My story

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

Meet Jake – Your New Walking Buddy with a Heart of Gold!

Looking for a companion who’s always up for an adventure and will shower you with affection? Meet Jake, our 2-year-old Pit Mix who’s as sweet as a cupcake (without the calories!) and as friendly as your favorite barista.

Jake is the ultimate walking enthusiast. If walking was an Olympic sport, he’d have more gold medals than Michael Phelps. Whether it’s a stroll around the block or a hike through the woods, Jake is ready to lead the way with a wagging tail and a big smile. He’s the kind of dog who believes every blade of grass needs to be sniffed and every squirrel needs to be… observed (from a distance, of course).

But don’t let his athletic side fool you – Jake’s also a master in the art of snuggling. After a good walk, he loves nothing more than curling up next to you on the couch, melting into your lap like a big, warm marshmallow. He’s got a heart as big as his paws, and he’s always ready to share it with anyone who gives him a belly rub.

Jake’s friendly nature means he’s never met a stranger, only friends he hasn’t licked yet. His goofy grin and wagging tail can brighten even the cloudiest of days. Plus, he’s got this adorable habit of tilting his head when you talk to him, as if he’s trying to understand every word – or maybe just figuring out if you’re about to say “walk.”

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’ll keep you active, make you smile, and fill your home with love, Jake is the perfect match. Come meet this sweet, four-legged joy machine today – your new best friend is waiting! He would be best as an only dog.


If interested, please call the shelter at 231-861-5395 and leave a message to be placed on this dog's adoption list. No obligation, but it reserves your place in line on the list. The shelter will contact individuals as they appear on the list.

Ask about adoption transportation assistance if you do not live in the local area.

The adoption fee is $95 and you receive certificates for $50 towards spay/neuter and $10 towards rabies vaccine if not already done. All dogs are heartworm tested, receive a DHLPP, flea and tick treatment, a bordetella vaccination and are dewormed.
