ADOPTABLE Dogs

scooter 13

PENDING!  Meet Scooby! 

LONGEST RESIDENT
At just 18 months old and 64 pounds, Scooter is a big-headed, ridiculously handsome pit mix with an even bigger heart. He’s all puppy enthusiasm wrapped up in a strong, goofy body — and he’s still learning the rules of life.
Scooby hasn’t always had people show up for him. He’s been let down more than once, and we’ve promised him that won’t happen again. What he needs now is a committed family who will continue his training and show him that forever really means forever.
The good stuff:
• Rings the bell to go outside
• Knows “sit”
• Knows “down” (about 50% of the time — he’s working on it!)
• Offers both paws like a total gentleman
• Crate trained/House trained
• Dog friendly
• Has not met a cat
• Kids 8+ (he’s strong and energetic and sometimes forgets he’s not a lap dog)
• Pretty good on leash with minimal reminders
• Professional-level kisser 
Scooby is playful, affectionate, and full of life. He loves to move, loves to learn, and would thrive with someone who enjoys training and keeping an active young dog mentally and physically engaged. A fenced-in yard is a must.
If you’re ready to invest in a loyal, hilarious, big-hearted best friend who just needs someone to believe in him, Scooter is ready to meet you.
Neutered, current vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped.

jiffy 24 scaled

Meet Jiffy — she’s looking for a very special kind of adopter. 

Jiffy is about 1 year old, 30 pounds, and a true little Detroit Special — DNA test pending!

Jiffy is not the kind of dog who is going to run up to you asking for affection or attention. Not yet.

When Jiffy came into rescue, she was facing euthanasia in an overcrowded shelter. She was absolutely terrified. The pressure sores on her body told part of her story — a life where she likely spent far too much time confined and had never really learned what it meant to be part of a family. She came to us dirty and scared, with so much to learn about simply living in a home.

And she is learning. 

Jiffy is dog friendly, cat curious, crate trained, and house trained. She looks to other dogs for confidence, which is why her new home MUST have another confident, social dog who can help show her the ropes.

She also MUST have a secure fenced-in yard.

A quieter home would be best for Jiffy. She does not need Grand Central Station — she needs routine, patience, stability, and humans willing to let her move at her own pace.

One of the most remarkable things about Jiffy is that through all of her fear, uncertainty, and the gentle pushing she has needed to help her learn, she has never shown aggression. Not even a growl. She is simply a scared little dog trying to understand a world she was never properly introduced to.

Jiffy needs an adopter who truly wants to make a difference in a dog’s life. Someone who understands that the reward may not come overnight. Her milestones may look different than other dogs — choosing to stay in the same room, coming a little closer, following her dog friend, or someday deciding that being loved feels pretty good.

Because Jiffy will need several meet-and-greets before going home, adopters must live within approximately 30 minutes of ZIP code 48022.

~Spayed
~Current on vaccines
~Heartworm negative
~Microchipped
~House trained
~Crate trained

Jiffy wants to learn. She wants to grow. She just needs someone willing to give her the time and safety to discover what the best life can actually be.

Maybe you’re not looking for the easiest dog. Maybe you’re looking for the one who needs you most.

Could that be Jiffy? 

iggy pop 5

Meet Iggy Pop! 

Iggy Pop is a 1-year-old, 85-pound big boy with a DNA test to prove he’s quite the mix:

50% Siberian Husky
20% Boerboel
12% Neapolitan Mastiff

Iggy is dog friendly and is currently fostered with cats, too.

He is a young, strong guy who will need a confident, consistent adopter committed to continuing his training, structure, and boundaries so he can keep becoming the best dog he can be.

~Crate trained
~House trained
~Dog friendly
~Fostered with cats

Iggy is looking for someone who appreciates a big personality in a big package and is ready to keep helping him learn and grow.

Could Iggy Pop be your new best friend? 

 

mcfly 3 scaled

PENDING! Meet McFly! 

McFly is an 18-month-old Corgi mix weighing about 20 pounds, and this happy little guy always seems to have a smile on his face! 

McFly is a fun, sweet boy who loves to play but is also more than happy to settle in for some snuggles. He LOVES fetch… although he hasn’t quite figured out that bringing the toy back is part of the game yet. 

~Dog friendly with proper introductions
~Cat curious
~Chicken curious
~Great in the car
~Good for baths and nail trims
~Loves to play fetch
~Loves getting his sniffer going on walks
~Loves to snuggle
~House trained
~Crate trained

McFly is neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm negative, and microchipped.

He’s a cheerful, goofy little guy looking for a family who will appreciate his big personality packed into a 20-pound body.

If you’re looking for a happy little sidekick for walks, adventures, couch time, and some slightly unsuccessful games of fetch, McFly might be your guy! 

knox 20 scaled

Meet Knox! 

Knox is a 5 year-old, 60-pound Pit mix and one incredibly sweet girl. She is calm, cuddly, listens SO well, and truly lives to please her people. 

Knox is crate trained and house trained and would love a home where she can soak up all the attention and snuggles.

She is not a match for cats or small animals. Knox will need a meet-and-greet with any resident dogs and seems to prefer calm male dogs.

This girl has been given up on SO many times and we promised her that will never happen again.

If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate girl who wants nothing more than to be your best friend, Knox might be your girl.
