Happy Tails Rescue
Happy Tails Rescue of Minnesota, founded in 2005, is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing homeless and abandoned animals. By working with committed volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians, trainers and boarding facilities, we are able to rescue dogs and cats providing them with loving temporary care until a well-matched, carefully screened forever home can be found.

Their event attendance is based on the availability of their foster family!

Thinking about getting a dog or cat, or a second animal, but not quite sure? This is your chance to see how life would be with a dog, cat, second or third animal without making a lifetime committment.
When fostering for Happy Tails Rescue we supply food, authorized medical expenses, and supplies. You provide a safe and loving temporary home for a dog or cat while they await their forever home. It is a very fun and rewarding experience and a great way to get to know other breeds of dogs and cats and save a life at the same time! We have both short and long term foster opportunities available. And as a foster parent, you always have the first option of adopting your foster animal.
If you are interested in fostering or wish to receive more information, please complete our Foster Home Application
