My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Breed Guess: German Shepherd long hair
Age: 6 years old
Gender: Female
Children: No
Cats: No
Dogs: No
Housebroken: Unknown
Adoption fee: $350
Weight: 88 pounds
Other: Needs fence/no small animals

Sadie needs a dog savvy person that can handle her size and breed! She likes to be the center of attention! Sadie is still slowly being separated from her daughter as they have been together their whole lives and it wasn't doing them any favors. At first she was not handling it well at all, but with some time to destress and lots of love and walks from volunteers, she is slowly getting better. Due to the strong attachment with her daughter, she did not like other dogs near her, and became very leary and unhappy. We are requiring that she be an only dog as it will make it easier for her. Sadie likes to go after small animals when she goes outside so we are requiring that she has a fence and no other animals in her house. If you are interested in adopting this girl, please fill out an application today.

Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet.

The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.

All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, the Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and pups receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies, in compliance with State of Michigan laws. All dogs are also microchipped.

Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $50 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization.

The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan.
