs) crossed the Rainbow Bridge March 9th, 2020. She came so far with us and had our love for almost 3 years. She was diagnosed with oral cancer in Nov 2019. Tumor was removed but returned and grew quickly throughout her mouth. Her start with us she was so timid, afraid and nonsocial. This was no longer true. She loved to bonk her nose on our leg for attention. We were able to look her in the eyes, although she most liked to 'back up' for a nice massage. When visitors came, she no longer hid. When they left, she would 'look' for them.

Sparky

Our hearts grieve the loss of Sparky, 14 years old. At our first home visit, he refused to leave me and my then 10-year-old son. Sparky chose us and enriched our lives. He helped us through many family hardships. He loved to “chase” garbage trucks around the inside of our fence on Fridays and then cool himself in the water dish. He covered up his food with a towel when he was done. He provided many life lessons to my son growing up. These 13+ years were too short with you.

Buddy

Ten-year-old Buddy joined his forever family 2/18/2020 and quickly made himself at home in the safe spot they prepared for him. Buddy's new "big" sister Yorkie will show him the ropes, and his parents have set up their home and fenced yard with the comfort and safety of senior dogs in mind. These kind people recently had to say goodbye to two of their sweeties and wanted to help another senior dog who needed them.

Logan

Logan came to MNSR to recover from amputation surgery after he was hit by a car. He was nursed back to health and mobility in his foster home, and after fostering Shelties for years without adopting, and with the permission of the resident cats, Logan was the keeper! He loved to do the 'Sheltie herding run' in the yard, going on walks, and was always happy to have a snuggle. Logan crossed the Rainbow Bridge in February 2020. He was a regular Sheltie ambassador at MNSR events and we miss him dearly.
