Thank you. | Beulah Breed: German Short hair Pointer DOB: Approx. 18 months (Jan. 2009) Reason For Surrender: Found Wandering and Very Thin
Beulah is a beautiful young gal. She is full of life and energy. She loves people and other dogs, she is very very friendly and likes to be with you. Beulah is spade and up to date on all of her vaccinations. Beulah is looking for a new furever home that has lots of space for her to run and exercise and for possibly another dog to play with. Beulah does bark at cats but with time can learn to exist with them, she shows no aggression toward them more of a curiosity. Beulah has made many friends upon entering GGOH both human and canine, she is liked by all. Beulah knows some simple commands and does well walking on a leash. Beulah, when arriving to GGOH did have many pressure sores which were consistent with most likely being shut up in a crate that was to small for her for prolonged periods of time. She does not show any apprehensions with kennels or crates despite her possible treatment. Beulah will make a wonderful addition to any family.
Hope Breed: Beagle/Hound mix DOB: Approx. 12 months (June 2009) Reason for Surrender: Running at large
Hope entered GGOH when a concerned citizen phoned us after trying to contact the Sheriff's department for help for this little girl. The concerned citizen was told to leave her be as they, the Sheriff's department, had no where to take her to. This is an ongoing problem in this county, WHY DO WE NOT HAVE ANY WHERE FOR THE ANIMALS TO GO? THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. AS A COUNTY WE MUST ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM, call your County Board Members today and tell them ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! We pay taxes and we need the animals to be treated with respect and to be helped in their time of need. Hope is truly a precious little girl. She is very friendly and likes everyone. She was very thin and was not spade upon her arrival to the program. Hope is now happy, has gained some needed weight, and is awaiting her new furever home. This little gal will do well with another dog as she loves to romp and play with the other rescues of GGOH. She will make somebody a great loyal companion.

My Name is Melle, I am a Bull terrier mix. I am 2 years old, fully vetted and I am spayed.I weigh approximately 50lbs. Melle is a very sweet dog. When you hug her, she whimpers and whines. She's TOTALLY house trained, crate trained, leash trained. Warms up slowly to other dogs but then likes them and plays with them. She has been playing with 4 older dogs and there has been no trouble. Melle does like to chase cats so she would need to be monitored. Melle absolutely adores all people, she loves greeting people in an office area. She is extremely friendly. She can also be a couch potato when she is just relaxing. Melle loves riding shot gun in the car, and she has been enjoying chasing squirrels and mice around the barn where she is currently fostering. Melle will make someone a very special friend. She needs someone who will love and care for her and get her plenty of exercise on a regular basis. If you are fond of the Bull Terrier breed you will love Melle.
 Bailey
Breed: Wire Hair Fox Terrier DOB: Approx. 4/06 Reason for Surrender: Owner Surrender - Moving
Bailey is a darling little Wire Hair Fox Terrier, he is 4 years old, neutered and up to date on all of his vaccinations. Bailey was surrendered to a "kill" shelter by his owner. While a rescue worker was picking up another dog for intake they happen to notice Bailey sitting in his kennel. His kennel card stated he was up to be euthanized soon. With time running out and very little exposure for Bailey to possibly get adopted the rescue worker decided to take Bailey too. Saved from the kill shelter Bailey now faced finding a rescue to help him find a new furever home. Gregory's was contacted and asked if they could help this little guy. GGOH accepted the intake and Bailey's transport was set up. Bailey arrived at GGOH and made friends quickly. He is a very energetic, playful pup who loves people. He is very good with other dogs but does have a few issues with larger dogs. He can be a little irritating to the larger dogs so he could learn some social skills when with his new family. Bailey is a very loving dog who simply needs stable environment to thrive in. Weighing about 22lbs, he is a small bundle of joy. Bailey awaits his new furever home with that very special someone.
