Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota

Nearly two decades of unconditional love and tireless rescue efforts. 

Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota (STRMN) has been a beacon of hope for hundreds of dogs, rescuing them from Minnesota and far beyond. Once under our care, each dog is welcomed into the warm embrace of a loving foster family, playing a vital role in the adoption journey, from home visits to continued support post-adoption.

Our commitment to their well-being is unwavering. Every single dog is spayed or neutered, and receives essential health care, including dental work and immunizations. We strive to give every dog and their forever home the best possible start.

A second chance at life. 

Some of our dogs come to us because their owners can no longer care for them. Others are rescued from the grim realities of puppy mills, where they’ve known nothing but confinement and neglect. For these dogs, STRMN is their only chance at a happy life.

Operated entirely by dedicated volunteers, STRMN ensures that every dollar you donate goes directly to the care and placement of these deserving dogs. Some arrive with complex medical needs, and their vet bills can reach thousands of dollars. Your support is crucial in continuing this important mission.

Help us provide a better future for dogs in need. Thank you for considering a gift to Shih Tzu Rescue of Minnesota! 🐾
