Sweet Dixie was only with us for four days. Why has she left?! Because it was brought to our attention that one of her owners really wanted to hold onto her, and has had her since she was just a pup, over nine years ago. However they are experiencing some life transitions and are working to find pet friendly housing. Thankfully we were able to provide resources, including Puppa’s Pals, and we were able to coordinate to help a potential foster apply and get approved and facilitate move to a crisis respite foster. Keeping pets with their families, especially when that’s the only life they’ve know for nine years.. is absolutely the best case scenario.

This 501c3 has been around since 2022 based out of the twin ports, and we have made several referrals their way. Check out their social media or website to find out how to get involved and what they do for animals and their owners in our local area!

Is anyone in the Twin Ports area in need of some canned KD cat food?

*This is prescription cat food for cats with kidney disease. If you are in need of food for your healthy cat, we may also be able to help.

**This food had a use by date of 11/23.

***Puppa’s Pals is not responsible for an individual’s decision to use out of date goods. However, it is known that product quality in air tight, sealed packaging can far exceed its use by date.

Pick up in West Duluth/Spirit Valley. If transportation is a barrier, let us know, we may be able to help.

234 days with her respite foster family while her owner worked on finding affordable + pibble friendly housing. Layla got to go HOME! ❤️

Reuniting pets with their owners is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do! When we found out Layla’s owner was able to secure housing for them, we were sooo excited!

It’s always bittersweet when you share your heart with a pet you know is staying short term. Knowing they get to go back to their person, and seeing just how excited they are, helps ease that adjustment.

We were able to send Layla with a nice bundle of supplies to help offset expenses for her person, thanks largely to Feeding Furry Friends Duluth Superior Area Community Foundation and Chewy