Treasure Breed: Purebred Labrador Retriever DOB: Approx. 5 years old Reason for Arrival: Family Moved and Left Behind
Hi our names are Lucy and Treasure, we are 5 year old purebred Labrador Retrievers. Both spayed females. We are up to date on our vaccinations. We are waiting for someone to give us a new furever home. About a week ago our owners lost their home and had to leave us behind. Gregory's was nice enough to let us both in on very short notice as we had run out of options that didn't involve us possibly losing our lives. We are very very sweet girls and would love to go together as we have been best friends and sisters since we were just pups. We understand if that can't happen but we were told we could sure cross our paws and Colleen would cross her fingers that someone would be able to open up their hearts and homes to keep us together. Sometimes it just takes a little magic. We love to play fetch, hang out in the yard and just be together. We sure love attention to and hanging out with the volunteers and staff here at GGOH. We have been outdoor/indoor dogs most of our lives but GGOH says we can now become indoor dogs so we don't always have to be out in the colder and hotter weather. If you think you could show us a chance at a new life together please come meet us we will be waiting.
Gigi Breed: American Stafford Shire Terrier DOB: Approx. 16 months (12/08) Reason For Surrender: Unclaimed Stray
Gigi is a beautiful young gal who is very friendly and energetic. She has been working very hard on her leash walking and is doing very well. Gigi loves all of her other rescue friends at GGOH. She is great with kids and people, she does have to be watched with cats as she is very curious but over time could become very good friends with a feline if given assistance. Gigi joined us here at Gregory's when she was picked up by So. St. Paul police and impounded. Gigi waited but no one came. She was a favorite of the workers so they tried very hard to find a rescue that would help Gigi. No one came again. Then an e-mail was sent to Gregory's asking if we could help. They told Colleen no one had stepped forward to help this sweet dog for months. Gigi had been in impound since August of 2009 but they could not find her help anywhere. GGOH quickly decided that Gigi would come stay with us for awhile, that this beauty needed a chance.
Gigi is a very lovable, playful dog who needs a home where she can romp and play and just be the puppy that she is. Gigi is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations. She weighs approx. 46lbs.
Skye Breed: German Shepherd DOB: Approx. 3 years (03/2007) Reason for Surrender: Family Moving Could Not Keep, New Family Took In then Decided They Could Not Keep
Skye is a sweet, playful, happy soul. She seemed a little frightened and confused upon her arrival as she most likely did not understand why these people she was with just handed her off. Her first family had to move, for whatever reasons, and felt it was just okay to give her away to another family. Then this family decided that Skye did not fit into their household so they drove her to Gregory's and asked to surrender her. After some quick questions by GGOH it was apparent if we did not help most likely this dog would lose her life. She was immediately accepted into the re-home program although we were more than full.
Skye is doing very well at GGOH but deserves to be in a home with a family. She is very friendly once she meets you and wants to please. Skye is up to date on her vaccinations and is spayed. She weighs about 65lbs and is gorgeous.
Raisin
Breed: Purebred Alaskan Malamute DOB: June 30, 2003 Reason for Arrival: Court Ordered/Unfavorable Home Conditions
Raisin is a big , 112 pound, fluffy ball of fur. He loves being a big goofy dog and at times thinks he is a lap dog. Raisin has been with us at GGOH now for several years. He had a short time when he had been adopted by a loving family but they already had another dog who would just not accept Raisin so he was beat up a couple times and then we asked that he be brought back to his home at GGOH. He has always been a gentleman in all his time with us. We love him dearly and he gets along with just about anybody. He loves to go for walks with the volunteers and just hang out. Raisin is also very fond of his grooming sessions that his special friend Tina provides for him. He loves to look good and show you just what a handsome boy he is. Raisin is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations and is just awaiting that special place he can call "his home". If you think you could provide him with a great loving home for his remaining years please contact us.
 Aiden
Breed: American Pitt Bull Terrier DOB: Approx. 3 years (Jan 08) Reason for Surrender: Unclaimed Stray Picked up by Dunn County Humane Society and Slotted for Euthanasia Only Due to His Breed
Gregory's would like to take a moment to honor all of our American Pitt Bull and American Stafford Shire Terrier's who have lost their lives simply because of their breed. Aiden, along with so many others have received such a bad reputation as a breed, not because of what they have done but because of what WE, HUMANS, have done to the breed. People like Michael Vick, who used, abused and tortured these dogs simply for greed. After all that is said and done we place a person like that on a pedestal while we continue to allow the killing of these dogs because of plain ignorance.
