AHS takes in any animal in need, for any reason. We take in over 22,000 animals each year and have over a 90% placement rate (last month it was nearly 95%)! We not only assist animals and families in our community, we work with organizations nation-wide on a regular basis to move animals from overpopulated areas to areas where spay/neuter campaigns have been very successful and we cannot keep up with demand for pets. Minnesota is one of those places. We are a 501(c)3 and do not get any funding from anywhere except from donors like you. (Thanks for paying my paycheck!)

I have two AHS alums- Sunny the Bunny and Fiona the Cat. Our family absolutely adores them. We are so grateful that AHS could take in Sunny when she was found as a stray in the middle of winter. They provided her with medical care and an opportunity to find just the right family. She initially went home with another family, but when I saw her come back, I knew she wasn't going anywhere but my house!

Fiona came from a partner rescue up north in an area where strays are over-abundant. My 4 year old absolutely loves her (maybe a little too much), and I love having her snuggle up next to me at night. Her favorite toy is a wand with ribbons on it and she loves eating her kibble from food toys. 

Please support animals in our community and abroad with your donation today. Together, we can make happy new beginnings possible! Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
