My name is Wu Litter Styx!

If interested in any of our animals for adoption, or to foster an animal, please fill out the respective application here to get the process started. Visit our FAQ webpage for commonly asked questions about our adoption/foster process.

​ Styx and her siblings were part of an unplanned litter in Detroit.  We were told their mom is a Rottweiler mix (not seeing this at all in the pups) and dad was an unknown stray. While ‘Detroit Special’ isn’t a breed we can select for their profiles, that’s what these pups are. Your breed mix guess is as good as ours! Based on current size, estimated age, and paw size, we expect them to be medium-sized adults.

These pups came to us very skinny and under-socialized. They are looking a lot better after getting regular meals – they LOVE their food. New people, places, and things are all a bit scary. They do warm up as they feel more comfortable, but adopters will need to continue to work to socialize their pup to build confidence and trust. Despite their rough start to life, these pups are very sweet and loving!

Styx is the most timid of the group. It’s heartbreaking to see her cower and tuck her tail when faced with unknown circumstances. Despite being shy, she does still want to engage with her people. She loves to play and can forget to be shy when she’s fetching a toy or playing tug. Each day her foster family sees her getting more and more comfortable.  A home with another dog to show her the ropes may be a good fit.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.
