Meet Hatty
The Minnesota Wild is pleased to welcome the franchise's fifth team dog, Hatty. Hatty joins the Wild as part of the team's Adopt-A-Dog program. The program's mission is to give a local hero their own hero.
Hatty will be a frequent visitor to the Wild offices and will occasionally visit practice at TRIA Rink at the Treasure Island Center. Fans will have the opportunity to meet Hatty at most Wild home games during the 2023 - 2024 season and other appearances throughout the year.

About the Adopt-A-Dog Process
Adoption
The Minnesota Wild adopted Hatty from Coco's Heart Dog Rescue, a local non-profit organization that rescues dogs from unfortunate situations.
Training
While under our care, Hatty will receive basic training from Wild staff for a period of one year preparing her for service training. Wild staff will also socialize Hatty by bringing her to Wild games and other public events.
Service Training
In the summer of 2024, the Wild will donate Hatty to Soldier's 6, a local non-profit that provides honorably discharged veterans and first responders who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) a specially trained K-9. Hatty will complete a 4-6 month training and certification in partnership with KLN/NutriSource.
Forever Home
After the service training is complete and Hatty has received the proper certification, Soldier's 6 will place her with a deserving service member or first responder with PTSD at no cost to the recipient.
Please consider making a donation to Coco's Heart Dog Rescue and Solider's 6. Your donation supports these organizations on their mission to rescue, train and place dogs like ours.