I ask all of you who read this ad, look up the breed, see where they came from, who they really are... loyal, dedicated and trustworthy animals that have been made into something they are not and branded by the very humans that used and abused them. Meet Aiden, he is, yes a Pitt Bull, he is 3 years old, neutered, up to date on all of his vaccinations. He is friendly and most of the time thinks he is a lap dog although he weighs approx. 50lbs. Aiden gets along well with other dogs and was indifferent to our cats. Aiden loves car rides, likes to cuddle, play fetch and is very friendly.
If you think you could provide Aiden with a new loving furever home come on out and visit him, he will be waiting patiently.
Sammy and Mia
 Sammy |
 Mia |
Breed: German Shepherd and Chocolate Lab/Sharpei Mix DOB: Both Approx. 4 Years (10/05) Reason for Surrender: Chained Outside/Divorce Situation
Sammy and his housemate Mia came to Gregory's after a divorce left them chained outdoors for days on end. GGOH was contacted when these beautiful dogs were known to be left unattended, chained and questionably fed by their current owner. When questioned it turned out the dogs were kept by one party in a divorce but then were not cared for. When the other party asked for the dogs the first would not relinquish ownership instead they were chained up outside and just left. The owner then decided to move from the property, rent it out and as part of the rental agreement the occupants were to watch over the chained dogs. As you can imagine this just meant more neglect for both Sammy and Mia.
The two made their way to GGOH from Baron county. Due to their age the concerned party did not want to relinquish to the Barron County Humane Society for fear of them being euthanized. Sammy is a very handsome boy who just loves to go on walks. He is very energetic and playful. He weighs approx. 110lbs and is very tall. Mia is a sweet sweet gal who loves to walk and she loves her treats. She is shorter in stature and weighs around 75lbs. They definitely like being together but would do fine in separate homes with loving new families.
Shaney, Miley & Bandit
Breed: Red Healer (Shaney & Miley), Blue Healer/Border Collie DOB: Approx. 2 Years (Shaney), 2 Years (Bandit), Approx. 1 Year (Miley) Reason for Surrender: Strays being abused
Shaney, Miley and Bandit are Red Healers and a Blue Healer/Boarder Collie mix. We came to Gregory's via the Indian reservation after GGOH was contacted, by a special lady Colleen works with, because we were in need of help. She knew GGOH was the place that could help us. After some small children beat Shaney's 3 month old pups to death and were terrorizing Miley and Bandit we had to get them out. Shaney upon arrival was also found to have a broken jaw from being hit by a bat as well as damage to her face and ear. Miley is Shaney's puppy from a previous litter and Bandit is just a tag along friend of theirs. All 3 are the sweetest, friendliest dogs even after going through tough times. All 3 dogs are on the smaller side, the girls weighing 30 and 38lbs and Bandit weighs 45lbs. All are up to date on vaccinations, and will be spayed and neutered before leaving the program. Please find it in your heart to give one of these precious babies a home and let them know that being beaten is not the way theirs lives will be.
Ms. Julie
Breed: Flat Coat Retriever mix DOB: Approx. 9-10 years old Reason for Surrender: Found wandering and never claimed
Hello my name is Ms. Julie, I am a Flat Coat Retriever mix. I am a senior who is looking for a "home" for the holidays. I am spayed and up to date on all of my vaccinations. I was picked up as a stray and no one ever came to claim me. I must have wandered to far from home and with my not so keen eyesight I might have went a little to far. I am around 9 -10 years of age but I have lots of spunk. I can still keep up running with the pups around Gregory's. I am so so friendly, I love people the best but I get along with other dogs and I like cats too. The people her at GGOH are great but I sure do miss having a family and a place to call my own. If you think you would like to give Ms. Julie a great loving home for her to live out her senior years please contact us, she would sure like to meet you.
