Coon Rapids, Minnesota

A nonprofit organization of volunteers called Northern Lights Greyhound Adoption (NLGA) is committed to educating the public about greyhounds as pets and finding responsible homes for retired racing greyhounds.

I came to the conclusion that starting my own rescue was the greatest way I could help animals after fostering cats and dogs for various regional charities. Why not, when you have marketing and vet tech experience? I have a strong affinity with animals, and I have spent my entire childhood among dogs and cats. About five years ago, I started volunteering at Minneapolis Animal Care and Control, which further strengthened my desire to aid strays.

Angel of Hope Animal Rescue is committed to being a pioneer in animal welfare by forming alliances, spreading knowledge, and encouraging responsible pet ownership. Until our animals are adopted, we offer loving temporary care through our volunteer-focused organization.

In 1987, Minnesota Federated Humane Societies became a legally recognized nonprofit entity. Since then, we have devoted all of our efforts to achieving our main goal: upholding and enforcing Minnesota's animal welfare regulations.

Midwest Animal Rescue & Services (MARS) is dedicated to helping both pet owners and their animals by finding homes for lost, abandoned, and neglected animals, fostering community harmony, and advancing knowledge.

501 (c) (3) non-profit organization Happy Tails Rescue of Minnesota, formed in 2005, is devoted to saving homeless and abandoned animals. We are able to rescue dogs and cats and provide them with loving temporary care until a well-matched, meticulously vetted permanent home can be found by collaborating with dedicated volunteers, foster homes, area vets, trainers, and boarding facilities.
