Thinking about adopting a puppy in Minnesota or South Dakota? Litters come through Rescue Network all year — many from overcrowded shelters and rural communities — and every one of them grows up in a foster home, not a kennel. That means socialized puppies whose fosters can tell you honestly what each one is like.
The grid below shows every dog under a year old in the network right now. Litters go quickly, so if the right puppy isn’t here today, apply now and be approved before the next one lands. And once your puppy is home, the 3-3-3 rule is the settling-in guide we hand every adopter.

Foster a litter.
Puppies can’t wait in shelters — they need homes from day one. We cover vet care, food, and supplies; you provide the puppy pile. Litter fosters are some of the most-needed volunteers in the network.