JACK & ANNIE
Breed: Purebred Jack Russel Terriers DOB: Approx. 4-5 years old (10/09) Reason for Arrival: Abandoned in the country to fend for themselves
Hi our names are Jack and Annie, we are purebred Jack Russel Terriers. We are approximately about 4-5 years old. I, Jack, am a smooth coat JRT and Annie is a broken coat JRT. We came to GGOH after we were dropped off out in the country to fend for ourselves, we are just little dogs what were they thinking? I, Jack am very friendly and outgoing Annie on the other hand is a little more afraid but she is coming around nicely after being at GGOH for a week. She will need some time with her new owners to learn to trust but she is a sweet dog already. Both are adorable and would love to find their very own furever homes. If you are looking for a special little pal come on out and meet these two dolls, they will be hard to resist.
ZOE
Breed: Doberman Pin Mix DOB: Approx. 10/07 Reason For Arrival: Thrown from a moving vehicle into ditch
Zoe is a fun loving female Doberman mix. She is around 2 years old, up to date on vaccinations and spayed. When Zoe first arrived she was very sore from being thrown out of the car in her kennel that she was immediately taken to the veterinarians for a thorough check up. She had some bruising but was otherwise in good health. Zoe quickly took to all of us here at GGOH and is doing very well. She is a very friendly dog who loves to play. Zoey is awaiting her new furever home and would love very much to go "home" for the holidays. Come on out and meet Zoey she is sure to win you over.

Milo, Munch, Frosty, Cuderay and Corky
Breed: German Shep/Yellow & Black Lab mix DOB: 07/01/09 Reason for Arrival: Neglect case
Hello my name is Munch (black) and I am Milo (tan w/mask), I am Cuderay(Yellow), I am Corky (Black with white) and Lastly I am Frosty (Black with white). We are 8 month old siblings who along with our sisters are looking for our new furever homes. You probably remember us, we have been in the ads a few times since arriving at Gregory's back in August 2009.
We came to GGOH with our 6 other siblings and our mom, Lady. Some of us have left the rescue to find new loving homes and some of us are still waiting for the right someone to come along. We are neutered/spayed and up to date on all of our vaccines. I, Munch weigh about 66lbs, Milo about 60lbs, Cuderay, Frosty and Corky all around 58lbs. We are really really sweet, everyone says so, and we love to romp around and play. We are great with other dogs and we are really good with kids and adults. We have been working on leash walking and some general commands with Annie, our volunteer, so we are getting better at listening everyday. We work really hard hoping it will help find us our new homes soon. We came her from the Indian reservation after our mom's owner, who had abused and neglected her, passed away. Our mom then went with a new owner who wasn't very nice to her either and it was really bad when 11 of us pups came along, he didn't even want one dog let alone 12. Gregory's was contacted to see if they could help our mom and her babies and the next thing we knew we were in warm blankies being driven away from the lonely damp dirty dog house we were living in outside.

Peppermint Patty
Update!
 Well its been a few months now since I arrived at GGOH. I was in pretty rough shape but they have taken such good care of me I am now running and just doing my own doggy thing. I have been hanging out with Annie and Ron, and their dog Mya, at their house while Colleen tries to find me a new furever home but now Annie's neighbor has threatened to hurt me, because "she is a big mean fighting dog", to bad he doesn't get it, I am not mean nor are my breed mates, it's people like him, ignorant people, who make my breed mean. Someday people will look past all the bad publicity they like to give my breed and look back to what we were really bred for, we were once called, "the nanny dog". Now I am returning to GGOH while I await a furever home. I am okay with it as I love my friends at Gregory's but I will anxiously be awaiting someone to come sweep me off my paws and take me into their loving home. I survived my cruel previous owner, I survived my numerous litters with no concern for my health, I survived being used as a bait dog for those inhumane people, I survived being almost starved to death then painful heart worm treatment all because some people truly cared, I hung on because I knew there had to be good people out there. I will wait now for the right person to come into my life to share my heart with, just don't make me wait to long.
