Chente is a private relinquishment from TX. He is a very LARGE easy-going boy whose foster sometimes forgets he is there.

Unfortunately, Chente has tested positive for heartworm. He is looking for a foster to adopt home that will allow him to live with them while MNBR covers the cost of his heartworm treatment, then adopt him once he is heartworm free.

Meet Martha May #1098! This tiny sweetie is 8 years old and was found as a stray. She is looking for somewhere soft to settle. She has very few requests—a place to sleep, nice humans, and breakfast and supper every day.

Martha May knows her harness means it’s time for a walk, which she enjoys, although she prefers a more leisurely pace. She’s getting on a potty schedule and figuring out what a doggy door is for, but would much rather just spend all her time napping and snuggling. She’d be a great only dog or a companion to another member of the All Day Nap Club. She’d be fine in any kind of home or yard situation. Just bring the snacks!

Martha May has been diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease. While kidney disease is not curable, we can slow the onset and reduce her symptoms with medications and prescription food. By the end of September we will re-run bloodwork and urinalysis to see what improvements have been made.

If you think you could be Martha May’s perfect home, visit https://www.mnbassetrescue.com/adoption for an application.

Lestat is a transfer from El Paso TX where he was found as a stray. This sweet old guy is a bit of a train wreck. Heartworm positive, grade 4 heart murmur, skin infections, intact, and bad teeth. Thankfully his bloodwork and echocardiogram looked good so we were able to get him neutered, clean his teeth, and start his heartworm treatment.

Happily for Lestat he has a special foster to adopt home waiting for him!

Gimli would like to offer everyone a happy belated Hobbit Day (September 22) to all who celebrate. This unique-looking basset-bulldog is 2 years old and weighs a solid 48 pounds. He’s looking for his very own Fellowship and has great FOMO about missing out on his next person.

Gimli is friendly to everyone he meets, offering polite, friendly sniffs. His lifestyle is more laid back, and he’d be great with any kind of home or yard. He’s fine in a crate and could be an only dog or join in on a friendly family. Gimli was found as a stray in Texas and is ready to enjoy the security of a home in Minnesota (although we’re not sure if anyone has warned him about the weather yet.)

Barnaby and four other dachshunds came to MNBR from a cruelty case in TX. He is a low-key guy that enjoys a good lap. He has been grouchy with the other males from the same group, but fine with the females and with males and females not from the group. We’re hopeful it’s just hormones as he was recently neutered.

Hugo and four other dachshunds came to MNBR from a cruelty case in TX. He is a low-key guy that enjoys a good lap. He has been grouchy with the other males from the same group, but fine with the females and with males and females not from the group. We’re hopeful it’s just hormones as he was recently neutered, but he may do best in a home with only female dogs.

Sherman and four other dachshunds came to MNBR from a cruelty case in TX. Sherman was in the worst condition. He was found with his muzzle stuck in a wire cage. His face was covered in abrasions, he had a BCS of 1.5/9, and he weighed only 9 pounds. For some reason (likely hormones) Hugo and Barnaby start fights with him so they are kept separated. He’s a sweet little nugget that gets along well with all the other dogs.
