Aussie Rescue of Minnesota
Our Mission
Aussie Rescue of Minnesota, Inc. (ARM) is a dedicated 501(c)(3) non-profit adoption and referral organization committed to placing abandoned Australian Shepherds into loving, permanent homes. We believe every Aussie deserves a life filled with purpose, care, and a family to call their own.
Why We Are Here
The Australian Shepherd is a remarkable breed—intelligent, energetic, and brimming with a love for work. Developed in the American West to herd livestock on vast open ranges, these dogs require meaningful activity to focus their sharp minds and herding instincts. We exist to ensure these smart, versatile companions find homes that understand and appreciate their unique nature.
Our Commitment to Care
At ARM, we operate through a dedicated network of volunteers who provide compassionate foster homes for our dogs until they find their perfect match. Because we prioritize the health and well-being of every animal, all of our rescues are temperament tested, spayed or neutered, microchipped, and brought current on vaccinations before adoption. By living in foster environments, our dogs receive individualized attention and love while they prepare for their next chapter.
Finding Your Perfect Match
We believe that a successful adoption is a partnership built on a great fit. Because Aussies are high-energy dogs that thrive on activity, we strive to match each dog’s personality and working instinct with the right lifestyle. Our thorough application process ensures that we understand your home environment, helping us create lasting connections that bring joy to both the human and the dog.