Love, Gracie(Peppermint Patty)

Breed: American Stafford shire Terrier Age: Approx. 6 years Reason for Surrender: Left for Dead
| I have a wonderful sponsor who is willing to pay 1/2 of my adoption fee to help me find a new home, can you help me? | PP's story is heartbreaking, This is the plea GGOH received regarding Peppermint Patty.
PP was forgotten in the weeds. He no longer wants to breed me. He's bored with that so he stuck me out on the edge on his property and has forgotten me. The neighbors brought me some water and some food but they don't want to do this for long. They want to call the authorities but I will just be killed. Maybe that would be better than being lost in the thistles? The neighbors say that I am a very good girl. I have never been told that before. I like it! They patted me on my head and told me someone would come to help me soon. Will it be you? I hate to ask for help when there are so many lost and forgotten puppies but it sure would be nice to have the ticks off me and a little extra food. Well.and maybe a pat on the head every now and again?
Peppermint Patty (alias Gracie) has been through to much in her lifetime. She has been breed out and then basically left for dead. Please help us help this little sweetheart. P weight about 45 lbs and has the sweetest demeanor even after what hell the humans put her through. If you think you could provide PP with a loving, safe new fur ever home please come out and visit.
Note: Please make sure you do not have any breed bans within your community before applying for adoption.
Gunter
Breed: Minn Pinn mix Age: 12 - 18 months Reason for Surrender: Stray
Gunter is a Minn Pinn/Chihuahua mix who is just a doll. He is about 18lbs and is up to date on all vaccinations and is neutered. Gunter is a lively little guy who is very dog friendly, likes kids and loves people. Gunter was found wandering and no one claimed him in the allotted time so he was up to be destroyed. GGOH stepped in and let me find my home with them for a while. So I am here just hoping someone will come on down and see just what a cutie I am. I would love the chance to be somebodys faithful companion so don't wait to long, stop in and visit, I am sure you will want to take me home with you.
Anikan
Breed: Australian Shepherd Mix DOB: Approx Oct 2006
Reason for Surrender: Brought into program from a Rescue in Alabama due to threat of Euthanasia by county on all dogs at the program (123 dogs lives were threatened)
Anikan is an eager to please young boy. He has warmed up very much since arriving to the program last fall. He loves to be with his MASTER, he is always by your side and is very affectionate once he knows you are the ONE. Anikan is very social once he knows he is in a safe environment. Anikan loves other dogs and has been good with all mixes he has been introduced to. He is fine with cats and likes kids, again once he knows he is safe. Anikan needs to find a home with a family who will give him the time to adapt and will realize he may not be the most affectionate at first until he is acclimated to his new environment. He will need to work on his collar on and leash walking skills and he would need to have a fenced area. He would do fine with another dog for companionship. Anikan likes to chew so he is a good candidate for nylon bones and lots of toys. Anikan is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations.
Alexa
Breed: Australian Shepherd Mix DOB: Approx Oct 2006
Reason for Surrender: Brought into program from a Rescue in Alabama due to threat of Euthanasia by county on all dogs at the program (123 dogs lives were threatened)
Alexa, sister to Anikan, was very friendly from the start. She is very eager to have you pet her and let her know you care. She loves to cuddle with you once she knows who you are and she is the most willing to come right up to you after maybe a bark or two to let you know she is there. Alexa will do very good in a home with another dog for companionship. She is a very sweet gentle girl given the time to warm up and acclimate you will have a very devoted pet on your hands. She does still like to chew so lots of toys and raw hides are a must. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations.
Fiona
Fiona is a Siberian Husky mix. She is about 4 years old, (10/09), spayed and up to date with all vaccinations. Fiona was found running at large and was brought in by animal control to be euthanized. Fiona is patiently awaiting a new forever home. She is a beauty and weighs about 80 lbs. She is friendly and likes most other dogs if introduced correctly. She is very best of friends with Raisin who she adores. They are always out playing together and have their kennels next to each other where they many times lay back to back when they sleep. Fifi, as we call her, is really a sweet dog that deserves a chance at a life with a family and a home. Come on out and meet this beauty, see if she wins your heart over as has all of ours.
