“We love Braveheart Rescue because we have Bailey in our lives now. We adopted her from Petco, after a long day of searching for the perfect pup, we went to Petco and there she was. For our son and Bailey it was love at first sight. They are the best of friends! Our little pup is one of the best things that has happened to our family! Thank you, Braveheart Rescue for making our family complete!!”

“Brandi helped me find just the right fit, even though we had a rocky start. It's good to know that dogs with strong personalities can find a happy home -- and be very excellent couch potatoes -- with just a little work and love. I wouldn't trade Kit for any other dog. Brandi and her crew gave both Kit and myself a second chance and we Thank You!”

“We adopted a rescue dog from Braveheart. His name is Jack. He is a very friendly dog....great with kids and other dogs. He is almost 2 yrs old. He is 1/2 St Bernard and 1/2 Australian Shepherd (possibly a Great White Pyrnesse). Braveheart shows great compassion for animals -- saving many dogs from high kill shelters around the country. Jack had his immunizations and had been neutered before we took him home with us. Brandi goes the extra mile in that she rescues not only healthy dogs, but also dogs that need special attention and loving. I admire people like her and her staff for caring for animals the way they do. It is a huge time commitment and financial commitment as well.”

“Friendly and knowledgeable staff, their hearts are dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating their animals. The facility is clean and well maintained with lots of outdoor space for playing. My friend and I both adopted dogs that Brandi rescued all the way from New Mexico. I will definitely point others in the direction of Braveheart when they look to adopt a rescue.”

“I'm sure all shelters care about pets but Braveheart goes above and beyond that, we adopted a boxer from this shelter at the beginning of this year . The whole staff was exceptionally kind and helpful, and asked us to keep in touch, send pictures and to this day remember us and our pet. We recommend Braveheart to anyone looking to adopt, they are the best.”

“Early in 2009 we were looking for a boxer and found that Braveheart had one. We drove almost 2 hours to get to Hastings MN and found Braveheart animal rescue. When we got there the place was so nice and well taken care of and many dogs to choose from. Well they brought us out the boxer we were interested in and fell in love with the dog right off the start. We have had this boxer now since Feb. and has been by far the best dog we ever had. I contribute all this to Brandi and her staff at Braveheart. I would definitely go back to Braveheart for any future dogs and to recommend anyone to do the same. FIVE STARS to Braveheart.”

“Only those that truly see animals as they truly are they able to learn from these great teachers. And those that rescue these great teachers give us a gift like no other. Those at Braveheart know the true meaning of love and they give their time so the animals may walk proudly again.”

“Braveheart Rescue is about the dogs not politics. Everyone works together as a team. Each person treats the dogs with love and respect. There is integrity from the top down. They are a rescue that could easily be a model for rescues throughout the U.S.A.”

“Brandi and her staff do a fantastic job working with all of these dogs, in getting them healthy (physically and emotionally), well adjusted to being around people and other dogs, and well trained. It is always a JOY to see these dogs blossom under Brandi's care!

“Braveheart Rescue is an organization that does amazing things to help rescue animals, train, treat and groom them, and then place them in wonderful homes. The loving acts of the Braveheart Rescue providers and staff is, beyond a doubt, full of genuine care, kindness and passion directed at saving dogs and giving them a safe and happy life.  “

“Braveheart Rescue is trying to rescue EVERY dog and Brandi and her staff work hard to make sure the dog is physically and emotionally ready for a new home. This is a rescue that not only cares but always goes so much more than that extra mile.

“It was evident when I visited the Braveheart dogs, how much care and love are given to them on a every day basis. My new family member that I adopted clearly had been loved and well taken care of by Brandi and the volunteers.

“The volunteers are amazing! Braveheart Rescue provides an enriching environment for these animals that society has cast out. The animals experience what it feels like to be loved.”

“My friend Kathy just adopted a Chow-St Bernard mix now named Teddy. Teddy is so sweet, I got to meet her and even at first meeting she was ok with my giving her hugs and kisses. I think both Kathy and Teddy are so lucky to have found each other. Thanks Braveheart!”
